McDonald's

Long before the world first heard “I’m Lovin’ It” and the Golden Arches became one of the best-known logos in the world, McDonald’s was just a humble restaurant trying out a new concept called “fast food.” When the McDonald brothers set up shop in 1947, they produced a simple menu with only nine items. This menu laid the foundation for the McDonald’s we know and love today.

Wow, i would have added my own cheese back then. Literally 1/3 of the price of the buger.

Dems must have been in charge 🙄

The oldest McDonald's restaurant is a drive-up hamburger stand at 10207 Lakewood Boulevard at Florence Avenue in Downey, California, United States. It was the third McDonald's restaurant and opened on August 18, 1953. It was also the second restaurant franchised by Richard and Maurice McDonald, before the involvement of Ray Kroc in the company. The restaurant is the oldest one in the chain still in existence and is one of Downey's main tourist attractions. Along with its sign, it was deemed eligible for addition to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, although it was not added at the time because the owner objected.[

I liked their slogan from the 60's. It still works on Hx today. LOL

I thought "The Founder" was an interesting movie about how Ray Kroc supersized the franchise and how badly he screwed the McDonald brothers.

How long will it be before, like Uber to add a Surge charge ? Since Wendy's is the first fast food to do that.

In & Out is probably kicking themselves. But wait, 2024 = 8 it's not over.

In & Out Has no regrets. Their business model is solid and their controlled growth has proven to be rewarding.

Stop with your FOX News fear spreading. 😆

They have happy hungry people in line that go around for almost 30-40 minutes at some in and outs, AFN.
Like homeless hobos that need you to take away the stress of their hopeless lifestyle with your soft mouth.

Wendy’s can’t make that claim.

The company's original founders, Richard and Maurice McDonald, opened a hot dog stand near the Santa Anita racetrack in Arcadia, California, in the late 1930s, the New York Times reports.

Back in the 60s as a young kid, I used to go to the McDonalds in SB.
My dad wanted to buy a franchise but my grandmother on my mother's
side didn't want to finance the deal because she didn't like my dad.
So my dad lost his dream.
