Long lost fast food menu items

The Whataburger thread got me thinking. What are some of the long lost menu items that fast food restaurants need to bring back.

I'll start with two:

Taco Bell: The whole bacon menu. They had a bacon cheeseburger burrito and a chicken blt soft taco that were both unbelievable

Jack in the Box: Chicken teriaki bowl. Holy crap was that good, and actually pretty healthy. No reason to get rid of it. My brother recently found something in the frozen food aisle that was a decent replica.
 
Taco Bell needs to bring back the chili cheese burrito. My ordering process there has been thrown off now that it's gone.
 
Since it will probably be gone in a couple of weeks, I'm going to go ahead and pre-nominate the Whataburger HBBQCSS.
 
Mexi-Melt. I had it years ago. I am guessing it is not on the Taco Bell menu anymore but I haven't been in years.
 
Jack in the Box mini chimichangas. Best d@mn drunk food I had during my pre-21 drunk days. Would make my current drunk escapades much more doable.
 
When I was at UT, Jack in the Box had the "Real Meal Deal." For 99 cents, you got one burger, one taco, and one small fries. That was genius.
 
In the 70s and 80s, Jack in the Crack had a sandwich called the Chicken Supreme. I live in Atlanta, where there are no Jack in the Boxes, so I don't know if they still have Chicken Supremes. But those things were good, especially late at night. Back then I lived in the Lakewood area in Dallas, and the Jack in the Box on Gaston was the only place open after 11 PM.
 
Dairy Queen used to have a delicious chopped beef barbecue sandwich. Sometimes I dream about it.

Jack in the Box had a great deep-fried bean burrito. Even the salsa they gave you for it tasted allsome.

I second the Bell Burger from Taco Bell, and I also miss that green sauce they'd put on the spicy burritos.
 
The McRib?

I can't wait for MCD's farewell tour IV!

Burger King needs to bring back The Veal Parmesan Sandwich.

Well... on second thought....
 
taco bell: still has the mexi melt, but i agree on the chili cheese burrito - they threw off my (2x per year) ordering process when they got rid of that.

their old "59, 79, 99" menu. most of the same items, just cheap.

i remember kfc chicken littles from when i was a kid. those things were delicious.
 
"Mexi-Melt. I had it years ago. I am guessing it is not on the Taco Bell menu anymore but I haven't been in years."

Not on the menu, but the TB @ Brodie and Wm Cannon still serve them.

The Bell Burger came out when I was in high school. I couldn't get enough of them. I don't remember them being any better than a taco, just easier to eat and drive, and cheap.
 
Monterrey Ranch Chicken sandwich at Wendy's....i got hundreds of those from Junior at the Union

and the Chili Cheese Hunger Buster with Fritos from Dairy Queen. Like a Frito Pie on a bun!
 
It's debatable whether you consider this fast food, but the P'zone at Pizza Hut is one of my favorite things to eat in the entire world.
 
Jack in the Box used to have a turkey melt on sourdough bread. I can't remember their name for it, but I miss it terribly.
 
Frito burritos were awesome, but Taco Bell hasn't had them in several years.

I used to like the "All-american meals" at McDonalds; cheese burger, small fry, small drink for $1.89. It was a decent snack and not a full-blown heart attack, just mild chest pains.
 
i know when i was in school that 2 tacos for 2 bucks thing at jack in the box was awesome. i don't eat fast food so much. that still around?
