McDonald's (McDonald's) is a large multinational restaurant chain in the world, founded in 1955 in Chicago, the United States, with about 30,000 branches in the world. It mainly sells hamburgers, fries, fried chicken, soft drinks, ice products, salads, fruits and other fast food.

With about 32,000 restaurants in 119 countries on six continents, McDonald's represents an American way of life in many countries. As the first and largest multinational fast food chain, McDonald's has become the focus of public discussion about food causing obesity, corporate ethics and consumer responsibility, representing a fast food culture that has been accused of affecting public health, such as high calories causing obesity, and lack of adequate balanced nutrition. Many people denounce it as junk food. France is proud of its food culture, and many are hostile to McDonald's, which they see as an invasion of the American way of life. In the United States, there is a McDonald's near every highway exit. Wireless Internet access is also available.
