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! 😔

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

    The Mushroom & Swiss Angus burger 😭 please come back!

    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 breakfast burrito that was formerly discontinued is back on the menu, but when it was first introduced, a chicken fajita with onions and grilled peppers was also offered for lunch. I was working at McDonalds at the time, and if you ate one fresh, they were pretty delicious. Some stores even offered packets of sour cream for them. Those were the days!

    The McSalad Shaker was still part of hungarian McDonalds' menu in the early 2010s. I was a fan of it, and still miss it somedays.

    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.

    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.
  • @Babbleplay
    It amuses me that some of the food items have backstory and lore and trivia, while others just get a brief 'It was here, it sold poorly, and it was gone'.
  • @superjonboy873
    When the chicken selects came out they were one of the best chicken strips I had ever tasted. I miss the salads and parfaits also.
  • @mikeygraves16
    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 😠
  • @chardude
    I saw "onion nuggets" and you had me. That sounds so good
  • Anyone else notice how the food just looks better quality in the ads back in the day than it does today?
  • @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
  • @nannerz1994
    I want the shaker salads or just any salad so badly because there's not always a Wendy's around
  • @larryperry884
    They also had chicken fajitas when I was a kid. Those were amazing. Also the snack wraps were really good too
  • @Drumboardist
    I miss the Steak Egg & Cheese Bagel sammich they had during breakfast. Those things were a hoooot mess of grease and onions, but so good.
