Dave Thomas' nasty little lie

Anyone tried Wendy's new pita's? Probably, there apparently the companies most successful new product ever. Some of them are even advertised as vegetarian (that was a pleasant surprise from a fast food co.). Too bad no one at Wendy's knew that the gelatin in the sauce that comes with the "vegetarian" pita is not an acceptable ingredient for vegetarians. Oh well, the company says, there isn't very much gelatin in it anyway (any is too mch as far as Im concerned). The company says they'll change the sauce when existing supplies run out - probably in a couple of months.

I tried to complain at the companies web site but the public terminal I'm using apparently isn't configured right. I urge al who care to complain to the company to ensure these companies understand what "vegetarian" means.

McSpotlight comment:

Why complain to the company? Wouldn't it be more effective to complain to the approbriate advertising standards authority since their claim regarding the vegetarian nature of their product is clearly inaccurate..
