Tasty and cheap meals - a lot

McDonald's is an American fast food company. It has about 40 thousand shops around the world. Around 2 million people work for McDonald's. They serve around 70 million customers daily in more than 100 countries, in India, too. 

The shops are famous for their hamburgers, but they also serve breakfast and drinks.

Why the name? Because brothers, Maurice (Mac) and Richard McDonald started the company in 1940. First they had only one restaurant and their menu was long, with a lot of meals, as in other restaurants. After 3 months they decided to cut the number of meals and they left only hamburgers and potato chips on the menu. They added some drinks to the menu. They wanted to sell a lot of food at low prices. Why? Because they wanted more and more money.
