You went in, got your order, and ate in your car. Every few month dad would sell a hog or a cow, have a little money left over and take us to McDonalds where the only things on the menu were hamburgers (the kind that come in the Happy Meals now), fries, coke, orange drink, and coffee. All 8 of us had room to eat in the car without making a mess. It was such a treat!
You forgot the rootbeer! We used to go the the first McD's in Chicago when I was a kid. M & D only took us there about 4 times a year, so it was really a treat.
