Question I was born in 1980 and my Brother used to watch a ton of old 80's comedy movies. The first one I remember though he has no clue what it is. The only thing I can remember is that there was some sort of secret sauce and another company was trying to steal the recipe. I believe it was about pizza but it definitely was not Mystic Pizza. In one seen a girl from the rival company comes over to try and get the recipe and starts hitting on the guy and He hides her in the trashcan so he doesnt get in trouble and then she tries to steal the recipe. Any ideas on what the hell this movie is??
Answer Hi Tim, I'm really not sure about this, but try "Good Burger". It doesn't fit the timeline but somewhat fits your description.
"Dexter Reed, a high-schooler is force to get a summer job at a fast food restaurant called Good Burger after causing a car wreck by his school teacher Mr. Wheat. So Dexter must pay off his teacher's car by working very hard at Good Burger. Meanwhile things turned worse when Mondo Burger, a mammoth fast-food chain opens across the street, it looks like Good Burger is soon going to be history for good! Now it is up to Dexter and his new friend Ed the not-so bright cashier to save the day, as they develop a delicious special secret sauce that Ed created brings hundreds of new customers to their door and makes their new competition desperate to steal the recipe and all of their customers."
