To me, that Happy Meal was not just about eating fast food, but having mother-daughter time. I liked the pickles and the reconstituted onions on the basic hamburger. For a long time, when I made burgers at home, I did not deviate from the ketchup, mustard, pickle system of the hamburger at Mickey D’s.  This is sort of the equivalent to Patrick’s Shakey’s from the pizza...
