Here's The Fast Food People We're Obsessed With The Year You Were Born

McDonald's French Fries

This may be hard to believe, but up until 1949, McDonald's burgers were sold with potato chips on the side. In 1949, French fries were introduced on menus, replacing potato chips.

McDonald's Filet-O-Fish

Introduced in 1963, the Filet-O-Fish was launched as an alternative for Roman Catholics who were fasting from meat during Lent.

Burger King Yumbo

Introduced in 1968, the Yumbo was a ham and cheese sandwich sold on a sub roll. It remained on the menu until 1974 when it was discontinued.

McDonald's Big Mac

Almost fifty years ago, the classic McDonald's Big Mac was added to menus at all McDonald's locations across the country.

Jack-In-The-Box Frings

A crazy hybrid between French fries and onion rings, Frings were onion rings made to look like curly fries. They didn't last long, sadly.

Arby's Roast Beef

In 1971, the classic Arby's roast beef recipe that we all know and love was first introduced on menus across the country.

McDonald's Quarter Pounder

The infamous Quarter Pounder and Quarter Pounder with Cheese are added to McDonald's menus across the nation in the early 1970s.

McDonald's Egg McMuffin

In 1975, breakfast first became a fast food meal with the introduction of the Egg McMuffin.

McDonald's McSpaghetti

This pasta dish from McDonald's was introduced on menus in the U.S. in 1976 and didn't last long. However, it's still available at some international Mickey D's locations across the globe.

Arby's Arby-Q Sandwich

In 1977, the classic Arby's Arby-Q sandwich first debuted on menus nationwide.

McDonald's Onion Nuggets

These babies only remained on the menu for a short time and not much is known about them, but we can imagine the mash-up of onion rings and chicken nuggets was a little too onion-y for customers.

McDonald's Happy Meals

The game was changed for kids meals in 1979 when the Happy Meal was launched on McDonald's national menu. Children now received smaller portions, a fun toy, and cool packaging with their meals.

McDonald's McPizza

In 1980, McDonald's decided to try it's hand at being a pizzeria, but it wasn't very well received. Customers thought the fast food chain should stick to fries and burgers, thank you very much.

McDonald's Chicken McNuggets

It wasn't until 1983 that these classic chicken nuggets were added to McDonald's menus across the country.

Taco Bell Taco Salad

In 1984, Taco Bell gave its healthier diners a new option with the introduction of the taco salad, served in a crunchy hard-shell bowl.

Taco Bell Seafood Salads

In 1986, Taco Bell stepped up its taco salad game with the introduction of Seafood Salads. We're not sure if we would trust seafood from Taco Bell, though...
