loved the fried pies back in the day, when a new store opened up late 90s early 2000s the new store had the fried pies at only 2 for a buck and man did we go and buy at least 10 to 20 of em daily to get that sweet special pie... only for a full year later for them to swap em out and go to those nasty baked pies that all the rest have, once they went to the new ones i tried one and said forget it they just dont taste good at all, glad hardees still has a similar pie that is fried and still tastes just wonderful
Back before anyone was concerned about Y2K, friend was complaining about a cherry pie that had only 1 (as in one) cherry. Thinking it was a mistake and wouldn't happen again he purchased another one. He was right, it was an error. The second one didn't have any cherries at all.
No one eats apple pies thinking they are healthy so why they changed to the baked version I still wonder. The fried version was so much better and they still fry them in other parts of the world. In Japan they even offer didn’t fillings.
Well this is not the case in most other countries, like most countries in Europe or Asia, we only know them (also always other varieties and specials) as deep fried pies
Strawberries and cream > apple pie! Does anyone remember a time limited pie that was I think birthday cake or funfetti, maybe back in the range of 2006-2009
Okay so... Please don't think I'm weird after reading this. The fried apple pie was discontinued in 1992... At that point I would have been 3 years old. However... For some strange reason I have this foggy memory of trying the fried apple pie with my former stepmother. Which is technically impossible... Because my stepmom didn't come into my life until the later part of 1999. Has this ever happened to anyone before? Like where you think you've tried something and later you realize oh wait that's impossible... I wasn't born yet or something like that? ( With any food item.) Or am I just a weirdo? Feel free to be honest I genuinely want to know that I am not alone. 😂💯
Do you think McDonald's should bring back the old pie recipe?
Yes, I don’t go to McDonald’s looking for things that are healthy for me!
Yes. It would save their slumping business
McDonald's baked pies are trash. The dough tastes terrible, never buy them now. They need to bring back the fried pies.
One of the biggest mistakes McDonald's ever made was getting rid of the original pies. Honorable mentions:
McDLT & McRib
And switching from beef tallow on their fries! Only eat there a couple times a year, but man, it is good!
Now they just have to get the ice cream machine to work
They were better when they were deep fried, like the pies at Popeyes. 😢
lol in hawaii they serve fried apple pies. I tried the baked ones in cali, our fried apple pie in hawaii cant ever beat it
I loved it, when McDonald’s fried the apple pies!
It's been a few years since I was there but they still had the deep fried pies in Europe and Australia.

Hawaii McDonald's still deep fries the non-cream filled pies. My favorite is when they have blueberry!
Pop eyes Louisiana Kitchen has the best fried apple pies!
Glenn from twd favorite restaurant Popeyes 😂
i grew up with the baked pies. i like them better than fried.
Every now and then, the McDonald's in Hawaii serve taro pies. : - )
It is tough to know whether to eat the container or the contents to get the best flavor.

The lava filling.
I’m still gonna eat the apple pies 🥧, they are great with vanilla ice cream .
I always eat burgers when I have free time. It’s delicious
That lawsuit is the reason why restaurants put the seemingly stupid warnings on packages stating contents might be hot.
Popeyes has a similar apple pie and it's fried which is better.

Unbelievable
I love McDonald's apple pies. 🍏🥧
If McDonald's brings that baked pie over to Europe I'll never eat there again, the fried pies are the best item on the menu.
I miss the fried pies
The fried pie was better in in the 80s when I was little he used to have a glaze icing on it do anyone remember that
Taro pie actually sounds good.
Is that about the extra Mop flavoring in there Hehe !!!!!!!!!!!!!
You saw the lady drying mop head over fries
You can get fried pies in Hawaii still too
Well this is not the case in most other countries, like most countries in Europe or Asia, we only know them (also always other varieties and specials) as deep fried pies
Bring back the original.
I was going to say…I’ve NEVER HAD BAKED apple pie!, I want THAT! But I’m in hawaii so I guess that’s why..we only have fried! I’ll trade someone?
Strawberries and cream > apple pie!

Thats up to you to decide. Good luck!
Mc Bankruptcy?
It's not fair.
The original pies were crunchy and delicious. Very hot though.
They give me crude odoriferous zephyrs
For "health reasons" is a damn lie! It's because they can give you a crappy pie for a lot less money.
Best fast food apple pie is Popeyes by far
I miss the Cherry Pie the apples disgusting
Once again, F... the P......ant popularity of Mcyuckl's aka Mcdonald's
