Wendy’s and McDonald’s have emerged victorious from a lawsuit that accused the fast food chains of false advertising.

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit brought against the two companies accusing them of selling smaller hamburgers than advertised and alleging the food didn’t look as appetizing in person as pictured on their websites.

    You could argue that menus are just in-store advertising

      A lot of things in stores have to add disclaimers about what is on the cover of the box vs what’s on the inside. I don’t see how fast food gets a pass on that. Or why people are just okay with it too.

        Hey I’m not defending them, just trying to imagine what justification they’d use.
