Discontinued McDonalds Items That We Want Back

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.

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.

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.

@Meton2526 6 ай бұрын

I worked at a McDonald's when the chicken selects were around, and they were what I ate most often. Thing is, they were an exacerbated form of "best right from the fryer." If they sat in the hot-box for the full 20 minutes they were allowed by policy, they took a noticeable hit to quality, and quite often bad employees would just reset the timer instead of throwing them out and making more. Since they weren't a core item and didn't have good turnover, it was quite frequent when I'd jump onto the cook like (I was a shift manager and floated around wherever needed more hands,) and would pull out the hot drawer to find chicken selects that had obviously been there way too long, but the timer showed they were good for another 15 minutes.

Spurlock lied through his teeth the entire documentary and also failed to disclose that many of the calories he was getting were from the alcohol that he was addicted to. Big Head does an excellent job at taking down all of his claims, though it wasn't known at the time that he was an alcoholic when he ran his "experiment." On top of that, he was only asked to Super Size four times, which _supposedly_ meant he only did it 4 times out of 60 lunch and dinner meals in a month. Yet somehow that still meant that Super Sizing was the problem and not the alcohol.

There was a steak sandwich before the one mentioned here that Im guessing was at my nearby McDs in the early 70s in Milwaukee. That place seemed to have a lot of things that were early or didnt show up elsewhere. They even had a McSalad Bar which was a little stainless steel cart type salad bar that was rolled out. There was a very brief time at that location where I could get all the things on my favorite McD meal simultaneously and that was the first steak sandwich, the thing that became the onion nuggets, and the salad bar. It was like the fast food version of a stop at a supper club which I suspect is the reason that the next chopped steak sandwich was shooting for when they made it evenings only.

I worked at McDonald's during the Arch Deluxe days. The only good thing about that sandwich was the bacon. It was regular bacon, formed into a circle, with a LOT of pepper on it. It was so good. Back in those days we were allowed 1 free meal per full time shift so I'd make myself a cheeseburger with the peppery bacon and it was awesome. Their regular bacon just isn't the same.

I used to really enjoy the salad shakers easy to grab one for lunch. My dad and I used to enjoy the chicken selects as well. In 2013 they had the full size wraps and around 2002 they had this flatbread/pita thing that I also really liked. And of course... the bigger "grand" mac.

I really miss the Mushroom and Swiss burger they made in 1994. I briefly worked for McDonald's when I was in high school, and we would make double mushroom and swiss burgers for our dinner breaks.

No mention of the jalapeno mcdouble, or BBQ ranch burger? Not even a grilled onion cheddar? Were snack wraps a fever dream when I worked at McDonald's? 2015 McDonald's menu was GOATED. Cheese sticks and bundt cakes? We don't know we're in the good times until they're gone.

I loved the snack wraps. No idea why they discontinued them a few years ago. They were awesome and especially good for low carb (the wrap was way better than any bun). Now I’m fat.

@fredfry5100 6 ай бұрын

what I want of see is a list of their promotion and special items. Recently they had a spiderverse burger, and currently they have a Ninja and Samurai burger (at select stores that, of course, are nowhere near me). I want to see a list so I can bother some youtube chef into recreating them.

The arch deluxe was amazing. I wish it would come back. They still serve hot mustard in my town. Other things that were awesome that were discontinued: butterfinger mcflurry, fruit and yogurt parfait, strawberry sundae, southwest chicken salad, the old milkshakes from the 90s, and the strawberries & cream pies which are still around but seasonal.

The reason why so many of these discontinued items are still available in Orlando is because the World's Largest McDonald's is located on International Drive, and they have a few other flagship/experimental locations in the tourist corridor. Orlando itself is a test market for a lot of chain restaurants (it's home to the world headquarters of Darden Restaurants as well), due to its service economy, influx of tourists from all over the country and world to allow for large varied sample sizes, and the fact that Central Florida really doesn't have a food culture all its own.
