Two companies that would never make it if they started TODAY instead of when they did: McDonald’s and Starbucks.
Both were basically first to their respective chains, and got huge because of it. Now that there is plenty of competition in their markets that are much better options.
Excellent point. Neither would survive today.
I don’t do fast food often, too old and don’t need the crap calories, but In-n-Out Burger here in CA is SO much better. Potatoes cut fresh on the spot. Good stuff.
