As for KFC, it's well known for its "fried-chickens". And as for McDonald's, BURGERS will be its trademark and its signboard's menu! [招牌菜] =D

And why Burger??? Because It doesn't kill as much as him?

KFC is famous for its fried-chicken because its founder, Harland Sanders created & cooked delicious fried-chickens with his blends of 11herbs and spices' secret recipe.

As for McDonald's, it's founded by Dick & Mac McDonald. It began in 1937 that "The Airdrome", Arcadia in California was the first restaurant opened by the two brothers selling hotdogs, orange juice, coffee and tea. Then later in 1940, they moved their restaurant to San Bernadino, California and renamed it as "McDonald's Barbecue Restaurant" that their menu had expand which includes Barbecue Ribs and Beefs and Pork Sandwiches. The restaurant later became the #1 teen hangout in San Bernadino Area.

Dick McDonald studied his menus...

The Apple Pie

French Fries

Twister Fries

Chicken McNuggets

And he discovered that 80% of the restaurant's sales generated by hamburgers that they realized the future also relied on speed of service and mass production. In the October 1948, McDonald's Barbecue had closed to change concepts emphasizing speed, lower price & volumes. Later in December 1948, McDonald's Restaurant re-opened with its new feature "Speedbee Service System" selling 15c hamburgers & 10c fries.

In 1954, an unknown exclusive distributor of five spindled milk shaker maker [Multimixer] named Raymond Albert Kroc [Ray Kroc] heard that McDonald's Hamburger stand in California runs eight multimixers at a time.

Out of curiousity, he packed up his car and headed to San Bernadino. When he reached there, he really got amazed and really "open big eyes see world" [大开眼界] that he had never seen so many people served so quickly. Idea of opening several restaurants to the Dick & Mac McDonald strucked into his mind. That's how and when McDonald's Restaurant got franchise.

Thanks to him, we now have McDonald's everywhere and brought into our region, South East Asia that we have McDonald's in Brunei. When we're in Malaysia, we can eat McDonald's too!!! =D
