Wendy's 4 for 4 Burger May Soon Need a Microscope to See It [View all]

Here at Wendy's on South Street, by Lakewood Bod, near Los Angeles; and the same drive thru window gal says the burgers are the same size they've always been.

Puhhhllleeeaaassseee.....

1st of all, she's too dam young to make such a statement.

2ndly, this consumer is 61 years old, and he knows the real history of Wendy's (BullChit about Dave having daughter {Look up - Judy's} ).

Additionally, everybody's burgers are getting smaller.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm going to keep buying the 4 items for $4 because the doublestack is a cool deal for $1 and Wendy's nuggets are the best.

The 50 cents Frosty - this month - is awesome!

That being said - DAM!

Look at these pictures. My hand hasn't grown. The sandwich is barely bigger than 2 nuggets or 2 sauces. The handle on my stickshift is dang near bigger.

How long will it be before we need a Microscope to See the $1 specials?

Just sayin........
