    Maid-Rite is a franchised name. There were originally four franchises which opened several to many locations in the Midwest over the years. In the last 20 years or so there have been court battles. Everyone can search the history. The location I am most familiar with is Taylor’s Maid-Rite in Marshalltown Iowa which I have been eating at for almost sixty years. Their website says they have been in business for over 95 years. The reason other restaurants use the word loose sandwich for the same thing because the name Maid-Rite is copyrighted. Nu-Way burgers in Wichita Kansas copied them and opened in 1930. At one time they had four locations in Wichita but two have closed in recent years. The loose meat style sandwiches are often called Taverns. When I was growing up in Iowa churches ,other nonprofits and even schools would often say they were serving Maid-Rites at their functions. I never heard of any of them being sued.

      Taylor's Maid Rite is the bomb. But lately, they've allowed ketchup in the restaurant, which is a disappointment

    • @davewinter2688
      @davewinter2688 5 месяцев назад

      @@drewschumann1 I think it was mustard only on the counter If I remember correctly. All businesses have to give the customers what they want to stay in business. Just a fact of business life. I don’t know if the mustard or nothing was a company policy or just Taylor’s. I never really liked mustard until adulthood, so I think I ate them plain in those days. Do you remember Henry’s 15 cent hamburgers in Marshalltown? I think the old building was all boarded up the last time I was there a couple of years ago. How about Stones Restaurant? That’s at the other end of the dining spectrum. They’ve been closed now for several years. Sad.

    Those Maid Rite sandwiches remind me of ones we had at a place in western Iowa. They called them "loose meat" sandwiches, which was a really unfortunate name, but they were oh so good. And home made root beer? 'Nuff said! I'll go ahead and rank Midpoint Cafe right up there, because of their "Ugly Pies" and today is after all, National Pie Day. Safe travels, Sandy and Jed! -Burt in NJ
