Can you do Carl’s Jr.?
I can, yes.
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio thank you 🙏 ☺️
Were you trying not to laugh everytime you said dick McDonald? 🤭
@@ariksoong200 that’s not funny 🥱
If McDonald's would go back to the 80s quality and everything they would be unstoppable. Today is so hit or miss i no longer bother with it.
Me either 💯
🤮🤮🤮
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.
Ditto
Going to McDonald’s on weekends with my dad was such a highlight during the 80’s.
I think it was every other Saturday, my friends’, who were brother and sister, dad took them to McDonald’s after church.
Me too. My dad would have a “Big Mac attack!” That would be cool. Off to McDonald’s!
I have to give you big credit for presenting this in a factual way without the annoying stock footage and vid tricks used in 80% YT history vids. Also your plain and correct pronunciation of the narration is a pleasure. Nicely done!
Thanks so much for all the info, I enjoyed a lot.
Lies again? Grab Food USD SGD
Can u give me examples of “stock footage” and “video tricks”? I watch a lot of history videos and have not a clue of what you’re talking about . Please help me understand ❤
1976, the year of the Olympic Games in Montreal,
I worked on the opening of the 4,000th McDonald's, thank you very much.♥♥
13 mins so far, and I gotta say, great video already! It deserves a lot more views.
Thank you! 😊
Who are you to say what someone deserves? If people aren’t interested in viewing it why does that concern you. They made a whole movie based off of what he is talking about 13 minutes into the video. That is much more interesting than watching this bulljive.
It's a great video about a business that's seen better days! I love McDonalds but after bad experiences in the last 5 years, there are only TWO I trust and that never used to happen!

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!
Beautifully written by a beautiful mind ☺️👏 wish you best of luck , always peaceful and safe work 🫂💗🧑🍳
Yep another is leaning time means cleaning time. 😂
i fucking hate it, go fucking clean it yourself.
And, until the mid-late 60’s, only makes worked there
This was absolutely fascinating, I was one of those late-night insomniacs looking for something to watch and ended up being hooked, ended up watching the whole thing. You did such a good job with your research and very calm manner in presenting the facts.
I'm from South Africa, McDonald's opened its first restaurant in South Africa on the 12th of November 1995, at the time, my buddy and I looked into getting a franchise, was very exciting to be talking to the head office in America and learning about what it was all about, but in the end, we didn't go through with it.
However, the chain is very popular nowadays, although it does get a lot of competition from a homegrown competitor, Steers.
Fred Turner is an example of “ask not what you are getting … but what you are becoming” He stood out from the very beginning and proved his competence… he actually cared and because of that was hand picked by Ray himself. Such a beautiful thing
This was an extremely well made and well written documentary. They did their due diligence and really got the history of McDonald's. THIS IS a GREAT VIDEO! Again when time and quality effort goes into a video it shows, and this one definitely has it and then some! Excellent job sir! 👏 Thank you for your dedication, time, and effort in bringing this history to us. The historical significance of McDonald's is obviously one if the biggest stories of our generation, and you did a phenomenal job putting it all together. You got a subscriber! Thanks again!
Hey there! Sorry been busy and I’m catching up to replying back to comments with some kind of thought! Haha
I made and put this all together myself and it was quite the task! Was fun to make and even better given the fact I could eat the food after filming it! I’ve made plenty more videos on McDonald’s stuff you may like as well! Thanks for such kind words. I appreciate all the love this video has been given when originally I just posted it thinking it may get a thousand views. Haha
Take care and have a good one!
Well said!
Chemical shit causing obesity and stupidity
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio I appreciate it too. All the hard work you’ve put in shows. Godbless and keep it up. And your right was sleeping and needed to watch something interesting and this hit the nail on the head.
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio You certainly have created a product with your documentary production methods and should now start marketing your product there is definitely an established market for low cost doco's and probably loads of new markets waiting to be tapped into, good luck, btw I would present yourself a bit more professionally, not much more though.
Impeccable research and historically accurate. Thanks for all your work!
Thank you so much! 😁
👏👏👏👏👏💯🇨🇱🇺🇲👍
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.
Thank you Bob! Ahhhh, Im in my mid 30's but i can already look back at my late teens and basically all of my 20's and think of a library of immature things i did with my buddies. It all about that experience! All the best people got into some kind of real fun. I would have loved to try the triple ripple ice cream cone! I see it in old photos of the menus, teasing me hahaha
Thanks for watching and have a great one!
Stupid kid. Never understood the behavior.. but,as a kid alot we’re hungry…
I listened to this whole entire thing that was an incredibly well thought out and put together documentary fantastic job man!
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”.
That’s awesome! Oh man, I would have loved to interview him back then. That would be cool if you had his card. Great story, thanks for sharing! And thanks for the kind words
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio do you have an email address? I don’t use Facebook and would like to send you a lead privately.
@@BangerFleet yes I do! Industrialindustriesworldradio@gmail.com
I still remember so well eating my first ever Big Mac in 1987 in a newly opened MacDonalds in Belgrade, Serbia, then capital of Yugoslavia, it felt immediatelly so tasty and the process of getting the food seemed immediatelly so natural.
It feels like the food has always been there all along hasn’t it? Thanks for sharing your story, Big Macs are amazing.
Dobra dan, I used to work at the U.S. embassy in Belgrade from 2002-2005. I used to go to the McDonalds there and this is probably the same one.
@@johnmiller5679 Dobar dan to you sir, it is an honor to meet you, the mac I am refering to is the first that opened in Yugoslavia and in entire southeastern Europe and it was the one in Slavia square. I only missed the year, it was in 1988, not 1987.
I also remember mine, the year was circa 1996 and was in London 😅
Great video man! I'm happy and thrilled to have watch this.
Thank you for all the hardships you put into this project it was very informative and I appreciate the effort you put into providing all the information, thanks
I love the fact that he didn't use computerized voices to narrate this. His voice was clear and comfortable to listen to and he didn't stretch it out with useless verbal diarrhea.
Thank you! I would never use such atrocities as a computer voice so rest assured in the future that will never happen. Unless for a comedic effect haha.
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. Thanks for the kind words! 😁
That was one hell of a job my friend, I usually can't sit and watch something for more than 20 minutes, I couldn't walk away from this one.
Watched it on my TV but had to jump on the phone real quick to leave a like and a comment for all of your hard work. Absolutely fantastic..
Haha! Well thank you! I appreciate it! I’m glad it kept your attention! And if you want to watch more documentaries I made, I did continue on to this “history of McDonald’s” series! Just look in the playlist section of this channel and find the “documentaries” playlist. There’s plenty more stuff to discover! Take care and thanks again!
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadioOh, believe me I did..
Watched multiple videos already, mostly the documentaries. I always find it fascinating how even the little things we take for granted in everyday life have an interesting history and story behind them.

Cinema worthy documentary great work
Thanks so much! 😎
Great documentary! Thanks for all the effort and time you put in to producing this. It’s put together so well the time passes there’s never a dull moment.
I lived very close to the Des Plaines, Illinois store and frequented quite a bit back into 60s.
Again, thanks so much for doing this documentary about McDonald’s!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’m a fellow Illinoisan on the southern side though, I’d love to visit Des Plaines at some point strictly for the McDonald’s history.
Have a great day and thanks for the kind words!
Much respect to you sir as your efforts into making this grand documentary was extra special and deserves the attention and praise it gets from here on out. Thank you
Thanks man! I really appreciate it and happy you enjoyed it!
Wow, this was insanely well produced. Dude should have way more subscribers.
Thanks man, it’s slowly coming along. Since 2019 lol. If you liked this, stay tuned, I’m working on the history of the McDLT now. I have other documentaries as well, it’s in a playlist on the channel. They’re fun to do when I have the time.
Well done..
Thanks Larry!
He doesn't because he's boring and telling us what we already knew
@@chrisoconnor8392 your a 🐎 ass
Great story and history. Nicely done and never missed a single minute to watch nor not even watching it but listening to you intently
I actually teared up a few times because I went there as a child and now I'm taking my grandchildren there. I hope it lives on.
1949 Takes 1 minute to get a burger, fries and drink
2022 Takes 20 minutes for the same thing
Ye if they operated from the outset how they operate now they would behave been out of business in 18 months. Terrible customer experience and too much emphasis on delivery and no focus on customer experience
Last time I ordered 2 Filets of fish and fries it was about 30 seconds wait from the time I ordered.
Nicely done! I worked for McDonald's for 23 years, and loved every minute of it right up until the very end! It was and has been a huge part of my life and I still use many of the things I learned in the management program to this day to run my own business(s).
I worked there in 1999. Hated it.
@@Tornado1994 Well, minimum wage jobs suck!
Id still be at McDonalds working if it wasn't for shit management
Amazingly well-done documentary. I hope you make money doing these. As good as all the best documentaries I've seen, and with your own unique perspective/voice.
You killed this documentary man 💯 great work 🙏🏻
“Late at night and trying to fall asleep” that’s literally what’s happening right now for me as I’m finishing this hour and 36 minute documentary
Extremely well-done. Shows how things come into being, and what it takes to bring things into being. We tend to take McDonald's for granted. But it took a herculean effort to bring it into reality. Thank you for the documentary.
You’re welcome and thank you for the kind words 😁
No it didn't. It took a milkshake vendor to realise what it was. No herculean effort at all.
wow ! i watched from start to finish, what a fantastic documentary. loved and subbed. Looking forward to watching more of your content
Thank you! Happy to have you along for the journey!
Thank you so much for this documentary. I sat religiously and watched every bit of this video. At a point I left it playing while I was taking a shower so I follow up and do not miss out on any detail. Working on building my own multimillionaire food company. This docu clears up the path for me! I can do this! I will do this ! Thanks ! and see ya in a bit when I’ve reached the top. (12:35am) (11/03/23)
Thank you so much for this. I have heard so much about Ray Kroc (he played piano like me)! I admire his meticulous actions even scrapping gum off the sidewalk of his first McDonald's franchise. The McDonald Brothers and Ray Kroc are a NATIONAL TREASURE
Brilliant video! Loved the in depth history of both the McDonald’s Brothers and Ray Kroc. A true, complete documentary. I will share this video everyone on social media.
I tried to do my best besides some other movies on McDonald’s that leaves out reasons of why “this” or “that” happened. Very much appreciate you sharing as it helps and motivates me to bring more stuff like this to the channel. Thank you! 😊
Great video! I hope to see more documentaries on other restaurant chains/ home name brands/companies in the future🎉
I was cleaning out of hospital listening to your documentary very interesting made the time go by enjoy the whole documentary and listen to the rest of it on the car ride home
I have to admit, I thought I would only watch a few minutes of this, but ended up watching it all!! Very well done.. a big part of my interest came from working at a brand new store built in 1982 in my hometown outside KCMO. My first real job!! I got to see the introduction of McNuggets AND McRib AND McDLT !! I also worked at a corporate McDonald's while in college.. the difference between the 2 was surprising!!
I always ask anyone who has worked at McDonald's what they add to their food at work.. Most popular-- Mac sauce on frys, or tartar sauce on frys!! They have AWESOME sauce!!
Right on man! I’m happy you enjoyed it! It’s such a great story, I had to tell it right after the movie “The Founder” left me asking so many questions and no answers.
My dad worked around the same time you did when he was a teenager. He claims to have invented the double McRib 😂😂😂
I worked at Mcdonalds
Same here. I was going to skip it but I legit watched the entire thing.
Mac sauce on my fries here!!!
Well done; excellent presentation, interest holding format, accuracy with lots of interesting facts. Very well done. 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.
Great video man. I clicked on it by accident, but I am very happy I did. Keep up the great work!
Thanks dude! That’s how I come across some of my favorite channels, by randomly clicking lol
I have plenty of other documentaries on McDonalds stuff in the “documentaries” playlist on the channel. Regardless if you subscribed or not, enjoy and have a good one!
Great video and thanks for your time making it. I am 65 and it was like a trip down memory lane.
No problem! Im glad you enjoyed it! Its always good to look back at videos like these. Closest we can get to a time machine at the moment!
Best documentary on ray kroch and McDonald’s I’ve ever seen. Couldn’t put it down. Congratulations and thank you.
Thanks for the high praise! Much appreciate it, planning on more in the future! You’re welcome and glad you enjoyed it!
They left money to Salvation Army..Ray Kroc.
But brothers were the Founders, But K. Did lot changes which were 👍
This really brings me back to yesteryear when I didn't know there was a relationship between diet and health.
I stopped going to McD's years ago when I noticed after eating there I would get McGas, and the following day, would take a McSchitt. Great doc man!
😂
how unnot know
LMAO
Wow, very well done documentary. It was well paced and well illustrated, not one dry segment. Looking forward to your other videos.
Thank you so much! I’m happy you enjoyed it enough to give me such a great review. My videos range from a bunch of different things but just know, I’m always working on some big documentary that will always release every 4-6 months
This is amazing. Thank you so much
WOW ! This is one of the most thorough documentaries I have ever seen.
The research & photographic history is amazing.
This video is whimsical AND informative AND entertaining !
Thanks! That means a lot as I did as much as I could to make the story as laid out and easy to understand as possible. I plan on working on more in the future so stay tuned!
Of course much of the footage is taken from the great movie The Founder starring Michael Keaton.
@@scottlarson1548 ahhh yes! The Founder starring Michael Keaton. Released December 7, 2016 and directed by John Lee Hancock. Music by Carter Burwell. Great movie indeed.
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio Oh, you forget where you got all this footage from???
A really well put together documentary. Thanks a lot for this! I love the contrast between the company commercials shown and the self made "real life" examples of actual McDonald's products. I worked at McDonald's myself as a student in Germany and was always impressed by the completely organized production processes. By now I rarely go to McDonald's, but after watching this documentary I want to go again 😂
Thank you so much! I have to admit, every time when it called for me to buy something for this video I was happy as I got to eat it after filming hahaha. Didn’t eat as much McDonald’s as I did until researching and doing this, now I have a much greater respect eating there.
Halfway thru this, I just had to have two cheeseburger's 🍔🍔 while watching this McFlick 👍 I too many years ago, enjoyed the McDonald's in Germany....Where else can you get a Beer & Big Mac. Way before the quote: I Was lovin it.
Obviously you don't do your research they've already proven 85% of McDonald's processing plants have human meat most of it from pre pubes and children 7 is children 7 or under
A
Huge topic! I watched the entire documentary. Good job! Amazingly, there is still much to cover. Thank you for great insight into the founders and key personnel and long history.
Oh yeah, so much I had to cut from all the menu items and everything else. But this is the best I could do to keep the pacing going for a condensed history of it all. I have been adding chapters after this in the form of mini documentaries on this channel from the shamrock Shake to the McRib and even the McDLT. It’s an ongoing journey lol
I’m glad you enjoyed my video man! Take care 😎
Very nice! A lot of work went into this video. Thank you!
Nice video! So much nostalgia associated with McDonald’s! I always liked The Founder and immediately hoped they would do a sequel where they cover the latter part of McDonald’s history 😎
I am an entrepreneur myself; I own two taco shops and it really takes a lot of effort to stay afloat. I've watched this video at least three times and I find it really inspiring.. I've been working 16-18 hrs days for 6 years now but it doesn't matter, I'm confident that in the future I'll collect my rewards. Congrats for your video.. keep up that good job.
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.
Keep going I wish you great success 😊
You want rewards sell something besides tacos 🌮 few Hispanics eat tacos.

Thank you for a nice video. Much success.
Great job! Excellent voice, delivery, and narration timing throughout. Look forward to your next effort.
Thanks! I have plenty of other documentary style videos on the channel that are just as or even more thorough on the research! Just look in the documentaries playlist and enjoy! 😆
I love documentaries and this one is STELLAR! You should do more like this, you're really good.
Thanks! There’s other documentaries I’ve done on many other things as well! Just look on my channel under the documentary playlist and enjoy!
Exceptional documentary, by far the best record of the McDonnald's company I've ever seen, McDonald's themselves would approve of this I am certain. Respect to the amount of work you CLEALRY put in, and especially so bypassing the American tradition of putting correct-facts at the bottom of the list of importance.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well done ! My dude thank ypu for the effort and reaserch you put into this 🎉🎉🎉
This was extremely well made. Great job!
Thank you so much 😊
I've been working for McDonald's off and on for the last 10 years or so. I do have to admit, it's one of my favorite places that I've worked over the years.
I had a great time watching your documentary, awesome job mate, keep it up!
Thanks man! Appreciate the good words! Will do, have plenty more videos to come on McDonald’s and beyond. Take care!
I actually paused after the Filet-o-Fish to go get one. Finished the documentary with McDonalds. Interesting. Thank you for the value in the information you have provided.
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!
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. The ritual always takes place in silence with my eyes closed, the only noise being a busy McDonald's Restaurant in the background. I'm lovin it 😍😊
That ritual you just described sounds like absolute heaven, I may have to try that but only replacing the quarter pounder with a triple cheeseburger!
I saw you eating the triple cheeseburger at the end of your excellent documentary, looks delish, I must try one next time
That sounds disgusting.
This randomly came on when I was getting ready for work and now I'm goona finish it. Great video!
Hahaha glad you found it! It’s definitely an interesting story to say the least. Thanks for checking it out!
My big thank you... an extremely interesting video which includes an enormous amount of information. Thank you for adding your own voice - and yes a huge effort by yourself to research and then produce an excellent video. Again "thank you".
Thank you so much for the kind words and from the bottom of my heart I’m happy you enjoyed it! It definitely took a nice chunk of time out my life to make this so I’m glad it’s noticed! You’re welcome and thanks for watching! I have plenty more documentaries on my channel if you wanna go deeper into the history of McDonald’s 😉
Very informative ....thanks for your effort .
This is a MASTERPIECE! Unbelievable job!!!
Thank you sir! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed. This was better then The Founder
Great work! Thank you for doing this. So inspiring! Amazing effort…could not imagine how much time, energy and money spent on this.
Thank you! It was quite the challenge but while it was hard work it was fun working on. 🙂 I appreciate the kind words, means a lot.
Excellent documentary. So well made, you kept me enthralled for an hour and a half, and that is because of the quality of production . Thanks Subscribed. 👍
Awesome! Thanks for the sub Steve! Happy to have you aboard! Presently working on the 10th installment of the history of McDonald’s video series now. Voice work all day today. This video I catch myself watching and I get hooked even! Haha!
Have a good one!
@@IndustrialIndustriesWorldRadio Thanks for the reply! Looking forward to watching the rest of the series and catching up with your other videos. Thanks for the great content, must take a lot of time. Cheers and take care👍
Thank you for all the hard work you put into making this, I really enjoyed watching it and learned a lot.
You're welcome dude and its no problem! I loved making it. Its definitely a wild ride and as ive covered many other companies and their history, Mcdonalds has the juiciest story! Take care!
Fantastic work! Thank you for the video!
Thank you!! I plan on doing more videos like this in the future 😎
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
Hahaha I’ll have to try Breakfast Wednesdays soon! It’s been too long since I’ve had their hotcakes and hash browns. So good 🤤
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the documentary! 😎
Better hope your boss doesn't see this
😂😂😂
I don’t go there today for various reasons, but I will never forget the impact of the Happy Meal on my childhood. There were the equivalent of viral trend collectors items offered often through the 80’s that made SURE my sister & I pestered my mom into regular visits. She still has the Smurf glassware. The whole concept- GENIUS! I miss the tallow-fried 🍟😭
Thanks for such a an incredible deep dive into the history, amazing effort!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😎
This is very informative,thank you so much.👌
This documentary was sooo hands on. Great research!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for your experience and making this video ❤
No problem! I had fun making it! You are very welcome ☺️
You did a great job with this video!! Thank you.
Thank you! History is in details every inches!
What an informative documentary and its definitely a thumbs up for me!!!
Well this was frikin' awesome! Thanks dude!
Thanks man! Glad you liked it!
Thank you for a very well researched & documented history. As a writer I know the time it took to gather the business as well as personal history of each individual. Research is very time consuming but also rewarding & fun. Around every corner you learn tidbits that take you to new destinations with many gold nuggets along the way.
Thank you! And yes it was very time consuming but so fun at the same time. I can only wish to have more free time to make a hundred more of these on other subjects. I’ll try! Thank you for the kind words, have a great day 😊
Loved your documentary! So informative and brought back a lot of memories over the past 45 years of having McDonalds.
Man this was a Well put together documentary, Thank you for all the work you put into this. I was just watching a video on the MicRib and yours came on afterwards, I was going to exit out of it but glad I stayed and watched it. Again great work!!🍔🍟
Thanks dude! I also made a video on the McRib, very interesting how it’s made but it clears the confusion of what it’s made from. I’ll be making a lot more McDonald’s videos in documentary style form in the future so stay tuned! The story of how it all came about it pretty cool for sure 🍔😎
Thnx, I’m hungry for McDonald’s now. Even the things I usually never order just to try it 😂 McDonald’s is awesome ❤
What a great documentary bro!!! Loved it
Thanks brother! Happy you liked it!
An amazing story and an incredibly well done documentary.
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.
I remember going to the Sarasota McDonald's on Tamiami Trail as a young girl. When I visit, I go grab a burger & a memory...🌞
I too lived by in the Ft Myers area, in the late 1950’s I would use my allowance to purchase a hamburger and fries :). I live in a different part of the state .., I still love McDonald’s! ❤️🌷🍟💐🌺🌸
There are no other Gods besides Lord Jesus Christ as we all will find out on judgement day. He does punish idolaters later that keep doing it and don't stop. Unfortunately there is no rest for the unrepentant and the disbelievers in the lake of fire and brimstone. It is the second death.
@@thespaceram2879 shut your mouth priest.
@@thespaceram2879 "He does punish idolaters later that keep doing it" I am doing it now. It's great.
Very much enjoyed this documentary. Well Done!!
Thank you for the kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Fantastic job my friend as i truly enjoyed watching every minute of it.I think i was 7 or 8 in the late 70's when they came out with the glasses that had a picture of each of the bad guys printed on them so i kept nagging at my father every couple of days to keep going back to see if they had any of the different characters that i was missing until i had the complete collection.So silly when i think on it now but that was a great strategy to make you have to keep coming back instead of being able to by them all at the same location but yeah the steak,egg and cheese on a biscuit is my morning routine.
This was AWESOME!! Thank You for this
Thank you! I’m happy you enjoyed it!
This video is so informative! Thanks for creating it
Thank you! You’re very welcome anytime!
This video was beautiful. I watched it over the course of 3 days and it's sad that it finally came to an end. I'll miss my entertainment to watch at Lunch and Dinner time. Cheers to this amazing documentary. Ray Kroc and the McDonald's brothers would be proud.
Thank you! But don’t fear! There’s plenty more videos I’ve made in this style for you to keep your lunch and dinner entertainment to carry on for a while. Here’s a playlist of all the documentaries I’ve done. You can continue on the history of McDonald’s journey at chapter 5: the history of the McRib, then up to the recent one chapter 9

Good effort, thanks for making this.
Thank you! 😎
As a teen in 1986, i worked at McDonald's, i remembered switching from Lard to vegetable oil for French Fries, it wasn't the same taste, also loved the McDLT, Mac Tonight was in every commercial, I miss those days, hanging out with coworkers, staying out after hours. Those were some good fun days.
Why am I not surprised that Disney would pop up somewhere in this lol. Seriously though, this was a well put together documentary. As a budding business person, I must have seen The Founder a dozen times already and it still fascinates me. Great work!!
The tentacles of Disney are long! Lol
Thank you so much for the high praise, there’s definitely a lot to learn from hearing about how businesses in the past made it.
Wow Awesome video watched it from start to finish Gave me a better educational view in outlook on the history of McDonald's thank you for the time and effort you put into this video I'm loving it
Thank you for the great words. I’m glad it’s educating people even if it’s just on McDonald’s. Have a great day 😁
Thank you. This was a great documentary, and a perfect case study. A+
You’re welcome! Thanks for the kind words and I’m so glad you liked it! I have plenty more smaller documentaries on McDonald’s in a playlist on my channel here if you’re interested 🙂
Take care!
I wouldn't have guessed it but this is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Nicely done and bravo.
Awesome! Thank you so much for the high praise!
Thank you for the great intelligent way to document the history of McDonald's and the care shows...I am amazed at how accurate you called it at the end... trying to watch it at the end of your day trying to fall asleep but it was so interesting and you did a great of narrating.thanks and two thumbs up keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the amazing review! Applause to you for staying awake through the whole thing! 😂
Congratulations on a well made documentary. 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.
Hey Joe! I did what I could to make it concise and flow well. Obviously I left out a few things that people (too many actually) have pointed out that I didn’t include. I didn’t include some things on purpose as I plan to do more in depth videos on the subjects!
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!
Have a great one Joe!
Take care!
Thank you so much for the work you put into this. My first job was mcd. this was super interesting 🍟 🥤 🍔 🎉
