>>8766764
I miss 90's soda porn commercials

>>8766208
I imagine this failed almost entirely due to the fact that McDonald's can't use decent lettuce and tomatoes to save their lives.
So instead of what you see in the ad where everything works and looks like food, you instead get a soggy piece of grey lettuce and a hard, barely-pink tomato slice lazily drooping off the side of the top bun (which is of course cold).

Meanwhile, the regular sandwich at least looks like a cheeseburger from the outside.
We all know what a McDonald's burger looks like, and we can eat it. And we all know what it looks like after you take it apart, which is why we don't tend to lift the bun.

Did the higher-ups really believe their marketing so much that they thought their restaurants actually used good ingredients?

I could probably have eaten with this family without fearing for my lift.
Also note the wife attempting to cuck her hubby.

>>8765550
>we do it all for you

What? Afraid they'll steal your /fit/ powers?

You don't see ads like this anymore. This ad promotes a solid black family unit.

These days you see ads about an interracial couple or about a "strong" black single mother.

>>8766208
stupid gimmick burger

>>8769837
They felt a little more family oriented, they wanted it to feel like a treat to go out for something fast and cheap. Now it's about extra convenience, which is still fast and cheap, but it's for young adults.
then I get a Checkers soda once, and on it is printed stupid "#YOLO #attemptatcatchphrase" shit on a picture that's supposed to be two people texting about fucking checkers

>>8770519
oh and I used to like their color scheme more. fuck red. taco bell had brown too, that was awesome

>>8770414
can you really blame them? ads gotta appeal to real common types.

Whatever it takes to keep the darkies from moving in nearby and lowering the property values of the areas surrounding McDonald's locations i guess.

>>8771823
I sometimes see 20 piece nugs for $5 now, didn't think I'd see them more expensive here

>>8772948
It's because of current farming practices mostly.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA6Zsxicrc8

>>8772800
McDonald's explicitly wants people in low socio-economic brackets to be around their locations, poor people eat up fast food way more than rich people.

There were a shitload of wordfilters on /b/ for a while, but the only two I remember off the top of my head are that 7 became "over 9000" and nigger became "peanut butter". Later the word filters were updated to filter into nicer sounding words just in time for the good morning america expose.

McDonalds from this era (around the 1990s) was best.

I don't know what the fuck happened in the 2000s.

>>8773685
In the 90s, no one really worried too much about how unhealthy fast food was, nor did many outside of wealthy yuppie towns really give a shit about various food memes like Organic and shit like that. Of course once documentaries got popular outside of school, there were a ton of "Dangers of Fastfood" documentaries, and suddenly the perception of McDonalds dropped. Also dropped was McDonald's experimentation as it seemed like there was less experimentation when it came to food, drinks and sauces, no more shamrock shakes (They eventually did bring it back though) or anything.

Still, for all we know, it was never good and we became more aware of that in the 2000s

>>8773775
Nah, I share the same opinion.

I always remember mcdonalds holding together better and feeling more substantial in the hand (less fat and smaller sizes maybe?).

Now you can't get half way through a quarter pounder or a big mac and the whole thing is dry and dropping apart.

Also can't get the same 'nostalgic smell' from before. Petrol smell stays the same, school smell stays the same, fresh rain smell is the same... mcdonalds has changed.

>>8773818
It changed because they stopped making burgers in advance and holding them.

Like, the change is fundamentally down to their food prep being less awful.

>>8773824
actually I worked there in 2005 and they were all 'fresh' cooked.

Recently they've gone to holding burgers in heat drawers as I have a friend working there.

Only within the last year or so.

I'm a Britbong though.

>>8774151
That ad was great

>>8765550
I never saw the kind of food that requires advertising to sell as comfy. Comfy to me is homemade pot roast made using my grandma's recipe. Or my mother's Christmas butter cookies. I never saw anything comfy about McD's. Actually, the experience of eating there is pretty much the opposite of comfy.

>>8774717
well, yeah, because you're close minded and cliche. there's more than one type of family, and more than one type of comfortable.

>>8774725
You used a lot of words to tell us that you're a child of divorce, loser. Maybe if you were a better kid your parents wouldn't have split up.

>The White House stated that the Harrier Jet would not be sold to civilians without "demilitarization," which, in the case of the Harrier, would have included stripping it of its ability to land and take off vertically.
What was even the point of this? Just to make a shit ton of money off of idiots who think that MAYBE they will win? What's even the point of the jet if it can't fly? You might as well just gave them the money it was worth or something. This promo was a mistake from the get go.

Back when the videos only showed the food and had not voice overs, Chefsteps was some reasonably comfy food porn.

>>8777869
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO ONION NUGGETS?!?! I've always asked why only Burger king does onion paste based sides.

>>8779877
Even before Supersize Me they'd lost a lot of the middle class. The place had a reputation of being a kid centered place, and their attempts to attract adults (McLean, Arch Deluxe) were failures. And middle class parents were starting to be a bit more concerned about what their kids ate - they were increasingly uncomfortable with the idea of letting their kids have too much in the way of soda and fried food. Then the Dollar Menu come out, flooding the place with poor people. Middle class people aren't all that comfortable around poor people, and this was 2 years before Supersize Me.

It's like saying Pepsi could arrange for me to fuck Britney Spears in her prime if I collected enough points. It's Pepsi. Appealing to a younger demographic has been a pillar of their advertising for decades. The ad tried to appeal to teenage boys who think big shit-wrecking machines are awesome in order to get them to use the program.

>>8778443

I've worked at a burger king and you are full of bull, they have an auto-cooker that grills the beef, char and all.

>>8776835
>we wuz burgah kangs

>>8766208
>cheese not only on the cold side, but separated from the beef by the tomato - both in the photo and the box illustration
Honestly WTF were they thinking with this item

>>8779877
>>8780034
Seems logical, McDs looked more like a kids and obese poor people center by then, and even now their attempts at getting adults are pretty meh.

>Let's attempt turning McDonald's into a coffee shop, even though there are tons of other places to get your coffee
>Let's get rid of Ronald McDonald for some reason
>Let's try to get the audience that doesn't want to go to McDonalds, ever, by trying to add a bunch of new things that they can get better some where else, and not improve our current state.

Then again, I haven't really stepped into an actual McDonalds in a decade

>>8781420
Some of those things worked

Coffee at McDonald's is normal now, hip even, they even have K Cups and the best insulated coffee cups
All Day Breakfast was 10 years late, hash brown all day everyday
They revamped their healthy choices, my dad likes their chicken salad and wraps
They've been pushing for fresher ingredients and now they're going to have fresh beef for the quarter pounder

They're still #1 for a reason, they're adapting
Idk wtf Burger King is doing

>>8781420
>Let's try to get the audience that doesn't want to go to McDonalds, ever
They've been trying to get adults to take them seriously since the 80's. I gave up on them in the 90's once I became an adult. Just got tired of feeling thirsty and sluggish after eating there so I decided I was done. Haven't been back since.
>>8781454
>They're still #1 for a reason
Same reason Walmart is #1 retailer: they're cheap. But the middle class distinguishes themselves by not choosing the cheapest option. They like the second or third cheapest so they don't feel poor. Which is why McD's is playing catch up to fast casual places right now.
>Idk wtf Burger King is doing
Chasing novelty, it seems.

I remember that like it was yesterday. I also remember the Taco Bell brown like it was yesterday. Thanks anon.

True story, my autistic ass has ONLY had Dr Pepper at taco bell my whole life, all because of that brown stripe on the cups. It was like I had no choice. Now it doesn't taste right without that combonation.

I had forgotten why I did this completely until I saw an old cup in footage from a Michael Moore movie.
