Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Just about anywhere you go in the world, you can find a McDonald's. Burger King, Wendy's, KFC and Starbucks also blanket the country from coast to coast. It's once of the dubious mysteries of life that you can get the same thing to eat whether you're in Portland, Maine or Portland, OR. We take it for granted that these foods are always available. But all those chains had to start out someplace, with a single storefront and a little ambition. The folks over at Walletpop have created a slideshow that documents the first location for many of your favorite food chains. Did you know that the first Dairy Queen was in Joliet, Ill? It opened in 1938 and by 1950 it had 1,446 locations nationwide. Bob Evans expanded a little more slowly, starting with a single location in 1948. Today they have 600 restaurants across 18 states.
