Nowadays, fast food has become a part of life. According to statistics, men prefer burgers from McDonald's instead of homemade food made by the hands of their mother or wife. But why are the sandwiches from this restaurant considered the best? Let's figure it out!
The Story of McDonald's
The history of the famous restaurant chain began in the forties of the twentieth century. The founders of the burger company are Mac and Dick McDonald. It was in honor of themselves that they named their first restaurant.
At the beginning of her career, burger brought a lot of income, but due to the development of fast food chains, competition with other restaurants arose. But everything changed the revolutionary approach! The brothers developed their own concept: instead of waiters, customers serve themselves. In addition, you can eat outside the restaurant, taking a burger with you in a paper bag. The menu of dishes was reduced, and the staff was increased. This reduced the price of burgers at McDonald's from 30 cents to 15.
Initially, the McDonald brothers did not want to create a chain of restaurants, but Raymond Crock helped them decide the opposite. He popularized the McDonald's in all states of America. Towards the end of the twentieth century, McDonald's burgers appeared on the tables of all continents.
Modern McDonald's
McDonald’s appeared in Russia on January 31, 1990. Since then, a lot of things have changed, but the taste of burgers has remained the same.
Any McDonald’s has a wifi that allows users to check mail and communicate on social networks when they are waiting for an order. In addition, access to the network is open, you do not need to order food to see the wifi password in the check.
In order not to stand in line, McDonald’s uses special terminals that make it possible to place an order quickly and easily. Simply select a meal and drink and pay with your bank card.
Each restaurant has its own unique atmosphere. The room has comfortable chairs, soft chairs and large tables. Dine with this restaurant would be a good decision. In addition, if you want to enjoy a burger in the car, then the MakAvto service is built for you. Thanks to him, you can order dishes without leaving your car.
McDonald's takes care of visitors, so they use only natural products. All used oil from deep fryers goes to the production of biofuels for cars. Cardboard and paper are necessarily recycled and subsequently used several times.
Also, the restaurant helps people to realize themselves by launching various contests. For example, recently in Ukraine there was an action called “My McDonald's Burger,” where everyone could demonstrate their culinary skills.
Why is McDonald's popular?
As noted at the beginning of the article, most people prefer McDonald's over other fast-food restaurants. But why is he so loved?
Firstly, the restaurant has become a classic of fast food. It's no secret that there are a huge number of fast food cafes, but it is McDonald's that is one of the first. They trust the classics, that's why they love her so much.
A variety of burgers allows visitors to find a dish to their liking. Also, every year the number of variations increases. This is a real McDonalds burger mania!
Competitors
It is no secret that McDonald's is the most significant company in the fast food market. Its main competitor is Burgen King, which also specializes in the production of burgers. But who is cooler: McDonald's or Burger King?
To argue about taste sensations is useless! Most burgers consist of the same ingredients, so the taste is similar!
But, unfortunately, the prices vary ... An analogue of the well-known Big Mac - the Wopper burger costs 15 rubles more. A small portion of french fries will also be expensive - 70 rubles! There are also advantages of the Burger King restaurant - each visitor has the right to pour himself an unlimited amount of drinks. That is, buying a glass of Coca-Cola, you get more than half a liter of drink. Profitable proposition!
Burgers from McDonald's are cheaper than from CFS. Restaurant "KFS" prepares dishes only from chicken, no beef and pork! Which of them is tastier is difficult to find out, therefore, "the taste and color are felt-tip pens are all different." Someone prefers deep-fried chicken, while the other - grilled beef.
Come up with your burger!
In 2017, the action "My McDonald's Burger" was held in Ukraine. 150 thousand people participated in the competition, but only two were revealed. They became Nadezhda Linkevich and Alexandra Vazhova. Starting in May, new burgers from McDonald's will appear on the Ukrainian menu. This is Ariburger and Fresh Chicken Cheese.
It turns out that creating your own McDonald's burger is easy! The composition of the "Ariburger" includes a roll of white flour, tomato, lettuce, pickled cucumbers and beef cutlet. The Fresh Chicken Cheese sandwich is more refined, because its ingredients are: sesame bun, yogurt sauce, cucumbers, Emmental cheese and chicken cutlet. Sounds appetizing, right?
The contest "My Burger" allowed the company to know the tastes of their customers. We are sure that they will be taken into account when developing a new sandwich.
How to create your own McDonald's burger at home?
