When Burger King gave the customer an option (1974)

 Growing up back in the day, fast food usually meant McDonald's and Carroll's, the latter of which was a corporate sibling of Burger King. There were the other eateries like Ted's Fish Fry, which is closing its Lansingburgh location after what seems like forever, though their Watervliet & Brunswick eateries are still open, and Charlie's Hot Dogs.

Most of America was introduced, in a sense, to Burger King, which had been around for a bit, in this 1974 spot, in which the chain touted that you could "have it your way". Jim McKrell (Celebrity Sweepstakes) plays the dad.
