North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania: Big Mac Museum

Mmmmmm.

I'm sure I don't have to tell you folks that the Big Mac was invented in Uniontown, Pennsylvania in 1967. Such an event deserves to be remembered, and this one is ... but not in Uniontown, but in North Huntington. (McDonald's decided to put the museum in a larger restaurant that was more accessible to the public.)

The Big Mac Museum is part of a McDonald's on U.S. 30 just west (about 30 minutes) of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. There are a variety of kiosks and exhibits dedicated to the Big Mac, including packaging and pictures. The big thrill, though, comes when entering the kids' area. The Big Mac pictured above is waiting for you.

While you can order a Big Mac there, no one seems to have a problem about someone stopping by to look around. It's not as if you have to pay to see it, although you might be hungry after looking at the exhibits. 

Yup, there's a video:
