Thanks for the memory stroll, Allegra!

Used to ride my bike there. 

And back then....you actually saw them being grilled/fried, not taken from.....wherever that 'thing' is called.

I remember our parents taking us to a McDonald's occasionally as a little kid when we were stationed in Whidbey Island, WA.  I don't remember what the prices were then, but I do remember they pretty much only had burgers, fries and drinks.  I used to love my burger, fries and milkshake.  I don't know when the Big Mac came along, but I was in high school before I tackled one of those.  LOL

I "tried" one of their new Angus burgers the other day -- never again, it was gross and their fries have not been the same since the green police made them change their oil.

I haven't been to a Mickey D's in a while.  Sounds like I'm not missing anything.   :laugh:

Bring back the beef tallow!  Seriously, their fries have been inedible since they changed - used to be the best before that.

Back when the U.S. dollar was worth near a buck.  When if you were earning $30K per year, you were doing well.

I remember the cheeseburger when it was 25 cents. You had to walk up to the window and get the food then eat on the patio or in the car..LOL

Unfortunately that means that the menu also indicates just how debased the US dollar has become in the course of a few decades.
