Drive-in origin of the Big Mac in Waco
In Waco Texas the drive-in that first sold a Big Mac recalls its heyday then faded as suburban growth drew residents away. Aaron McDonald describes being first to name the sandwich and fought legal questions after a rival McDonald’s opened locally. He still opens daily at 5 AM to prepare produce for a few morning customers.
