Nowadays, there are approximately 37,000 locations in over 100 countries. According to statistics, Mc Donald’s chains sell more than 75 hamburgers every second and 68 million people per day eat them which is — about 1% of the world’s population. According to numerous forums and online lists, Mc Donald’s French fries are the absolute winner when it comes to fast food consumption – approximately 7 percent of all potatoes grown in the United States end up as McDonald’s fries.
