I can't count the number of times I heard, "We have McDonald's at home." Pan fried ground beef on white Wonder bread was not McDonald's, LOL. And the fries, I still love the fries and I don't even eat fast food.
I had the birthday party. I think I was 10. I loved it! And when out army base got a McDonald's when I was 15...I practically lived there.
As for my kids, I took them on payday. That was it, it was a treat. I can't imagine what parents do now with inflations being the way it is. The last time my husband and I went to McDonald's (here in Canada) was a few months ago. He had a craving. $26 later... I'm sorry but the better part of $30 for fast food? Nope, never again.
Thanks for the memories. I enjoyed this.
