McDonald’s is going way back when to detail thee elusive reasoning why an onion-themed menu item isn’t available!
Let’s transport back to 1970s, Mcd’s tried a side called ‘onion nuggets.’ They essentially were bite-sized chunks of onion crispy battered delightness!
Pitched as a vegetarian option. Which if you ask us. We ponder is pretty progressive and ahead of it’s time. Being the decade era and all.
It ultimately became a canceled choice inside the company. However as they murdered that idea. They in turn launched what would become their biggest hit yet to date.
A day-to-day convo circa 1979 evolved everything. Fred Turner who was EO at the time came up with the ides of abandoning the onion and substitute with chicken.
And just like that and little cluck cluck.
That creation of the Chicken McNugget was birthed!
