      Honestly because of how soft everyone has become over the years, nobody can even handle working in fast paced fast-food restaurants anymore. People have been working the grind since we have existed, and 98 percent of all humans that have ever lived can handle so much more than the people of the last 80 years

      They still are unstoppable. Just because you personally don’t like it, they’re by far the most successful fast food corporation in existence. They’re the busiest, most expensive (to franchise), and are guaranteed cash cows for their franchisee’s.

    Having been an executive chef for 42 years I never knew where my favorite quote came from” if you have time to lean you have time to clean “ a quote my earliest chefs and instructors emblazoned into my brain. It’s great knowing who came up with it!thanks Ray you helped make me a better executive chef and helped my career in ways you will never know!
    Over the years I made certain that my baseboards in my kitchen were as clean as the table tops in my dining rooms and I spent many hours doing that work myself to prove to my staff that nobody’s too good to not get on their knees to scrub baseboards!

      Brian... you have a lost characteristic, synonymous with an excellent work ethic. Most people don't share your enthusiasm, as they don't get the same satisfaction from what they do. In this day and age, trying to get people to do the minimum of what they're being paid to do, is like pulling teeth. While there are plenty of folks who will go the extra mile, most just are not motivated. They don't correlate initiative with any sense of reward. Why? Because they have too much handed to them. Usually, there isn't much in the way of consequences for their actions.
      Today, our work force is flooded with mouth-breathers, who feel entitled to walk the path of least resistance. They don't do anything they consider to be beneath them.
      There's no way around it... a person must be raised with a good work ethic. Otherwise... no one will care about a restaurant's baseboards, no matter how important it is to a sanitary work place. There are a lot of us that WILL get on our knees. But, those people are usually too busy baby-sitting their help, making sure that everything else is getting done. I'm sure you know all about it.
      Best of luck to you!

      I approach my documentaries as just me talking to a friend about something that is backed up with 100% fact. So when you talk to a friend you’re not trying out for the English language mastery Olympics. Some people disregard everything I say in the video and nitpick something I say grammar wise here and there and that’s fine. But it’s like, just enjoy it. Glad a majority do.

    Very enjoyable video. Richard McDonald lived in Bedford NH. By the time I met him in the late 90’s he was very elderly, and I was a bag boy at Vista Foods. Richard McDonald LOVED telling everyone he founded McDonalds… often to the same Vista employees who had heard the story several times. What can I say, he was quite old then. I wish I still had his business card. It was imprinted in gold, with Golden Arches in the center, his name, and the word “Founder”.

    I began watching and was hooked. Thank you so much for doing all the work on this. I'm in my late '60s now and McDonald's was one of my first jobs as a kid. It was the first time I was introduced to a lie detector test they gave all employees and I'll never forget the Triple Ripple ice cream cone. Being immature kids at the time, we took great pleasure and putting packs of mayonnaise underneath car tires when we were doing lot checks and having a grand old time watching them splat all over everybody. As I said, I was an immature kid but I did learn a lot about work ethics. So again, thank you very much for making this documentary.

Sad to say I'm the age where I watched all this going on and remember many of the events mentioned. In 1976, I was in Chicago for a special trip and I met Ray and Joan Kroc. Very very nice people who actually made real and interesting conversations about finding out about you. I was very impressed; before the meeting, I didn't know who they were. Interestingly enough the same trip, at the same hotel, I met Harlan Sanders. I obviously knew who he was from his commercials and he was just like his commercials. I wish I would have known to have said something about noticing the gravy quality going down.

      @IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hey there Ruben! There’s definitely a lot to unpack from the history of McDonald’s so I don’t blame you watching it multiple times. Your story inspires me as well, there is a whole new meaning to work when you know it’s up to you if the business succeeds or not. Much more care is put into it than just working at a place someone else owns, put in 8 hours, leave and not worry about it until the next day. I trust that as long as you stick with it, things will only go up from there!
      I’d say from myself researching McDonald’s if I were to open a restaurant, I’d keep the menu simple and introduce items that compete with other items from similar businesses. Some would see it as being a copycat but hey, the filet o fish ripped off the big boy fish sandwich and where are big boy restaurants now? Hardly existent, if they even do anymore.
      Where are your taco shops located? I’d love to review your food for a video if I’m ever out that way! 😎
      Thank you for watching, the support and kind words. Have a great and blessed day.

    Kroc was a gifted visionary. My favorite McDonald's experience is eating a quarter pounder with cheese and an apple pie alternating one bite of each at a time.

Tons of great information the average person who has ever grown up over the decades with McDonalds (which feels like practically everyone on the planet) can relate to. You also didn’t go warp speed force feeding (no pun intended) an overload of information to the viewer.
    McDonalds is a key part of the Americana experience. You did the McDonalds experience justice, for I and so many people reading this, with a well paced presentation of information.
    McDonalds … a truly joyful American experience at home and that proudly has been shared with the rest of the world 🌎. It’s hard to even imagine a world without McDonalds. Truly an amazing statement and accomplishment, the global reach and globally shared cultural experience of McDonalds, when you think about it.

      McDonald’s is definitely a huge part of my childhood, teenage years and adulthood! Granted I cheated on them quite a lot with Taco Bell, but like a true love, I always come crawling back to them when Taco Bell keeps forgetting to include tomatoes and sour cream on my taco supremes!
      It’s amazing how many different menu items there are all around the world. I hope one day to track down every items and make a huge video on them all lol
      Until then, thank you so much for the great comment and just to let you know if you haven’t yet, I’ve made quite a few more side documentaries on other McDonald’s stuff if you haven’t seen them yet, check em out and let me know what you think!

Even thought he did not come up with the original idea, he saw the potential! Now this video made me realizes that Kroc was just someone who struggled to keep a business afloat!!!

I look back at those times with my parents and brothers as happy times when we ate hamburgers fries 🍟 and drank thick strawberry and chocolate milkshakes with a straw. We had contest for a $5 00 prize for the first one to finish their milkshake 🥛I never won 😢 we are just so busy now that we only see each other during holidays. Back then our parents allowed us to share a table and we talked to each other's company ate Big Macs , Quarter pounders, fish fillet sandwich 🥪 french fries we had what we wanted most if the time . Fish fillet for Lent and apple pies all the time for dessert I loved the fried apple pies. I can't remember when they changed it to baked apple pie. That was a sad day.

    I saw my first McDonald's in Ft. Meyers and Sarasota, Florida ca. 1958. I can remember watching the fries being made from scratch. Machine peeled potatoes, a big cast iron press to cut, soaking the raw fries to reduce starch. And, of course, they were fried in tallow as the gods intended.
    One day when I lived in Southern California, I stopped by McDonald's in Goleta, California. Santa Barbara's adjacent city to the west. And inside, there was a plaque commemorating the invention of the Egg McMuffin by the franchisee's wife. So, to pick a nit, it was invented in Goleta, not SB.

    My personal favorite thing from McDonalds is a sausage egg McMuffin with a hash brown inside the sandwich, which I get every Wednesday for breakfast. Since my boss goes to the auction on Wednesday mornings, I can order one and eat it at my desk while checking my email. I call it Hot Breakfast Wednesdays, cheers! Good job on the documentary

    Thank you. Really interesting documentary to watch. Also glad you picked up some things along the way from Sweden. By the way, I still remember the first time I tried a Quarter Pounder cheese in the desert of Nebraska near Las Vegas in 1989, and was blown away by how good it was. I also worked for a year at McDonald’s in Kungens Kurva outside Stockholm around 1992. 👍

    1:28:16 I was there! My grandma lived in Lincoln and we went there a few times. They had a huge playplace which I loved. They even served brussel sprouts which my grandma loved. I thought they looked and smelled terrible but it was a neat experience. I thought I dreamed the whole thing cause I asked about it when I was older and no one seemed to remember it. Thank you for confirming a memory I had from childhood!

    I grew up in a family business that distributed eggs. During the mid 1970's our company brought USDA inspected eggs to roughly 40 McDonald's north east of New York City. Many of the restaurants were owned by operators that had 1 to 6 locations. The Garzarelli brothers and Mike Damiano were standouts along with the Colley-McCoy group which is now is known as the Colley Group with many locations. I'm convinced that McDonald's serves the most legitimate consistent product of any food location.

      I would say so myself. There’s always people that will slam the worlds largest fast food restaurant as they’re the biggest target out there so negative things will be said naturally. All I can say is, I’ve eaten and taken my chances at smaller “hidden gem” restaurants and left feeling underwhelmed and potentially getting sick later. Many of those times I felt like if I just went to McDonald’s and got a couple Big Macs I would have loved it more so.

      I remember often stopping at a McDonalds somewhere just outside of Boston as a kid on the way to either visit relatives or on day trips to Nantasket Beach for 15¢ hamburgers, 10¢ fries, and 10¢ sodas, which we, of course, called "tonics". That must have been in the early-to-mid '60s. It was on a strip along with several other early fast food stands, drive-ins and diners. McDonalds was OK, but personally, I preferred the little Howard Johnsons stand that served clam rolls or another joint that just had roast beef sandwiches--like some "proto-Arbys" I suppose, but WAY tastier.

    Great documentary. Liked how you said at the end about the mcpizza, I guess there are tons of menu items varying from country to country, though am suprised you didn't mention the breakfast burrito.
    Also curious as to why you didn't include anything about the play places because that is a big part of McDonald's at least in Canada anyway. It changed which location i went to once I had my child. Also how different they were back when I was a kid, ours was an outdoor one with all of the characters that represented McDonald's.
    One question for anyone this McDonald's also had a caboose (back of a train) where you could book for kids birthday parties, wondering how many more were out there. This was the 80's I believe out door playground and caboose where gone sometime in the mid 90's.

    I never understood their decision to end "supersize".
    Dropping the supersize was a knee-jerk reaction, and will never stop anyone from buying more fries. "Uhhh... we can't put more fries in your container, so... how about you buy as many containers of fries as you'd like?" Duh! The guy who did this experiment, already knew what effect it would have. Why else would he do it? Despite the lack of warnings about excessive calorie intake.... if you're at the golden arches often, and you're gaining weight... sooner or later, you're gonna put 2 and 2 together. Are there such warnings in pastry shops, candy stores, or any other businesses that sell fatty, unhealthy foods? Nope. Why not? On the whole... are kids normally allowed to eat unhealthy, by their parents? Usually... Nope. Why not? Because they're too young to know better. Well... who IS supposed to know better? Adults & parents? The same adults and parents that are bitching about McD's? Hypocrisy, at it's finest.
    If you're inclined to eat at a McDonald's EVERY DAY FOR A MONTH, by choice, you already know what it will do to you. Some of McD's food is fatty. So what? Why do people's bad personal choices become a "thing" for someone else to have to endure? Why should they be held responsible for what irresponsible people decide to do? This is what is called, "buyer's remorse". Spend your money, use the product, and then complain to the seller, because that investment didn't pan out the way you thought it would.
    Water is the safest thing to put into your body. But, what happens if you consume too much, for an extended period of time? "Hyponatremia". Are there warning labels & signs on all water sources? Nope. Why not? McD's doesn't sell dangerous food. McD's has sold calorie-laden food to people who don't take responsibility for themselves.

      Yes, yes and yes!
      As I’ve got some comments in the past on how McDonalds is the reason for obesity and blah blah blah, I don’t even comment back anymore because it’s useless to have conversations with people who will believe that it’s a restaurant or companies fault for what individuals do to themselves.
      The super size me movie was such a sham. He knew it, we knew it, everyone knew it. Especially when he was on some vegetarian diet normally (I don’t know for sure, only watched it once years ago) McDonald’s would react to his body more dramatically.
      I can eat McDonald’s every other day and be completely fine. Still fit, thin, and healthy as an ox. Some people just can’t stop themselves from indulging. Their brains are hooked on non stop stimulation from all the sugars and so on from what they consume. It’s their fault. McDonald’s doesn’t force anyone to drive to their stores, order, pay and eat their food.

    This was really good and informative. Probably like most people The Founder was my introduction to the history of how McDonald's was created along with Ray Kroc. Even in the movie, I didn't see Ray as a thief or did the brothers totally dirty. I respected him for seeing something within McDonalds and went on to make it what it is today. Didn't know he had a daughter or married someone else before Joanie. The brothers not bitter about not getting their royalties, how the big mac got started and so on. Well done
