My mom knew Monkey Wards from when she was a girl/young woman back in the 1940s or 1950s.  I also knew 'Taco Hell' long before I heard Mickey D's.

In discussing jocular names for chain store giants, I am surprised no
one chimed in with Monkey Wards.  I first encountered the expression in
the early Eighties and it seemed well-known.
