I never thought McDonalds food was so great. Even their french fries aren’t much better than other fast food joints.
But at one time they had these things, instead of onion rings, they were like chunks of onion deep fried. My God, were they good!! Anyone remember what they were called, when did they get rid of them, and why? WHY!?! Any former Mickey D slaves out there?
Arby’s has something very similar. It is like Onion “flakes”, that are deep fried. My wife loves them. I don’t recall McDonalds ever having something like that, but I do remember the ill fated “Oriental” series of food they tried to push off on us. What a joke.

Wienerschnitzel and Del Taco have better fries than McD’s or Jack-in-the-Box. MO.

And what’s with this latest product, the McSalad or whatever it’s called? The commercials act like it’s an advance in salad science for the good of all mankind, but it just looks like salad in a cup to me. And how does shaking it get dressing all over the lettuce, since the cup is pretty well chock full? The whole thing looks very unappetizing.
Does anyone remember a parody commercial on Saturday Night Live a couple of years ago for a fast food item called the Shredder. It imitated the style of fast-edited, kids-zipping-around commercials. It was supposed to be for an item which was just a cup of shredded cabbage with an accompanying container of mayonnaise that you could shake into it. Was that commercial after the McSalad was introduced, or did somebody at McDonald’s see it and steal the idea?
