US fast food franchise Wendy's is planning to open 'hundreds' of restaurants in Australia it isn't the first time the burger giant has dipped its toe in our market. 9News

Wendy's is the world's third-largest burger giant after McDonald's and Burger King with 1000 international restaurants and a whopping 7000 restaurants in the US since it opened in 1969.

Social media users shared their memories of Wendy's in Australia nearly four decades ago with a common thread being it didn't stack up to McDonald's."Never stood a chance against the Maccas behemoth!" "The one in the basement in Bourke St Mall was my addiction for the years it was there," a social media user said.READ MORE:But the franchise was not successful after it collapsed in 1985 with $8 million in debts.

Ban fast food. Sick food.

My hot take on this, 1stly, must have HQ in Melbourne and must have pineapple 🍍 on their burger

Australians will never eat a place called ‘Wendy’s”. Shazza’s maybe, but not Wendy’s.

Australia doesn’t need more American style burgers. Bring back Australian hamburgers and ditch the Asian slop shops.

What's the big problem? Australia is a market economy, not a Soviet-style Socialist sh_thole. It's what has resulted in such a high standard of living over the years. Let them in! Nobody is holding a gun to anybody's head saying they have to partake.

I just saw the report in Perth announcing this and it was so negative and health fear mongering. People know not to eat nothing but fast food we don't need to constantly be reminded. It's miserable. And seriously, 'obesegenic enviroment'

Nice Always preferred a Wendy's dog over a maccas crap pile...I mean, burger, anyday

Wonder how the existing Wendy's hotdog/milkbar franchises across Australia feel about this?
