This is IMHO, why companies like McDonalds or Budweiser are technically so impressive. A lot of people will criticize them for being crap or generic quality food and beverage products, but it takes a ridiculous amount of engineering to make a product that's consistent, at scale, all around the world. A family member used to work as an engineer at a large craft brewery and making a consistent product year-to-year was one of their biggest challenges and they didn't always get it right.

Yes, that’s impressive.
I’m not eating fast food since years now and don’t want to defend their business, but I always thought that the fast food you get at a huge chain like McDonalds is probably the most thoroughly tested you can buy.
