Was kinda hyped for this because I love silly crap, but then I remembered how terrible a company Wendy’s is...

I am a bit disappoint that CR would work with such a company.

How so?

How so?

They do not pay or treat their workers as well as other fast food companies, is the big one. Some sketchiness about their supply chain, too. Not a super-duper ethical company by the standards of the fast food industry.

The salad was not good. Expensive but not good.

What they said, but also, they interfered with/opposed work to protect the people who work the farms that provide their produce.

They also have strong ties financially to political figures and organizations that are in direct and unreconcilable opposition to the espoused ideals of the CR team.

That’s about all that can be said without “discussing politics”. If you google “wendy’s Controversy”, it should bring up results that will further illuminate the situation.

Wow, I had no idea ...

Making it especially egregious, all the other fast food companies, literally all of them, got on board the ethical treatment of workers train. Just Wendy's put up a fight.
