Going back to Brandon's post about the documentary "Supersize Me" could have something to do with that timing about healthy choices in food.

I don't think so, as that movie came out in 2004. Wendy's has been serving salads since March 2002.

Not according to their website here[/color].

The first restaurant opened November 15, 1969.

Wendy's was the first national restaurant to introduce the Salad Bar in November 1979.

In March 1992, they added 5 new salads to the menu.

In March 2002, they introduced a new line of 4 entrée salads.

October 1983, the baked potato was introduced, making Wendy's the first chain to offer baked potatoes nationwide.

I'm appalled. You used an unnecessary modifier (really) to modify another unnecessary modifier (really) to modify a strong word (disgusting). Your extensive use of unnecessary word modification had the net effect of weakening, rather than strengthening, the force of your message.

I'm appalled. I'm really, really appalled


I'm afraid to respond. I know Debra is out there. Somewhere.


Watching.

hmm.. so they didnt begin with salads, but in the big scheme of fast food, they were definatly the FIRST to offer salads and other menu items aside fried food, burgers.. etc..

i remember when Wendys still had salad bars in their restaurants and you could order a burger to GO WITH your salad..
but then, theburgers were not square, they were basic burgers that you put what you wanted on top from the salad bar

Yup, Wendy's was first with a lot of stuff. Quite innovative for the time I think.

I like the idea of a salad bar and being able to put what you want on your burger. Too bad they didn't keep that.

better than the 'fly through' windows they have here in austria. seriously, there is not a day that i don't see somebody unconscious on the street. or at least bleeding profusely after a drunken fight. wiener schnitzel and a pub brawl is the usual evening menu...

I ate at the first Wendy's restaurant, in Columbus, Ohio, in early 1970. The burgers were square. I have never known of any other kind of Wendy's burger...
