It's Waaaaay Not Gourmet Food

Gourmet food at Wendy's?

Almost seems like a joke right?

Earlier this week I drove past a local Wendy's and their sign out front proudly promoted: "Try our Gourmet Mushroom Swiss Burger". I was so entertained and confused I almost drove clear off of the road. I didn't have my camera with me, but I considered pulling over to take a picture of the sign because I thought it was a restaurant's desperate attempt to try and bring people in to try a new burger.

Later that same night I saw a commercial for Wendy's Gourmet Mushroom Swiss Burger. What the heck?

Here is the definition of Gourmet Food: food of the highest quality and flavor, prepared well and presented in an artful manner. A gourmet restaurant is: one considered to serve the highest quality food.

Wendy's give us Frosty's and Good Old Fashioned Burgers! You're not a gourmet restaurant!
