- McDonald's was founded by Richard and Maurice McDonald in San Bernardino, California, in 1940, and in 1955, Ray Kroc introduced the franchise model, transforming it into a global fast-food chain. McDonald's entered the Philippine market in 1981, where it competes in popularity with the local rival, Jollibee. The spaghetti offered at McDonald's in the Philippines is characterized by a sweet sauce to suit local tastes; however, Jollibee's sweet spaghetti is more nationally popular. The blog author's conclusion of "McDojollibee being unbeatable" should be understood as a concept that takes the best of both. This author, who knows no compromise in food, seems to be consulting about life over a hamburger, as if the true purpose of their trip to the Philippines inadvertently turned into a burger critique, which is indeed charming.
