Weird History Food is gonna buy and fly to McDonald's for their Discontinued Menu Items. Sadly, McDonald's menu Items don't last forever. With the ever-changing fast-food landscape, these McDonald's treats just couldn't keep up. Some of these delicacies never got a chance to shine and were retired before they could find an audience. Others were just questionable ideas with unfortunate slogans.

    No mention of snack wraps?!? Those were delicious! They need to bring them back! πŸ˜”

    The Blueberry McWafflestick is the breakfast item that I miss most. There were two varieties, blueberry and plain. The gimmick was that the syrup was built into the McWafflestick and it didn't spill. I think this was a test market item here in S. Florida back in the late '90s.

    When I worked at McDonalds in 1997, we had an "all you can eat breakfast buffet" with 20 items. Just me and another woman who ran it. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were the only days it ran in the morning. We were probably a test store for it. Because that McDonalds was right off the interstate, and one of the top performing stores in Minnesota.
  • 1. Chicken select 2. Mozzarella stick 3. Snack wraps 4. Mighty wings 5. Frutopia fruit juice

    I saw "onion nuggets" and you had me. That sounds so good

    I miss the original McDonald's apple pie. Deep fried like an egg roll, the crunchy crust was the best.

    I LOVED the Salad Shakers when they were still around. Made complete sense to me. The chicken selects were actually pretty good when they first rolled them out too. As for the Super Size thing, sales dropped because that campaign became a PR nightmare after Morgan Spurlock released Super Size Me.

    "The hot stays hot, and the cool stays cool" was the McDLT's catch phrase.

    For me, seeing what the ads looked like in the 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s are what's truly fascinating about this video

    The Big 'N Tasty, The Arch Deluxe, and the Angus Burger were 3 of the best burgers I've ever tasted at McDonald's. It's like we can't have anything nice 😠
  • @nannerz1994
    I want the shaker salads or just any salad so badly because there's not always a Wendy's around

    Here in Brazil we still Have the Cheddar Melt (also double Cheddar melt) and its the number 2 in sales for macdonalds in our country. We also have a Big Tasty, but Macfish was been gone for few years already T-T

    I remember my dad either had a bad experience with the Big N' Tasty when I was a kid or just plain didn't like it at all and started calling it the "Big N' Nasty". πŸ˜… I also never knew that hot mustard was given the ax; it's been an option at every McDonald's I've been to my whole life. 😲

    the original chicken selects were SO FREAKING DELICIOUS!!! I was beyond sad when they were first discontinued but also when I heard they made a comeback only to try them and find out they were nothing at all like the original.
  • @ThatLuk3
    The chicken wraps! Why does everyone always forget about McDonald's chicken wraps in every discontinued list no one ever mentions them 😩 they were so good
  • @Alabenson
    The Arch Deluxe was my absolute favorite when it was on the menu. It helped that I was possibly the ideal target for their marketing; I was just growing out of ordering happy meals, and the "McDonalds burger for mature adults" was very appealing.
  • My dad has worked for the McDonalds Corp for about 25-30 yrs, so every iteration of these has made their way into our house for as long as I can remember. My favorites were the Chicken Select strips, the Philly Cheesesteak (probably only available in Philly markets. My brother and I would FIGHT over this) and the McWings. The grilled and crispy chicken on top of the salads were tasty too!
