QUOTE COLUMBUS, Ohio — After two past rejections, the owner of Arby's shaved roast beef sandwich restaurants is buying Wendy's, the fast-food chain famous for its made-to-order square hamburgers and chocolate Frosty dessert, for around $2 billion. I wonder what this means for the chain, if they'll combine the stores/products or what. Pretty big buyout. |

They are franchises, so maybe some cross menu items? I bet it would piss some owners off if they are in the same vicinity of each other.

Wrigleys (the gum company) is reportedly being sold for $22 billion... Wendy's is only $2 billion!?!?
That is strange to me |

Mars candy bought them
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

that's true, but also think about this. i've seen altoids, orbitz gum, and wrigley's gum all over the world. they have a huge international market as far as i know.
wendy's isn't in too many countries. i know they have one in japan, and that's all that i've heard about. -------------------- |
