    And one dude saw this and decided "I'm gonna eat one of these everyday for the rest of my life!"

    This ad most likely aired in late 1968 or early 1969. Although the Big Mac was invented in '67 it did not roll out nationwide until the next year. The earliest national print ad I can find for it was from March 1969.

    I like the way he said "Another Hamburger" when the second patty was placed.I bet at that moment lots of jaws dropped 😮! Lol 😂 It's still delicious to this day!

    This burger actually looks pretty good. Wish I had been around in 1967 to try it!

    Notice the Big Mac was considered a big burger for the time in this commercial and in all McDonald's commercials in the 60s and 70s you see a 12 oz. drink along with a small bag of fries and small burger .Fast food restraunts started super sizing in the 80s

    In the late 60’s and early ‘70’s, there was a lot of perky flute and trumpet noises in the soundtracks of TV commercials and sitcoms. I noticed that 10+ years later, the style had disappeared.

    a Big Mac's a Big Mac. But a Quarter Pounder is a Royale with Cheese.

    How they have shrunk over the years!! They should be called now "The Tiny Mac" or "The Micro Mac"

    This technically is a 1968 spot for the then-new Big Mac sandwich at McDonald's. It was invented in 1967, but wasn't nationally sold yet.

    I was eating McDonald's since I was a kid, but I just had my first Big Mac in 2019 at the age of 46. I didn't think much of it, although I did think about the experience a lot and realized that I probably would have been more impressed if I ate it in the mid 1980s instead of long after all the gourmet burger chains exploded and my standards were already high by that time.
