Everyone's fries suck. They need to go back to cooking in beef fat.

Yes, still have one. It's no longer a taco bell but a Mexican fast food place still.

There's at least one still standing in Austin but it hasn't been a Taco Bell in a long time.  It was a used car lot for many years.  I think it's vacant now.

Man, I miss the old Burger Chef's! They made all the rest look like dog food palaces.

The 1 BK we had in my hometown wasn't until the early 70's. I don't remember it looking that way, but WTF- I AM old... & damn proud I made it this far.

Yep. I'm too young to remember the BK appearance, but the old school taco bell existed when I was old enough to drive there.

All the Burger King restaurants here in PA were originally Carrol's restaurants.

I was a kid, but we used to eat there and I thought they were good burgers in the 70's.

Hell, most food was 10 times better than it is now.

Real french fries in lard, dammit!

Yep lived in Cali for a short time when I was very young, one of my memories was walking with my folks to a Taco Bell like that. Didn't have playgrounds back then either as I recall.

Growing up in the 80's in NJ, we had McDonalds, Burger King, White Castle, Wendy's, Roy Rogers, Arby's, Taco Bell, Dairy Queen (just ice cream back then), KFC (but we never got it, always got Chicken Holiday), Pizza Hut (rarely went, plenty of excellent local pizza joints), and then there were the diners... oh the diners.

You mean Kentucky Fried Chicken. Not KFC back then.

Never heard of Chicken Holiday.

I remember Roy Rogers. We also had Burger Chef in Parsippany when I was young. Loved that place!

Some people may see this and think “Wow! $0.23 for a hamburger!”

I think “Wow! Not only was our currency once not inflating at an ever-increasing rate, but it was so stable that people bought real signs with prices on them!”

Those remembering Arthur Treachers Fish, I remembered a while back finding out there are some still open.

Looks like NY, NJ, &Ohio have some.

20 years before my time, but I'm sure the food was much better. I know the cars were much cooler, and the women were women, and most of the men were men.

I do remember eating at A&W when the root beer came out in frosty mugs and the food was darn good as well.

Haven't seen an A&W in many years, but last time I did see one the root beer came out in a paper cup and the food sucked.
