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.

    But there’s no way to do that. Should they weigh every patty to be 0.255 lb??

      There’s no way to do that? McDonald’s cooks the same burger probably millions of times a day, the patties are cooked for a set amount of time at a certain temperature,they have the process down to a science, and you say there’s no way to do that?

      They’re not incentivised to do that maybe. But not “there’s no way to do that.” You can certainly calculate to a small margin how much weight the patty should lose after cooked.
