McDonald's introduced Happy Meals in 1979 and forever changed the face of fast food.
Sure, they gave out toys before that, but getting one WITH your meal? Game changer.
38 years later, McDonald's is still going strong with their brand and those glorious Happy Meals. If you're ever in the mood for a light lunch, order a cheeseburger Happy Meal and feel 10 years old all over again.
