I vaguely recall Burger Chef as a kid. I remember stopping there along I-80 when travelling with my folks. Like 1975-ish. I recall it was good!
It was real good $0.12 a burger and the frys were good. McDonald’s fry were to the best until they changed the oil from Beef Talon to something else, destroyed their brand.
In the South, I recall Red Barn burgers weren’t bad. But that was 50-60 years ago. Who remembers the gas station fave, RC Cola and Moon Pies?
