Who is old enough to remember this with McDonald’s?

What REALLY got people upset and ultimately ended the Styrofoam containers was the McDLT. It came in a Styrofoam container about 2.5 times as wide, with half of the burger on each side. The ads touted that the container "keeps the cool side cool and the hot side hot" and you were supposed to put it together just before you eat it for maximum freshness. The tree huggers lost their minds and a year later McDonald's was using cardboard containers.

Despite the fact that that sht would never be allowed in my body..

YES

I also well remember ( great advertising )

" 3 all beef patties , special sauce , lettuce , cheese on a sesame seed bun "

Promoted by Australia cricket too.

[Jersey2]

2 all beef patties*

[molonski2]

Yes typo on the run..

But I'm VERY happy that it's typed incorrectly , otherwise these killers have achieved what they set out to achieve.
It's bad enough that I know it ! That's utterly horrendous.

[Natasha1995]

No, I've never seen these. It seems like a lot a waste material. Can these even be recycled?

[Pohjolan]

In theory yes but its not really practical.

[RageBabe]

No, I don't remember when McDonald's used that packaging.

[RageBabe]

@Oliverlogan263 Thank you for the MHO!

I did not know that they've discontinued the Styrofoam containers. I have eaten a burger there at least once in the past 30 years, but I didn't notice. When did this happen? I'm not a big fan, obviously, but I do like their coffee and egg McMuffins. The coffee has dramatically improved. It was the most vile liquid back in the 1990s and probably earlier too.

[AviatorTom]

I remember styrofoam, and all the complaints when they switched to cardboard.

The styrofoam containers did keep the contents warm longer than the cardboard ones do.

[genericname85]

i'm old enough to remember the happy meal transformer dinosaurs. one of them looked like this packaging.

[Chazmatazz269]

Yup, and the McDLT package keeping the hot side hot and the cool side cool until it was time eat. Ell oh ell!

[najekim]

I remember when they were 10 cents for a cheeseburger. Tasted better too!

[Oliverlogan263]

The good old days

[sage2021]

Naturally I would be old enough but I remember them to be yellow 🟡💛

[Joshydavid25]

Yeah, since it probably wasn't super long ago, then yeah I definitely remember it.. LOL..

[MannMitAntworten]

I remember when they started using styrofoam. Before everything was just wrapped.

[Iron_Man]

they still use it the one that I go to, but it’s paper looks like it

[NathanDavis]

I can hear the horrible sound just by looking at this...

[Wiredone]

I remember those. The big mac just barely fit in there. Now they are so much smaller

[MrJMM]

Not me. I was probably not even born yet to see it.

[ManOnFire]

Wowwww I haven't seen that in a long time.

[douride2]

They may have been around but there was no Mc Ds here.

[Finchie40]

[exitseven]

Yes, they reallt kept the hamburgers warm.

[jazzy34]
