PICS: These two fast-food restaurants had a war-of-words with their signs

Rory Cashin

You wouldn’t see this kind of behaviour between a Supermacs and an Abrakebabra…

What we really want to know is what exactly is the history going on here? Is this just playful banter? Or do the people in charge of the signs have some kind of long and bitter feud going on?

Wendy’s (a burger joint) and Pure Water (who make fancy teas and cakes and stuff) have a branch each on the same intersection in Texas, and it all began when – apparently – Wendy’s put up a sign that was very similar to a sign that Pure Water had put up.

In response, Pure Water changed their sign to say “Hey Wendy’s that sign looks familar”, to which Wendy’s replied:

As you can see there, Pure Water responded with “You want beef Wendy’s you’ve got it”, and from there, all bets were off…..

We’re not sure where things stand in the cold war between these two outlets right now, but fingers crossed someone can be sent in to help with the negotiations for a cease-fire. Maybe the KFC Colonel? He must have war experience, right? He is a Colonel after all…
