Hey All,

What fast-food item do you want to see back on the menu at your favorite fast food place? Here's my list:

McDonald's-Cheddar Melt and McDLT. The McDLT was like a BLT hamburger with the meat patty kept hot and the condiments kept cold. It was a two-sided container sandwich that you "put together" by joining the two buns together.

Arby's-Baked Potatoes (They had them in the 80's-the Taco one was AWESOME!)

Burger King- French Chicken Sandwich. This had Ham, Dijon Mustard, and melted Swiss Cheese! Loved it!

McDonald's McRib brought back permanently, not just for those limited runs.

BK also had a ham and cheese sandwich that was made on their long buns, that I loved. For now, I just get the Jr. ham and cheese at Arby's.

Some Taco Bells, not all, have the chili cheese burrito, which I always order whenever I see it. I can't eat anything too hard or "chunky" and that is one of those things that it's easy for me to eat.

Pizza Hut also had a thing called a Priazzo, I think that's how it's spelled. It was a stuffed pizza, or something like that. It's been such a long time, and I don't remember exactly about it but man, it was so good!!

Wow! I thought that was one that most wouldn't remember. :eek: It was good but it was gone in no time.

Another one I'd like to see again is Hardees roast beef sandwich, it was better than Arby's.

Seems like it's been 30 years since Taco Bell quit making Bell Burgers.
I wish they would bring those back.

No, these were kind of like Sloppy Joes, But they used their taco meat and seasoning and put it on Hamburger buns instead of taco shells.

Taco Bell "The Bell beefer" I sure miss that thing. It was discontinued back in the early 1980s and I don't know why. It was a favorite among people. And McDonalds Mc DLT I loved that one too. YUMMMMMMMM

Its been mentioned here but I'll mention it again:

McDonalds-McRib. Hell to the yeah!!! That was so awesome and why they dont bring it back, I'll never know.

Subway-Chicken Pizzola. Always an awesome meal. Maybe they'll bring it back. Also when I first ate Subway, they used to have BBQ Rib and you could get that as a 6 inch or footlong. That was really good too.

I was reading some of McDonald's failures that are no longer around. Some of these I never knew of before:


McLobster:

Comes on a bun similar to the McRib and consists of white lobster meat w/ McLobster sauce and shredded lettuce.

It didn't catch on and it still has limited runs today but they are almost exclusive to the New England states; Maine, New Hampshire...





Hula Burger:

Created by Ray Croc, the founder of McDonald's, for the Catholics who did not eat meat on Fridays.

It was a grilled pineapple slice topped with cheese on a hamburger bun.

It didn't catch on because people simply did not like how it tasted and preferred the fish sandwich instead.





Pizza / McPizza:

At one point McDonald's did in fact serve pizza. McDonald's pizza was introduced in the late 1980s to offer customers more "dinner-fare".

The pizza took longer to make and the customers simply were not willing to wait for it. McDonald's couldn't compete with the other fast-food pizza chains like Pizza Hut and Domino's.

Around the same time a McPizza came along, which was similar to a Pizza Hot Pocket, that also failed to catch on.





McDonald's TV-like Dinners:

McDonald's served mini-dinners when they tried to offer more of a variety. They would consist of some sort of pasta with mashed potatoes and vegetables.





Arch Deluxe:

The biggest flop of the McDonald's franchise. The Arch Deluxe came around in 1996 and was meant for McDonald's "adult customers".

The burger was a quarter-pounder with peppered bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese, onions, ketchup and a secret sauce.

The Arch Deluxe failed to catch on and McDonald's promoted it with a $100 million dollar marketing campaign.

Burger King's jalapeno and mozzarrella sticks. So delicious. Also Burger King's oreo shakes. So much better then Jack & The Boxes because BK's had big oreo chunks instead of ground up ones.

Where did you read that about McDonalds failures that you mentioned above? It seems like a very interesting read?

Various articles I found from google search.

I searched "discontinued McDonald's menu items" and "failed McDonald's products"

I saw all of this stuff on a documentary I saw on Netflix once. It was very interesting even though I don't eat at McDonald's
