Just listening to a radio show, they just reported that Arby's has bought Wendy's. I think they are going to mix both fast food restuarant's like Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC places.

Article

The hosts of the show are talking about driving from Washington DC to North Carolina just to eat at a Jack in the Box. I may join them, I miss Jack in the Box.

What will they call the babies?

The article said the companies would remain autonomous entities, so it would be difficult to do that if they had franchises/locations with combined Arby's/Wendy's.

Take a look.. the majority of all the fast food joints are owned by one or two groups.

I believe, if I'm not mistaken, that Long John Silvers, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and KFC are owned by Pepsi. Does anyone know?

Until 1997, it also owned KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell, but these fast-food restaurants were spun off into Tricon Global Restaurants, now Yum! Brands, Inc.

YUM! also owns A&W.

Any body remember Burger Chef or Burger Queen?

I remember Burger Chef.

Yea, I remember both.

I hope Wendy's does not follow Arbys pricing.

Arbys is the only fastfood joint I ever go to (and thats not often) that I
feel I have been robbed.. LOL

I like Arbys and Wendys. Don't care for Mcds except for their fries, they are the best.

That's where part of that joke "I'm so hungry I could eat at Arby's" comes from. The other part comes from the Arby's aftermath.

After Dave Thomas died in 2002 things started heading down hill. The company closed the original Wendy's in downtown Columbus. Many people were upset by the closure. The quality of the food although better than most fast food resturants has slowly began to go downhill.

Most people in our area are afraid that they are gonna shut down the headquarters in Dublin. As for now Triarc, who bought Wendy's, says they'll stay put. But Triarc has been all over the place with Arby's and many fear the same will happen with Wendy's.
