wendysBillionaire investor Nelson Peltz, owner of Arby's, bought Wendy's for $2.34 billion, merging these two fast food phenomenons under a single, organized management. BUT... is this necessarily good? Will the hailed Arby's Roast Beef Sandwiches necessarily mesh well with Wendy's comforting Hot Stuffed Baked Potatoes?
The four of us in abce inc. decided to conduct some onfield research and take on roles as mystery shoppers in which we secretly rated the food of both major food chains.
HOWEVER, the four of us are split in our group decision as Ellen and Lauren (aka C & A) took pure delight in Arby's classic melt sandwich and the ever refreshing Jamoca Shake. After an appetizing meal, they walked away convinced that Arby's recent take-over of Wendy's would be for the better. Clearly, they were "Thinking Arby's"
On the other hand, Austin and Marshall (aka E & B) begged to differ with their candid fascination of Wendy's championed square hamburgers and its famous Frosty™ Shakes. Finishing their meal, they were appalled that their newfound haven would be under new management. Their argument? Simply that "It's Wendy's."
In order to resolve our dispute and form a solid consensus in our mystery shopper report, we need your help. Please give any and all feedback as to whether the recent merging of Arby's and Wendy's is in fact beneficial or not.
