The Internet world is in a buzz of confusion. Or at least some of its denizens are, after a Wendy's coupon offered up a "Free Small Hot Original Redhead" with any purchase. Sounds like a good deal — or it sounds like you could get a small ginger person, if you aren't aware that Redhead Roasters is Wendy's newish moniker for its coffee. More »

Wendy's Set To Dethrone Burger King As #2 Fast Food Destination
By Chris Morran on December 21, 2011 11:30 AM

In the over 40 years since Wendy's began slinging burgers, the fast food chain has never been able to slip past competitor Burger King, which seemed to have a permanent lock on the runner-up slot behind McDonald's. But the newest numbers indicate that while the Ohio-based burger joint is set to leap-frog BK into the number two spot in total sales, even though it has almost 1,400 fewer stores in the U.S. More »

This dream eludes him, though, because all of the restaurants in his area charge $1.39 for the 99-cent menu items. Sure, it's still cheap, but that doesn't mean it doesn't bother him. More »
