However, burgers were more popular with the public and the business model switched to a [[carhop]] drive-in style of restaurant. From the 1940s to the mid-1950s, the brothers expanded their business, even incorporating the famous [[Golden Arches]], until [[Ray Kroc]] turned their small business into the well-known and commercially successful business it is today.
