Here is several pieces from McDonald’s Shanghai McNuggets promotion from the late 80s. They had special Asian-themed dipping sauces that came with the nuggets, and also included chopsticks and a fortune cookie for good measure. Seen in the picture are the bag they came in, the chopsticks, the McNugget box, and a fortune from one of the fortune cookies. If you are curious the fortune, or “Shanghai Mcfortune” as they call it, says “You will meet a tall, handsome stranger”.

    How great you have the whole McNugget set. I remember thinking when McDonald’s did this that it was kind of blasphemous. I don’t need Asian dipping sauces with my cheeseburger. I also wish the fortunes had a little something to do with the product they were packaged with like ‚ÄúYou will meet a tall, handsome hamburger‚Äù.

    On a recent trip to London, the McDonalds near the Earl’s Court tube station was featuring McLamb sandwiches…I may have a photo someplace.

    This is great stuff. I remember that the McDonald’s in Oslo, Norway sold McSalmon Sandwiches.
