ELI5:how does a company like McDonald's make their food taste exactly the same on such a large scale?

forgive my ignorance. but a bigmac has tasted the exact same in Maimi in 1999 as it does in LA in 2004. its always the same no matter the time or place.

Highly controlled food quality, highly controlled cooking process, highly controlled preparation.

That's one of their big selling points as a restaurant.  It doesn't matter where you go... the food is the same.  Not necessarily good (for you or otherwise) but its the same.  A safe bet if you are new to the area.
