What were to happen if you mixed in 80s commercials with a guy whose heyday was the 1950s? Better question — what would happen if you brought a failed Millennial from Brooklyn into the mix as a fast food mascot? You don’t have to imagine: it’s Mr. Delicious, the former mascot for Rax.

This screenshot up top is not just a low-key meme. It’s a screenshot from a real commercial that aired in the 1980s with one of the most notoriously misguided attempts at being edge the world has ever seen.

Who is Mr. Delicious?

Mr. Delicious was…well, he was a mascot who really had TMI when it came to his story. He mentions the following details through his tenure at Rax:

  • He has been divorced, and that his current marriage to Mrs. Delicious is his second one. Not much is known about the first Mrs. Delicious, but it seems like he is pretty contempted of his current marriage. He makes a point of avoiding her meals in favor of Rax.
