In the beginning

In the beginning...
FRENCH FRIES were made from real,  fresh,  potatoes...pealed, washed , and fresh fried in peanut oil. Delicious.
MILK SHAKES were hand made with real ice cream and milk, made to order.
HAMBURGERS actually had that beefy flavor.
COKE was made with real sugar (not corn sweeteners)
TODAY.... lots of improvements and additions to the menu. But with the evolution of the food industry.... everything made cheaper and faster with more additives...well the wholesome natural flavor is long gone.
The breakfast sandwiches is the only good items left in the menu... lunch / dinner items are a bust.
The taunted new fresh all beef, fresh cooked, burgers... not impressed at all. Originally advertised as fresh cooked to order, I thought I'd  try them. I got my fresh cooked to order burger in less than two minutes. Fresh cooked to order? Beefy flavor? ... not really. French fries... Same old,  same old,  barely warm cardboard fries.  Milkshakes... lots of artificial flavor in an emulsified solution... is that really 100 % dairy? But... the Coca-Cola is still enjoyable.
All in all... Everything was much better in the 60s. Limited menu... drive up only... but still was the best.
