Wendy's customers only just realising 'strange design' in logo after 45 years

It has more than 7,000 restaurants worldwide, but many Wendy's customers are only just noticing the 'strange' design choice in its logo. Founder Dave Thomas created the Wendy's logo in his daughter's image back in 1969 when Melinda Lou 'Wendy' Thomas-Morse was just eight-years-old.

From 1969 to 2013, the cartoon version of the girl's picture was stamped alongside the words 'Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers'. But it was only after the logo change in 2013 when many customers started to question the 'strange' design choice that had been staring them in the face for 45 long years.

In the old-style logo, the word 'Wendy's' is written using a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters throughout the word - like 'WEnDy'S'. Taking to Reddit, one user said: "I've been eating at Wendy's for years and just realised the 'N' in the logo is lower case."
