Wendy’s Just Dragged McDonalds On Twitter And It’s Hilariously Savage
What’s up with fast food restaurants upping their Twitter game these days? I mean, it’s a pleasant surprise, but I can only take so many savage Twitter wars at a time.
This time, Wendy’s decided to take a hit at McDonalds, who just made this announcement via Twitter.
Today we've announced that by mid-2018, all Quarter Pounder burgers at the majority of our restaurants will be cooked with fresh beef. pic.twitter.com/Bdf99ALlxw

Wendy’s, of course, has made a pretty big deal out of how fresh its food is in its ad campaigns, so I guess it’s not that surprising that they had something to say. I just didn’t expect it to be so shady.
.@McDonalds So you’ll still use frozen beef in MOST of your burgers in ALL of your restaurants? Asking for a friend.

But why take one shot when you could take multiple?
Only when the ice cream machine isn't broken.

Trust me, Wendy’s KNOWS its own savagery, and no one knows quite how to handle it.

Of course, Wendy’s had to swerve some of its own haters while it was at it.

The only joke here is this announcement.

And then Whataburger joined in because, you know, why not?
We always keep it fresh!

It may not be Nicki Minaj and Remy Ma, but hey, it’s still pretty entertaining. I’m gonna have to take Whataburger’s side on this one, though.
