I do. I also remember that the french fries were cut on the premises
from real potatoes by a special slicer. Today, the fries are a "factory"
product that do not taste nearly as good. And back in the day, the meat
was meat, without ammonia.

In the northeast at around the same time there was an up and coming
small chain called Carrol's. A friend's dad was a distributor for them.
He started out because he was a potato broker and supplied them with
potatoes for fries. Every once in awhile he'd let us go for the day
delivering to the places, and we most of the managers would give us what
we wanted. Two 12 year old kids who had tons of energy could sure pack
away a lot of food!
