Salute

One of our culture icons had a birthday this past weekend. They turned 40. See if you can guess what it is:

  • The original cost was 45 cents
  • there is an Index that for it that checks prices of it around the world
  • It is sold in more than 130 countries
  • It first appeared in Uniontown, Pa in 1967. It went national the next year
  • First names considered were- aristocrat or Blue Ribbon
  • More than 500 million are sold each year in America alone
  • It has an average of 178 sesame seeds
  • It has 540 calories
  • It has Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun



    And who could forget this one?

    Do you remember trying to say it backwards?

    I haven't had one for years, and looking at that calorie count, I don't think I will be having one anytime soon.

    Happy birthday Big Mac.
