SAN DIEGO, CA, January 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) Food and Drink Digital, a top digital media source for global food and drink news and information reaching over 155,646 C-Level executives and more than 49,814 companies worldwide announces the launch of its newly developed Front of Book story featuring the history behind three of the most popular fast food franchises.
This article includes a brief, yet detailed account of how Taco Bell, McDonald's and Burger King got started.
"McDonald's restaurants have been around since the 1930s consisting of car-hop drive-ins started by Ray Kroc. The menu was simple: hamburgers, cheeseburgers, French fries, shakes, soft drinks, and apple pie. By 1954, the carhops were eliminated to make McDonald's a self-serve operation, with no tables to sit at, no jukebox, and no telephone. The goal was to have McDonald's attract families rather than just teenagers," the article says. Read the full article here.

iPhone Insurance Provider Asks: Anyone Lost a 4ft Yam?
2011-01-15
A life-size Dalek, a 4ft tall vegetable (a yam), and gold dentures worth GBP6,500 are some of the more unusual items that have been left behind by guests at the Travelodge hotel chain*. And while it is questionable how these guests could have forgotten to take these particular possessions with them when they checked out, accidentally forgetting smaller, day to day items such as mobile phones, laptops and jewellery is a slightly more understandable occurrence.
Quoted on the BBC news website, a spokesman from the hotel chain said that in 2010 they had seen a real increase ...

Illinois DUI Fee Increase Rings in the New Year
2011-01-15
The impact of a DUI conviction can hit a driver in many ways: license suspension, ignition interlock requirements, increased insurance rates, a criminal record and lost opportunities due to background checks should be a concern for anyone facing DUI charges. But legal fines can also place a significant burden on convicted drunk drivers, and Illinois drivers face an increase from $500 to $750 in administrative fees if they are found guilty of driving under the influence (Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code) in 2011.
For the most part, the new revenue will increase ...
Synthetic Marijuana, Illegal in Illinois
