I hated the dish rag 2nd Aunt Viv. Was the original too uppity?

I worked at McDonald's during this time. We'd make these items and then toss the styrofoam coffin in a warming bin for 20 minutes, ensuring the lettuce and tomato were nice and warm.

I worked at McDonald’s in 97 and that’s the year they got rid of the holding bins. Before that , we would make like 20 cheeseburgers and put them in the “bin” until they were sold. If they stayed in there too long they were discarded as waste. McDonald’s didn’t cook everything to order like they do now. They only cooked special requests or items to order.

I never knew that the two compartments of the McDLT packaging were called the "McOven side" and the "McFridge" side.

“A lot” is two words. “McDLTs” doesn’t get an apostrophe because it’s plural, not possessive. “Sticker” should be “stickers”. You’re missing a space after the second sentence. “Hot” should be capitalized at the beginning of the next sentence. “Photosticker” is not a word, break it into two. No comma is required in your last sentence. Please consider carefully terminating your comment with a self-congratulatory LOL. Thank you for your consideration.

I used to love the McDLT, but didn't remember that the cheese was on the cool side. That seems kind of dumb.

Hi Aunt Viv!!

VIVIAN!

I’m surprised she wasn’t replaced a few seconds before the end of the commercial.

It boggles my mind that this was considered innovation. How about this... Big Mac 2.0, a dry Big Mac with the sauce on the side so when you get home you add it yourself 🤯

I just searched this because I saw a "BLT" on a menu and that reminded me of the McDLT. I think they separated the burger patty from the rest of the sandwich so that only the burger patty goes under the heat lamps while the rest of the stuff stays out of the heat and stays cold. I seem to remember a commercial where someone took the top off the box and folded the two halves to put the sandwich together easily.

There is one with Jason Alexander from Seinfeld.

I don't get why they can't just find an alternative to package the thing. Taking away a beloved burger all because of some container controversy? Outrageous.

I wish they would have had a big compartment for every ingredient.

Never knew that was Janet Hubert-Whitten from the Fresh Fresh prince of Bel Aire Aire aka Aunt Vivian Banks

Aunt Viv!!! 😆😆

This tutorial looks Nice, but Jason one is catchy

I wonder why they put the cheese on the cold side. You'd think people would want the cheese melted on the burger

There's absolutely no reason why outlawing styrofoam should have killed this product. They could have just handed you two separate cardboard containers. If I had to guess, I'd say McDonalds probably found that the large containers and fresh tomato slices weren't practical for their assembly-line approach.

They put the cheese on the cool side. Excuse me, but it should be melting on top of the burger. QED.

I also often think of biting into a McDLT through the many years but sadly they discontinued them. If they and some customers felt it was a bother to put the 2 halves together which I loved doing, or that the lettuce or tomato may fall out of place by doing so, then why THE DARN didn't they change the McDLT back to the same way they did in the beginning with the 2 halves already joined together? Burger King does it why not McD? There is nothing wrong to have the tomato and lettuce be warmed up in a burger by serving the 2 halves already joined. OR if they want the 2 halves separate again since they sold maybe billions or is it many many millions? Then you mean to tell me they still can't come up with new packaging that will hold and keep the 2 halves separate other than styrofoam that was banned?

All in a container that will be around long after man...lol

I wonder if she brings Franklin home some McDLT.

Bring back the McDLT

It was a great idea. I think they should bring it back. That plus their recent switch to fresh quarter pound patties would make for quite a respectable hamburger. Oh, but they shouldn't be keeping tomatoes in the fridge. Tomatoes lose their flavor after they've been cold for a few hours, so they should always be kept above 50° or so. Once they get cold you can't get the flavor back, and with the kind of tomatoes that use in chain restaurants you want to keep all of the flavor you possibly can.

I think when the environazis went after McDonalds in the 90s for their Styrofoam waste, they decided to stop using it and go to using paper or cardboard boxes to put all their sandwiches in, so that move killed off the McDLT. Which is too bad, because as gimmicky as it seems, it did work pretty well and those burgers tasted a lot fresher than their other lineup.

Why would you want the cheese to be cold?

Bring back Styrofoam!

Holy crap was that Aunt Viv

Bring it back EXCEPT Make it out of Cardboard or anything biodegradable

McDLT? Wahoo! Together? I like ketchup!

I remember the McDLT and those double styrofoam containers. I've never been a big fan of McDonald's food but I remember trying the McDLT and quickly remembered why I never liked their food products except for their fries. Their fries were the only thing that was ever worth a damn but I don't even eat that anymore.

@YTRulesFromNM

It keeps the tomatoes from soaking the lettuce. And for many people the burger tastes more fresh if the cheese on the burger is fresh instead of clotted into the meat. I really liked these sandwiches, but I like the Burger King Whopper better. The last version of this sandwich was the Big N' Tasty.
