We went for their hot apple and cherry pies with soft serve for as long as I could remember, I remember getting a hot cherry pie with soft serve after I got my tracheostomy tube removed a month before my third birthday in 1973. However as we had A&W, Arctic Circle, Humdinger, and Burgerville USA in the Portland area, I don't think I had a McD chesseburger and fries until I was 8 in 1978, we went to one after my grandfather's funeral in iowa, and I remember telling my Dad that Humdinger had tater tots and that the cheeseburgers tasted better, he almost snorted his vanilla shake through his nose, and my farmer uncle's wife just glared at me. When they visited us in Oregon during xmas 1979 we took them to our local Humdinger, and the wife said under her breath, "They are better than McDonald's." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Coralmist Except their baked now and don't taste the same, they cool down too fast :(

@NativePortlander1970 Were they baked before?
@Coralmist They were deep fried, and the cherry and apple fillings, their only ones offered until the 00's, were the temperature of the surface of the sun, so good too 😊😋🤤❤ I usually had cherry and put in a cup with vanilla soft serve put over it.
