Al Bernardin, inventor of the McDonald’s Quarter Pounder, died of a stroke last month at 81. Although the Quarter Pounder is his most famous creation, he also helped develop the frozen french fry. His other contributions as vice president of product development at McDonald’s include the Filet-O-Fish and hot apple and cherry pies.
