McDonald's milkshake, anyone?

I've asked some friends (of my age: 20-25) if they have any childhood memories of McDonald's Milkshake. Surprisingly, none of them remembers that McDonald's Philippines, for some period in the 80's, offered really yummy milkshakes. Some even laughed at me thinking that I was just hallucinating. But the memories of McDonald's Milkshake is very vivid to me.

I've two vivid memories of my McDonald's Milkshake Experience. One would be during our fieldtrip when I was in prep. Yep, in prep. After going to Manila Zoo, we had our party-lunch (as there were mascots) at Mc Donald's Harrison. The second would be with my family. I guess that was a year after that fieldtrip. I ordered Strawberry Milkshake at Mc Donald's SM North before we went home.

With these very very clear memories of McDo's Milkshake, I am quite anxious why friends of my age couldn't remember (or really don't have any idea at all) that the shake once existed (magkaiba ba tayo ng timezones o mali ang year of birth ko?). Only those who are 3+ years older than me would share with me the memories of the Milkshake. Maybe, I was just so captivated then. Masyado lang siguro akong matakaw.

Luckily, McDonald's brings back its Milkshake. For those who haven't tried it yet as well as for those who are missing McDo's milkshake, we can simply visit McDo El Pueblo or Bluewave to get that yummy milkshake.

Strawberry Milkshake ... YUMYUMYUM! :-)

Hala! Talaga? Bakit kaya parang hindi ko naexperience ang milkshake then? Tsaka, bakit din di maalala nung ibang kaibigan ko, malamang late 90's lang iyan....

Salamat sa pag-tama :-)

Mid 90's actually. Mga 96-97 siguro. Sigurado ako sa Greenhills meron.
