Do you remember the McPizza? 

No Title

No Description

McDonald’s first debuted its pizza in the ’80s. Other pizza chains like Pizza Hut laughed at McDonald’s for even attempting the feat, even running ads in the newspaper. If you grew up in the late ’80s and ’90s, the pizza craze brings back memories of when you could order a pizza alongside your burgers and fries. 

Why Did McPizza Fail In Michigan?

The McPizza was introduced in the 1980s. It didn’t fly in the Cliff Notes version because it took a long time to make one.

It took too long to prepare… that’s it. Drive-thru was becoming popular then, and there was no way to keep the line moving when someone ordered a McPizza. If people would have only ordered it inside, there would never have been a problem.

McDonald’s Twitter account in 2020 reminisced about its lost pizza, tweeting, ” Remember when we sold McPizza?” 

Who Still Wants A McPizza? Can You Say Road Trip?

There is still one McDonald’s store in the United States—a mega-location in Orlando, Florida. The Orlando location is one of the largest McDonald’s locations and features a special menu that serves pasta, Belgian waffles, and pizza. And hold on to something! They also serve McSpaghetti!

 The world’s largest McDonald’s is 19.000 square feet and is located in Orlando, Florida, on International Drive. Its official name is the World’s Largest McDonald’s.

How Does McPizza Taste? Only One Man For This Job

 From Barstool Sports. Starting as a video series, Dave “El Presidente” Portnoy has created a cult following of people giving “one bite” pizza reviews by the common man for the common man. Dave did a review on McDonald’s McPizza.

Dave is at the world’s largest McDonald’s in Orlando, Florida, and discovers that they serve pizza with actual pizza ovens. Will it be any good?

10 Discontinued Fast Food Items We Want Back

When it comes to fast food, there are certain menu items that have become cult classics. In spite of their popularity, however, these items often disappear without warning, leaving fans heartbroken. Food fans around the world rejoiced when the Mexican Pizza returned to Taco Bell. And they’re letting you vote on bringing back one of two items.  But are there others out there? Absolutely! Here’s another cool list 

Here are Big Jim’s House Top Ten discontinued fast food items that we’d love to see make a comeback.

We we talking about the Little Caesars Big Deal Veal sandwich and we found it!

  • The McDLT

    The McDLT was a sandwich that was available at McDonald’s from 1984 to 1991. The sandwich consisted of a hamburger with lettuce and tomato on one side of the bun, and a hot dog with ketchup and mustard on the other side of the bun. The idea behind the sandwich was that you could eat the hot side hot and the cool side cool. Unfortunately, the sandwich was discontinued due to complaints about the styrofoam packaging that it came in.

  • The Enormous Omelette Sandwich at BK

    The Enormous Omelette Sandwich was available at Burger King from 1989 to 1991. The sandwich consisted of three eggs, ham, bacon, American cheese, and mayonnaise on a sesame seed bun. The sandwich was discontinued due to poor sales.

  • The BK Broiler

    The BK Broiler was available at Burger King from 1990 to 2001. The sandwich consisted of a chicken breast fillet that had been marinated in a special sauce and then grilled. It came with lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and cheese on a sesame seed bun. The sandwich was discontinued due to poor sales.

  • The Arch Deluxe

    The Arch Deluxe was a burger that was available at McDonald’s from 1996 to 2000. The burger consisted of a quarter-pound beef patty, bacon, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and secret sauce on a sesame seed bun. The burger was discontinued due to poor sales.

  • KFC Double Down

    The double down from KFC was a fan favorite when it was first introduced, and people were devastated when it was taken off the menu. The sandwich consists of two pieces of fried chicken with bacon, cheese, and sauce in between. It’s hearty, filling, and absolutely delicious. We can only hope that KFC will bring it back someday soon.

  • Cini-Minis from BK

    The Cini-Minis were cinnamon rolls that were available at Burger King from 1989 to 2016. The rolls were served warm and came with a vanilla icing dipping sauce. They were discontinued due to poor sales but have since been brought back as a limited-time offer.

  • Big N' Tasty from McDonalds

    The Big N’ Tasty was a burger that was available at McDonald’s from 2001 to 2006. The burger consisted of a quarter-pound beef patty, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, ketchup, and mayonnaise on a sesame seed bun. It was discontinued due to poor sales.

  • BK BLT

    This sandwich from Burger King was a twist on the classic BLT. It featured four strips of bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a toasted sesame seed bun. It was discontinued in 2013.
