Yeah, it's definitely brain chemistry. I just found myself tearing up a little bit at the fact Wendy's no longer has a Superbar buffet. It's also got a whole "lost childhood" component that I'm skimming over, probably more about mourning that specific time and place, but... yeah.

I could still murder some lukewarm rotini with canned food-service Alfredo sauce right now, though.

@001zlnv Behold the majesty. Behold the glory. Behold the utter nightmare to clean and keep stocked when you could just grill some damn burgers and be done with it.

Huh... I have never even heard of this. And from the looks of it this was during my life time.

I mostly think of being able to pile unreasonable veggies on a burger at a rest stop roy rogers when I hear fast food something "bar"

@001zlnv I have no idea if it was ever mandatory, and as you can see in the article (or just guess), there were a LOT of very valid reasons for a franchiser to say fuck no to the Superbar.

@zebratron2084

Totally. Seems like the kind of thing where you really need to commit to having it be your whole thing if you do it at all.

@001zlnv @zebratron2084

It was amazing... taco meat and sauce on demand... rotini as far as a plate could hold... sour cream on EVERYTHING...
