McDonald's is, without question, the most successful, popular, and influential fast-food restaurant chain in recorded history. McDonald's now has 35,000 different locations spanning the globe. The name most commonly associated with McDonald's is Ray Kroc. Kroc was the Chicago entrepreneur who founded the McDonald's corporation, but to suggest Kroc created McDonald's is, well, a crock.
As is sometimes the case with successful businesses, the early part of the McDonald's story includes the people who came up with the idea and the person who figured out how to sell the idea to the rest of the world. Ray Kroc was most certainly the latter.
