What is a McFlurry?
The McFlurry is a signature frozen dessert from McDonald’s, made with soft-serve ice cream combined with various ingredients like candies, crushed cookies, or sweet sauces. This treat, which quickly became a customer favorite, was invented 30 years ago in Bathurst, a city in New Brunswick, and officially launched on June 7, 1995.
Its name, “McFlurry,” comes from the way it’s made—a fast blend of ice cream with mix-ins using a special spoon that also functions as a mixing tool, highlighting the unique method of incorporating each flavor.
How many McFlurry flavors are there?
Although McDonald’s occasionally introduces limited-edition flavors, only two flavors are regularly available in the United States:
-
Oreo
-
M&M’s
History of McDonald’s
In 1954, Ray Kroc had the opportunity to visit a small restaurant in San Bernardino, California, owned by brothers Dick and Mac McDonald. Although the place was simple, Kroc was amazed by the remarkable efficiency with which it operated. The McDonald brothers had designed a streamlined menu that only included burgers, fries, and drinks, which allowed them to maintain high standards of quality and offer fast service.
When Kroc learned that the brothers were looking for a new franchisee, he saw a great business opportunity. In 1955, he founded McDonald’s System, Inc., which would later become McDonald’s Corporation. Six years later, he acquired the exclusive rights to the McDonald’s name and operating system.
In 1958, the chain celebrated a major milestone: the sale of 100 million hamburgers. Today, McDonald’s is one of the most recognized fast food brands globally, with over 36,000 restaurants in more than 100 countries around the world.
How many McDonald’s are there in the United States?
Currently, the company has 13,598 restaurants in 54 states of the United States.
