- Big Xtra - Introduced in 1999, the Big Xtra was a regular menu item until replaced by the smaller Big N' Tasty in 2001. It was composed of a three-eighths pound beef patty (170g), sesame seed bun, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickle, mayonnaise, ketchup, optional American cheese and a special grill seasoning only used on the Big Xtra. Due to its bigger patty, it was advertised as being larger than a Whopper. The name is still used in Canada, however the sandwich is the same as the current Big N' Tasty.
- McDLT - The McDLT (McDonald's Lettuce and Tomato) was sold in a novel form of packaging.[2] The meat and bottom half of the bun was prepared separately from the lettuce, tomato, American cheese, pickles, sauces, and top half of the bun. Both were then packaged into a specially designed two-sided container. The consumer was then expected to finalize preparation of the sandwich by combining the hot and cool sides just prior to eating. The company discontinued the sandwich in 1990 due to the move away from the environmentally unsound styrofoam packaging which was integral to the McDLT "experience". The McDLT is perhaps best remembered for its marketing, which focused on variations of the theme "Keep the hot side hot, and the cool side cool." A 1985 commercial released to market the new sandwich featured a young Jason Alexander.
