i miss mckenzies! i moved away from nola in 97, and i haven't had a donut as great as theirs ever since!
I remember alot of the McKenzie's commercials whoever has the commercials without the talkover I want to see them again it brings back memories. Especially the ones the late Dick Bruce did.
Great memories!
tastee on veterans has em' baby! man this commercial brings back memories. this is the new orleans i miss.
oh man...does this bring back some memories...mine and my (then 2 year old daughter's) favorite was the "Turtles" with the pecan on top! I know there is still one McKenzie's that is open in Gentilly, but they didn't have "Turtles" when I went in a few months back. Oh, I wish!!!!!!!!
ohhhhh buttermilk drops! best part of my childhood!
I'd kill for just one of their buttermilk drops. I loved those as a kid. And their petit-fours were to die for.
i remember eating mckenzie's every sat morning when my mama made groceries at schweggmans i'm glad i was born in 85' and didn't miss out...
Wow thats retro i forgot all about this..i used to go to the one on st charles ave..great king cakes
I really appreciate these old commercials...it helps me remember my younger days.
SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! MMMM MMMMM
My dad used to o and get doughnts and buttermilk drops for us, and coffee cake for my mom every now and then on saturdays, and sometimes sundays too. However, we lived close to the one on iberville street, and my sister used to work at one too. Too bad that it not there where it used to be.
I remember going to McKenzies’ with my mom. I was about 3 years old and yes they most tasteful donuts and king cakes. I miss this bakery ☹️☹️☹️
Jerra Maurice U Ain't Lying I Loved Those Glazed Donuts They Were The Best
I Forgot The Buttermilk Drops
Tastee's Donuts still makes them! Only the original ones tho. No filled ones. And they have their buttermilk drops! Simply THE BEST. :P
They do have a McKenzie's still open, off Gentilly & Elysian Fields.
@Nawlinsfanforlife Mr. Henry makes really good ones at St. Bernard and Dorgenois.....
i loved the turtles!!! is there anywhere i can find them now? i live in bay st louis, ms. now, but would drive 50 miles for one turtle! lol!
They got one on elysian fields and gentilly. Near the walgreens
Tastee at W. Metairie & Clearview sells them. I'm not kidding - I stopped in for doughnuts and they also have Buttermilk Drops, using the same recipe.
McKenzie's King Cake was umumumum!!
*cries* I miss McKenzie's. Never have had a glazed or chocolate doughnut quite like theirs. I totally remember the weekend commercials.
I'm from New Orleans I had always asked my Dad to go to Mckenzie's but he always refused.
The store on Clearview said someone has to go in and fill out the forms to ship the cake...I would try calling them. Currently they also have the brownies and the jelly roll as well as the above mentioned.
I remember a McKenzie's in the Schweggmann's Plaza in Harvey when I was living there in 1979 and 80. I also remember the Tastee Donuts ads. Wow!
@chalupa2004 They do have a McKenzie's still open, off Gentilly & Elysian Fields. Right by Rite Aid.
Tastee still sells Mckenzie's products in Metairie...king cakes, buttermilk drops, cinnamon rolls, jelly rolls, pound cake, banana coffee cake and brownies. mmmmm... and boy are they good.
I use to love the Mckenzie butter milk drops they were absolutely 💯delicious 😋😍
I miss McKenzie's. Best donuts ever.
Anyone remember the old Wild Bill Watson Ford commercial from New Orleans? Maybe 1973 or around? " I'm Wild Bill and I save you money!" Then he gets a pie in the face? I've been looking for that one n can't find it anywhere
Wow, what a piece of New Orleans history...Who has the recipes for all their baking goods?? Someone has to bring them back in one form or another!!
You also can gets buttermilk drops at the Tastee's on Loyola Drive in Kenner. I believe it's a 24-hour store.
i got chills when i heard the theme song! ohhh McKenzie's!!
McKenzie's should've opened at least a couple of stores in Gulfport and Biloxi, Miss., as almost all the New Orleans stations have been on cable now since the 1960's.
A long time ago, in 1992-1995 when I was 4 to 7, 2:34 I use to say "McKenzie's you taste the toothbrush."
I've found a couple of places selling "McKenzie's style" king cakes online, but they want $36 to $60 for them! I'll try calling Tastee next week and let you know how it goes.
They made the BEST King Cakes in the city!!!! Apple and Cheese filled...oh man, if I could just have one right now!!!
Oh I loved me some Coconut Cream pie from there
My mom loved those buttermilk drops!
i loved those turtles
Simpler times... Ah
You can still get McKenzie's buttermilk drops, and king cakes at Tastee Donuts in Metairie....mmmmm
Man, I used to love getting those day old Buttermilk Drops at St. Bernard and Galavez St.
LOL I know what you mean! I'd kill for a McKenzie's king cake, too!
And you talking about you miss McKenzie's. I miss Pizza Hut.
THANK GOD Tastee's still keep their recipes and continues to make their stuff. Otherwise, i'd be depressed, lol. Gonna get one of their king cakes soon! :D
OMG 2.29 its almost 8 dollars for a box of doughnuts now. god i miss the old days.lol
Best donuts ever. Me and my sister still agree that they had the definitive King Cake. (Gambinos is good, but its just not the same.)
New Orleans is not the same without McKenzies
It would be nice if you would give credit to this show with your uploads "NEW ORLEANS TV THE GOLDEN AGE." Produced by WYES TV. This show was produced by a friend of mine and sold for profit for our station.
I saw ronnie virgets and his Family on FAMILY FEUD recently.
they were cuttin up...and I believe they won too!!
A New Orleans that is gone forever and will NEVER come back. God bless corporate America!
Do you think they'd ship them out? They carry "king cakes" at grocery stores in Dallas, but they taste more like bear claws. Nothing beats the original, no frills McKenzie's king cake.
McKemzies Had The Best Glaze Donuts
I smile when i get a mouth full of pie too what a coincidence?
I really miss McKenzie's!! Wish they were still open, I loved everything from McKenzies. Wine cakes were my favorite besides the doughnuts and king cakes
They had better donuts than Krispy Kreme imo.
What about them buttermilk drops.
In 1980, my folks and I moved to Buffalo... we would hear of a pastry shop named Brzeczynski's(sic?), but it didn't have the same feel or gusto as McKenzie's or any of the other stuff down in NOLA.
egad....$60. Yes, let me know. I know they were about $12 here last year.
Oh man. *drool* I WANT SOME BUTTERMILK DROPS!!!!!!!!!! That crap they sell at Tastee's is NOT the same. They don't even look the same!
I wish I could find a donut shop selling a dozen donuts for 0.16 cents a dozen
The real comercial starts at 2:12
Closed down becuz da zink was all mildew? Does anyone know what the background music was called? (fast tempo 50s style). You can kinda hear it here.
BTW,
who do i have to kill to get the recipe for mckenzie's buttermulk drops?
Man, I miss Mckenzies' donuts. Love theis plain glaze and chocolate, cream, and their turtles. Maybe it's good they don't have them now :)
