What Secret Message Is Hiding In The Wendy's Logo?

"Wendy's on Monday debunked the theory that it purposefully snuck a hidden message within its new logo.

Speculation about the subliminal message behind the logo, released last year, had been swirling since at least April when some people began to notice a word in the new image of the red-headed girl." *

Other famous brands (Amazon, FedEx, Goodwill, Tostitos, Baskin Robbins) also contain secret messages. Is it good design or subliminal messaging? Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.

Really? Mom? That's the secret message. I thought it would be some subliminal illuminati message. I'm out. Peace.

Hey, at least they didn't go into the " illuminati" theories.

I got food poisoning at a Wendy's in Roseville, CA! A junior bacon cheeseburger kept me there for 5 days!

My uncle works a FedEx and Wendy's he never realized these things

The Wendy's thing is BS. The others were fascinating. I never noticed these things either.

Let me preface by saying, "I am not a conspiracy theorist." That being said, growing up back in the 60's and 70's I do not recall TV ad volume being one iota louder than whatever program I was watching. I recall back then, learning about subliminal messages and that subliminal advertising was illegal. I also recall that prohibiting "jacking up the volume" for TV ads was bundled in with the legislation. Over the last few years I have noticed that TV ad volumes have increased dramatically in relation to the scheduled program, so much so, that in 2012 legislation ( the CALM act) was introduced prohibiting this practice. What I find extremely peculiar: after doing some research; is I can find absolutely no information about why or when the prior legislation banning TV ad volume jacking was relaxed. Do the research yourself. It is as if the problem never existed prior to the last decade. As if no TV advertising ever jacked the volume, as if no one ever noticed or complained about it. I find it hard to believe that this is a phenomena only relevant to the last decade or so. Like I said at the outset of my comments, I find the whole thing very strange. Very strange indeed ...

Just looks like good, clever, and maybe even artistic (in the Warhol sense) marketing.

Whoever designed these logos earned their paycheques.

I bet you also didn't notice the freckles! The left patch of freckles, if connected, shows a letter 'W' for Wendy or Wendy's. Then, the right side shows an obvious constellation of the little, or big dipper. It might just be a coincidence, but the freckles were a great find. I would very much like to here your guys' interpretation of it!

OMG HIDDEN MESSAGE ILLUMINATI HALF LIFE 4 CONFIRMED

[justinemcallister]

it's weird because once they point it out U can never just look at it with out

[andrewsmith]

Hahaha when I was little I remember calling the baskin robins down the street from my house the "31 place".

[Emi]

I find it kind of funny that the FedEx logo on the trucks the arrow is facing the wrong way xD 

[C_mao]

_the irony, is that, Dave Thomas 'the founder of Wendy's' was an 'orphan' ! and, 'yes', i 'did' notice the 'mom' and knowing this made me kinda sad, 'dammit' don't do this Wendy's!
.. and, i agree w Anna on this one; of the fast food places, Wendy's gets the nod for 'quality'! ..also, i 'luv' Anna's smile in this one! she looks 'so' happy! and that, is charming!

[kittycat]

I keep pranking my sis with this say "look sis it mom"

[shayoko]

wendys is my favorite place when it comes to the type of food they sell
a bit more expensive tho

If it's readable, it's intentional. Just doing even local radio ad work it might surprise some people how much time, effort and thought we put into all the little details. There are no accidents in advertising when millions are being spent, regardless of any denials. And the Wendy's actor is motherly as well..she shames the guy who "Italian" kisses a stranger. She's not a peer..rather, a scold. 

[creed]

I noticed the word "mom" on the Wendy's bag too

[LVLYo-YoGuy]

hey they helped lots of foster children find permanent family's and for that I give Wendy's a hug.
