Blog #3 Fast Food history

                                             Burger King's logo


                              Burger King is known internationally fast food restaurant chain. Burger king

was found in 1953 in jacksonville florida. This chain was inspired by Mcdonald brothers. Their

original store is located in San bernardino california. In 1958 Burger king had it's first Tv add.

                            
                            The insta-broiler oven proved so successful at cooking burgers. They required

all of their franchises to carry the device. After the original company was not doing so well in

business in 1959. It was purchased by James Mclamore & David R. Edgerton. Both of them

decided to restructure the chain. That's when Burger King got its first name called Burger king

from James and David. As you can see Burger king and Mcdonald has alot of similarties. But

Burger king became to known as of their special kind of burgers called "Whoppers".

                           
                            In my words i think Burger king and Mcdonald are top two best selling fast

food restaurants in 21 century.
