McDonald's Big Mac Commercial 1978

[caitwon]

Mcdonald's is the only fast food chain in my town othe then Tim Horton's in a local town so if I want fast food I have to go to McDonald's. And last year my health teacher showed us the video "Super Size Me" so it kind of changed my view on fast fod. I enjoy it once and a while but not as often.

[TheDavo2010]

making me hungry lol.yea maccas is choice and ok in moderation.im into fitness but like some grease for energy sumtimes

[cowtippingrocks]

ironic how they are trying to promote health in this commercial :D

[2memekiki]

These days some spaz makes our big mcs lol

[ConfusedSponge]

ooooh the disco

[MoJoRod30]

@ConfusedSponge

an excellent option to burn these chemically induced calories..come on, shake your tail feather.

[ConfusedSponge]

@MoJoRod30 ;-)

[missjacko1]

I have to agree, its peoples choice to go there and eat. No one is forcing them to.

[zzzzxxxx341]

WOW!!! THIS MAKES ME SO HUNGRY!!!!! GOT TO GO THE NEAREST MCDONALDS... OH YEAH!!!!!

[mandybarr80]

the different breed cockroaches in each burger keeps me comin back lmfao

[mangosareforbangos]

Fuck micky d's

[mangosareforbangos]

Fuck mcdonalds and there chemical infested food.

[britishareawesome69]

LOL why is the quality so crappy?

[weaponexpert1]

what does the man say at 0:48 ?

[fivebearrugs]

@weaponexpert1 He says "It's nothing without the sesame seeds."

[MANDIMARIExX]

am I watching TV land again lol

[thiagocessna]

antigão mano

[mccarrpo]

0:39 That black man jogging is sort of creepy. I don't see how jogging and eating a Big Mac can be a good excercise routine.

[derpdederp101]

i'd hypothesis that it is definitely the lettuce lol

[MrHomestylePizza1]

This commercial must be illegal.

[Jasonxx420xx]

I am going to go get me a big mac right now

[rockyrmt]

"it was burgers ( Big Macs )and fries and cherry pies. it was simple and good back then."...I'd eat two- three in one sitting and still look and feel great . LOL. not anymore

[RideMyBMW]

min 0:17 WTF iz my man OJ doin in dis sh#$?

[GJrox88]

That jogger at the end isn't gonna lose any weight if he keeps comin back :P this bid is hilarious

[virnman]

@GJrox88 Reminds me of the old SNL skit when they had Bill Clinton jog to McDonald's and started eating food off of people's trays while he was out exercising

[fivebearrugs]

@virnman That was an AWESOME sketch! It was around 1993 when the Somalian warlords were intercepting food for the civilians in their country, and Clinton was using the McDonald's food as examples :) At the end, one of the Secret Service guys says "We've only gone an eighth of a mile" :)

[Shoes742]

OMG! WAS THAT A GUY ON A JET PACK!?!?! WHERE ARE OUR JET PACKS NOW!?

[floooky1]

@Shoes742 They're coming...they're coming.

[MisterXenomorph]

But this one is real.If you don't post this, a boy with no head or legs will show up in ur room at midnight kill you. Everyone will forget u. start posting. the timer will start as soon as you finish reading this. yes I do hate these coments

[benjafisha1]

There's somethin' about smokin' crack that keeps you comin' back..

[supabmg3]

Wow, I remember that one.

[MsL0vie]

the dude from archie bunker is in it. george jefferson's bro.

[fivebearrugs]

@MsL0vie Yes, he played Henry Jefferson on "All in the Family", but...strangely enough was not used on "The Jeffersons". I read that by that time "George and Henry were not speaking to each other" or something like that...

[buffaloborn71]

haha jetpack dude flying around the arches at the end lol

[Zetos]

Haha is this for real?

[mccarrpo]

What did that negro say?

[PinkFloydrulez]

@mccarrpo "I'd hypothesize that it is definitely the lettuce."

[caturn88]

@PinkFloydrulez Oh it was "Hypothesise", I could't figure that bit out. You know too that was going to bit people scrutinise the most, right?!

[caturn88]

@mccarrpo He didn't, he sort of went ooga booga

[Jasonxx420xx]

@mccarrpo he said that you are a raceist piece of shit!

[Ianseymour]

There's something wrong with this commercial, shouldn't those 3 niggers be in KFC?

[blktenor]

Man disco must've ruled everything back in the late 70's!

[GreatScott1011]

sadly these people died after coming back to mcdonalds

[dunnowy123]

Sesame seeds? What the fuck? That's what makes the Big Mac for you? Oh man...

[LootableCorpse]

Who gives a crap about the sesame seeds...

[jupiterscastle]

liquid cocaine is mixed into that secret sauce , atleast a drop

[bondiga10]

DISCO MAC

[jriley1992]

Wow, the Big Mac was so much bigger in 1978. Or at least it appeared that way, anyway.

[ronfast]

so love this commercial the exact year of my birth.

[doodydude234]

LOL! niggas and their ways are hilarious. That guy just loves his sesame seeds.

[SuperKriswithaK]

@velvetcup u always have the weirdest comments. LMAO. 

[waterbottleboy1]

@SuperKriswithaK COL COL COL COL COL COL THATS MY FRIEND VELVET CUP!!!!!! WTF

[waterbottleboy1]

The guy at the end who says "It's definatly the sesame seeds" He popped something into his mouth before he said anything, as if he didn't know the camera was on him and he at something that wasn't a big mac. Also, the black guy that says "I hypothesis it is definatly the lettuce" his friend next to him just like stares and him then looks ahead. MADE ME LAUGH. HAR HAR HAR HAR

[MissZillaable]

"That's two things Bob." WHAT A BITCH! SMACK HER BOB!

[nickp120]

everyone i wasnt born in the 70s so if any body knows is it better than the crap they serve now

[victor22]

I love those old Commercials!

[bjo6strings]

Dont come back too much, or you'll break your scale.

[Annaberry89]

do you really think such a big company would risk to put anything toxic to their food? the beef is actually made from the finest parts and the cows are controlled by proffessionals, and kept outside. same with chickens. Its the sugar thats added even to the buns that makes you "coming bck"So my dear aleterra i would suggest u to not put such a silly comments if you have no knowledge

[John27346]

@Annaberry89 I think he was joking. The "cloned beef" should have made this obvious. He's right about the MSG though.

[funkmike]

0:16 He's saying something like "I'd hypothesize that it is definitely the lettuce!" and his friend looks at him like "nigga, what?"

[gunnguy12]

Bigmac then compared to now........ What a joke its freacking tiny anymore :o(~

[ConfessionsPew]

Oh gaawd

[TheMWdude]

all of the people saying crap about McDonlads are fatasses

[wtf66611]

Back in the day when Big Macs tastes sooo much better.

[KripDrip]

the big mac today tastes the same

[dlmsuperdave]

@KripDrip Only smaller

[gennarousa]

never seen a good looking hamburger like in commercials or brochure. Why??

[dylanBBE]

something is keeping me away... -.-

[johnnytheC]

Such a catchy tune- so much better than modern jingles. Great memories!

[Magnanime30]

@johnnytheC I agree...

[deptofcorrections1]

Im so sick of hearing people bitch and complain that fast food restaurants are bad for you and this and that.This is america,people dont have to eat at these places if they dont want to.Theres other options like staying at home and making your own food or go to a restaurant that has a salad bar and eat.STFU blaming fast food restaurants for people being fat and blame yourself.

[jhillst]

@deptofcorrections1 We're not "complaining" about it, just making people aware.

[fayenshell]

@deptofcorrections1 Hallelujah brother... can I get an amen?? people need to chil the f@$% out, for real. you do your thang, and let others do theirs.

[deptofcorrections1]

@fayenshell :)

[dunnowy123]

@deptofcorrections1

Totally agree. Oh! They advertise to children! Oh they make food that tastes good so people buy and eat it! Oh no!

Fuck all these people. If you wanna go buy it, you go buy it. McDonalds doesn't force you. And this is a commercial meant to sell a product, what are you so stupid that you can't resist a commercial.

Again, shifting personal problems onto someone else.

[deptofcorrections1]

@dunnowy123 Well put my friend:)

[rofflemows]

@deptofcorrections1 i've been friends with someone for nearly 20 years...who's been overweight for nearly 20 years...and i've never seen this person touch one food item from a fast food place, EVER o.0  weight gains can't be blamed on mcdonald's alone but it sure doesn't help, lol

[CAESARbonds]

@deptofcorrections1

I sometimes devour a fat but tasty big mac...

On the other hand I do a lot of sports and eat other stuff too.

I don't see a problem here.

Also Germans are getting fatter and fatter.

Driving their fat cars only, and eating to much.

I don't blame mac donalds ;) I blame the ppl

[Steve1460]

@deptofcorrections1 at mcdonalds.....we screw it up for you........i just came from a mcdonalds in stamford where they're run by illegal aliens who like to mess orders up. i asked for a big mac i got that but than i asked for sauce for my mcnuggets they're like sure sure enough i get my food no sauce no ketchup. bunch of morons now the slogan should be you wont go back cuz they screw it up for you!!!!

[SantaBadd]

@Steve1460 LOL Their like that at all McDonalds.

[YoMama844]

@deptofcorrections1 Yes people don't have to eat at McDonalds but still WHY DO THEY KEEP COMING BACK? THEY'RE ADDICTED to the trans fat patties. They can't get enough. Just like this commercial lol.

[bellier20]

@deptofcorrections1 Yeah, nobody HAS to eat at McDonald's, but people DO. What's in that crap all the cutesy commercials don't tell you? Well, the people who know DON'T eat there, and the people who don't know have health for shit, which ultimately drives up the price of MY healthcare. It's like people who drive motorcycles without helmets ... you want to kill yourself, be my guest. Just don't put me on your goddam bill in any way, shape or form.

[YosevS]

guys, this is the 70s im pretty sure these were actually fresh back then not like now where the ingredients are from this same time period(70s)

[Cresitan258]

0:41 OMG THE NIGGA THAT STOLE MA BIKE!!

[Droosmom1970]

what the hell is the guy saying at 18-20 I've listened like ten times and all I hear is "lettuce"

[olflatop]

@Droosmom1970 "I hypothesize that it's definitely the lettuce"

[deptofcorrections1]

@Droosmom1970 lol

[JBofBrisbane]

Fat, salt and sugar in excess are bad enough for you without the alleged addition of MSG or cloning.

[MARTS54]

Seeing this commercial makes me want to go to McDonalds tomorrow to order a Big Mac... although I aleady had one a few days ago. They sure look good here.... too bad they've shrunk so much thru the years.

[qbc176]

Pretty sad how Henry Jefferson was reduced to McDonald's commercials while the Jeffersons were a hit show by this time.

I'm happy to say that I haven't stepped foot in a Mickey D's since employees wore blue uniforms and paper hats...Disgusting food.

[zachmasterzach]

I love how they show the disco scene just to emphasize, "keeps you coming back...like cocaine!"

[superrockperson]

mc donalds made a mistake by the "makes me come back" part

it clearly means they use additives

[barackscat]

they used to sell so many that the overworked guy on the grill would sweat profusely. it would rool down his face onto the burgers as they left the grill

[stupidiculous]

McDonald's should seriously consider re-using some of these old jingles. There's still plenty of money to be made from them, especially this one.

[zitalee2]

my mom's big mac's lately have been coming out looking like the ones in the ads

[buzzclick500]

"Yeah, somethin' keeps me comin' back, my homes' all say it's 'cause I'm black!" ;]

[akclan33]

yeah i keep going back to the toiliet after eating there

[longhornfan103]

My dad won a Big Mac by saying the ingriedients really fast in the seventies.

[longhornfan103]

@longhornfan103 And it was free. But he had to pay for the Coke

[blade004]

@longhornfan103 Wow how generous of them.

[EspioArtwork]

[pme96]

What keeps you coming back!? Its the advertising! Crap though it is

[sandhgreen]

Love the old mustang at 0:41. I can remember this commercial, it was ANNOYING even back then.

[mrtulala1]

mcdonalds and exercise go hand in hand; work off those calories and put on double what you lost.

[akshay240594]

stupid big mac

[EspioArtwork]

Featured in Cinemas Before Film Previews and a Showtime for Roadshow Outrole

[MattTheSaiyan]

A classic example of the 1970s approach of showing people of many different demographics enjoying the product. Pepsi-Cola and many others used the same idea, and it's worth reviving.

[fivebearrugs]

@MattTheSaiyan It's also when they cared about their products AND their customers :)

[buzzclick500]

@fivebearrugs : In-N-Out Burger is still strong in those areas, it's actually hard to believe, but they're doing it.

[quietriotfan1976]

wow, is there anything worse then disco music

[hannahsmom35]

@quietriotfan1976 yep....rap

[quietriotfan1976]

@hannahsmom35

lol, I don't remember anyone ever staging a Rap demolition night.

[70sman4ever]

@hannahsmom35 RAP SUCKS!!! Rap demolition night sounds far out man!!!! Let's DO IT!

[70sman4ever]

@quietriotfan1976 Gotta clean out your ears and reshape your thinking, do you really think today's music is good? Then you got awful taste man! DISCO RULES and I wear bellbottoms and platform shoes every day of my life! I party like its 1975! You dig?!

[quietriotfan1976]

@70sman4ever

Hey, today's music is terrible because nothing is original. Let's make a deal, you sit there, and listen to your disco 8 track, and I'll sit here and listen to my Styx LP, deal?

btw, for the record, I listen to alot of 70's tunes, just not disco.

[70sman4ever]

@quietriotfan1976 I dig man! I love 70s rock and funk, and being of Hispanic origin, I have salsa LPs from the 70s fania era. It's not all disco for me, catch ya on the flipside...

[B4IRUTUARU16]

I GOT A BONER

[umahuma4]

All of you are just fatasses, Big Macs are awsome

[B4IRUTUARU16]

@umahuma4 well said

[vanparty]

after one of those comes the McDump.....every time....lol

[greenhorns99]

big macs have never been that big. come on, that's a load of crap. Fast food places have always mis-represented their food into looking different then described and shown. They need to advertise what it really looks like to a customer who buys it and eats it.

[reallink2000]

the thing is the thing is flavor less but it also has alotta addictives

[umahuma4]

@reallink2000 You mean additives. And yes it is flavourless, only without the sauce.

[2010Hershey]

The special sauce is thousand island dressing.

[Droosmom1970]

@2010Hershey actually no it's not thousand island I thought it was too. it's miracle whip, mayo, pickle relish and French dressing.

[supremes1964]

@Droosmom1970 it's tartar sauce and ketchup :)

[MrClassicAds]

Yeah, Something keeps me coming back.....to the bathroom.

[narutorasengantube]

Lol that last guy that says " it's nothing without the sesame seeds sounds creepy"

[crb4059]

theres an auto shop selling tires in san antonio that continue to air the SAME ads from the 1980's

[zetina2010]

All i can say is.......WOW lol

[cannoir]

alll that disco thing was a hot mess back then

[alwrig]

Dead giveaway this was late 70s. If not the music, then the disco dancing scene...

[britainmal]

Wow! Mcdonald's spend money on advertising back then!

[revolversmoke]

yes they did XD

[Stereolabdream]

That big mac is about a foot tall...ah....innocent days when we still (kinda) believed a big mac would look like the one's in the adverts...

[gorrockman]

its all disco style lol

[funkmike]

Disco and McDonald's...a partnership that was always meant to be.

[MagnusRush]

OMG! The best burger EVER

[lilm2k8]

What Keeps Us Coming Back Is The Niccotine Or W.E Drug they put in it :P

[aleterra]

Yeah, something keeps me coming back. I wonder what it is, maybe the toxic MSG or the cloned beef?

[ArizonaDelRio]

@aleterra No, no, no! It's the Mexicans who work there and spit on your food.

[xsonz2]

@aleterra Silly, it wasint cloned back then! But I dont know about the msg...

[dubmaster96]

@aleterra

Or maybe the 80's

[falzar123456789]

@aleterra definetely the seseme seeds. you heard them. nothing without the seseme seeds. they are toxic msg cloned monstrosity death kill stuff.

[stupidiculous]

I usually don't dance to McDonald's jingles, but this song kicks ass.

[951morelia]

chinga tu madre zetiina eres un indio k tte crees americano

[zetina2010]

Wow commercials back then were awesome XD and i was born in the 90s lol

[WAIATA4U]

@ JDC11tendo...If this commercial was remade; you wouldn't see "average" (meaning in weight) looking people...They'd all be tall, skinny actors looking like Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner pretending to bite a Big Mac.

In a lighter note: The Micky D's in my area does a .99 cent Big Macs every Wednesday.

[70sman4ever]

@WAIATA4U Far out man! Where are you from? I am from New York and you can't even get coupons for a 99 cent Big mac anymore. Stingy bastards! Let me know where your McDonald's is...

[WAIATA4U]

70sman4ever:

I just sent ya' a reply.

[quirpco]

That guy will have to jog TWICE as much now to burn off all those Big Macs.

[JDC11tendo]

LOL, they should remake this commercial just for kicks! XD

[fivebearrugs]

I would actually like if all the major food chains (McD's, BK, Pizza Hut, KFC, etc) would re-air their commercials from the 70s and 80s, just for fun :) Maybe around April Fools' Day?

[JDC11tendo]

Yeah... tha'd be cool! XD

[acholl980]

McDonalds has done that in some areas.

[stallout78]

@fivebearrugs

Oh YEAH!! And Wendy's "Where's the BEEF?"!! Those were great!!

[rebelliousgamer]

@fivebearrugs they probably would but than the whole world would see how much bigger there burgers used to be

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

Omg.... Theres no black employies at MCDONALDS RACISTS!

[supremes1964]

@ThaMasterOfDisaster2  LOL

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

I cant find my comment :( What did i say? Lol

[Tigerboy83]

Actually what made a Big Mac so successful, is that trademark middle bun. It's what kept the sandwich together instead of the stuff between the buns sliding into your lap (glop!) on first bite.

Notice they talk about all the OTHER things in a Big Mac in this commercial!

[tindermo]

they have crack on big mac lol just kidding around

[seahorseruler]

ooh... catchy tune

[razzigirl]

How much did a bigmac cost in 1978?

[WAIATA4U]

Razzigirl:

Believe it or not...In 1978 & 79', Big Macs WERE only $.79 cents!

That's something compared to it being $3.25 buck for a mere Big Mac, these days.

[lllarnie]

hahahaha

[daffy72]

it sure doesnt feel like 31 years since ive seen this commerical god :P

[lv4vintage]

all the big mac is, is empty carbs from the worst breads of all, WHITE bread is horrible for you.

[Silvertrine]

You can still get good big macs overseas. I think a lot of countries have higher standards for meat, bread, etc.

 In the US they can sell shit and call it food.

[BitterrootJournal]

Big Mac doesn't taste the same anymore. Now it tastes like a chemical and the special sauce sucks.

[davidwmb]

@BitterrootJournal thats because the onions they put on it are fake (dehydrated) and the lettuce and tomatoes come pre cut and packaged.... which if im not mistaken mcdonalds is one of the few fast food chains that does that.

[fivebearrugs]

I've seen bags of precut lettuce at Burger King before...
