Our family did not go to fast food places when I would have been young enough to remember that. Plus, it seemed like Burger Chef was more popular here.
I do remember when McDonald's looked like this, but we didn't have one in our town or even very near, that I can remember. And actually even when we were traveling on vacations from Florida to Ohio in the summertime to visit our relatives, I don't remember seeing them.There was an occasional A&W Root Beer drive in that we would stop at, which was always a treat because they'd bring the Root Beer in frosty mugs and attach the little tray on the window sill of the car. That was always fun! However, we mostly stopped at roadside parks while traveling and my mother made us sandwiches to eat! Those were the days, my friend...I wish they'd never ended!!
I didn't have fast food until I was a teenager, and my first experience was with White Castle. And, not that far from where I lived, Jack in the Box. Then there was Horn and Hardart, but I don't know that it could truly be considered fast food.
Hi Martha, I don't remember them looking like this, either, but perhaps it was different here in Montreal, anyway! Thank you so much for sharing this! I was born in 1956 (October), and my parents and I did not go out for a meal often.

ReplyDeleteYep! I absolutely do. And I also remember the aforementioned A&W drive-ins and Burger Chefs, too.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember them looking like this, but it took some time for McDonalds to show up in our area. It was a big deal when the first one came.

ReplyDeleteI do!
ReplyDeleteNope, that was way before I ever saw a McDonalds. They didn't make it to my neck of the woods until the early 1970s.
