Here, for a while at McDonaldโ€™s there was a ๐Ÿ” called โ€œthe 1955โ€ and it was the best, big pieces of onion, an special sauce, buns and big piece of beef with bacon (for Europe standards anyways) it disappeared once and came back for an encore only to be removed again and never return.

Taco Bellโ€™s Volcano Taco. They brought it back for like a month and took it away again. Technically itโ€™s still available in Kuwait but I canโ€™t get anyone to mail me a bag of the sauce.

Yes! When taco bell was going for spice and flavor and not just trying to find new ways to add more cheese to everything.

I remember the time when Subway used to serve their sandwiches with the strip of bread on top. Those were the good old days.

You can still get it that way!

Just ask for it โ€˜cut old styleโ€™.

unfortunately most people working at subway now are young, and have no idea what youโ€™re talking about.

you canโ€™t even order a subway melt anymore without explaining what it is.

Burger King chicken nuggets from the 90s, before the recipe changed to crap. If I had to pick a flavor that I associate with my childhood, this would be it.

The Angus Mushroom & Swiss burger from McDonaldโ€™s. The Angus was the closest thing they ever had to a real burger, but they were too expensive for most people and were eventually discontinued. Fun fact: wages have stagnated yet their basic burgers now cost more than the Angus did.

Wendyโ€™s ruined the bacon too. Itโ€™s the same garbage youโ€™d get at Burger King, and itโ€™s significantly smaller and tastes worse than the bacon they were using a year or so ago.

Omg the McDonaldโ€™s Angus burgers were FIRE. I ate wayyyy too many of the Bacon and Cheese ones and occasionally the Mushroom. I even loved they got put in their boxes with the paper burger holders LIKE EVERY BURGER FUCKING SHOULD.

Taco Bell Choco-Taco. Yeah, the reanimated corpse of it lives on in some gas station frozen sections, but itโ€™s a shitty product. The original one sold at Taco Bell in the 90s was god tier.

I hate to tell you, but even the shitty Choco Tacos were discontinued a few years ago

It doesnโ€™t matter. They were dead to me a long time ago.

Did you ever look at the nutritional information on the original Choco Taco?

I think one taco had about 50% of your recommended daily amount of saturated fat.

Caramel apple empanadas were exactly what I was looking for in this comment section. Those were absolutely incredible.

The double decker is still around, they call it something else, but you can still order it.
