1. Mac N’ Cheetos from Burger King

There were many contenders for the title of “Worst Fast Food Menu Item Ever,” including the preceding 24 items on this list. Only one, however, could truly take the Gold home, and it was a tough choice to make.

The Gold went to the Mac N’ Cheetos.

Good Lord, wasn’t this a monstrosity? I am a lover of Cheetos and Macaroni N’ Cheese, so I can be the first one to tell you that these two food staples don’t go together, at all. Apparently, the folks at Burger King thought differently and decided to put mac n’ cheese inside Cheetos to create Mac N’ Cheetos.

From the moment anyone laid eyes on them, one could easily tell that this would be a bad idea, and, taste-wise, it was a truly horrific idea. Burger King rolled with the punches, though, and proudly advertised this disgusting menu item to a shocked public. They even brought out a new flavor of it, the Flamin’ Hot Mac N’ Cheetos, because why not?

First introduced in 2016, the Mac N’ Cheetos were a limited-time product, and by the end of the year, they disappeared, for the betterment of human society. Then, the very next year, Burger King brought back the Mac N’ Cheetos, showing the fast food world that they didn’t learn from their ungodly mistake.

Now, they’re gone, hopefully for good; but, we must never forget the time when Burger King, a well-respected innovator of fast food, decided it was a good idea to put mac n’ cheese and Cheetos together.

This product is proof that even smart people are prone to bouts of insanity.
