          Wendys burgers aren't square >>> White Castles are square.
          And another trivia fact about Wendys it that they became popular b/c they made their burgers out of fresh meat. I don't know if they do that anymore

            Their buns are round, but the patties are square. :)

              The idea for Wendy's "old fashioned" hamburgers was actually inspired by a Kalamazoo, Michigan chain called Kewpee Hamburgers

                I could be wrong but I think it was Lima OH that Kewpee hamburgers originated there are still three of them left including the original one .

                  I guessed Wendys too. But they weren't the first fast-food resturant. The first one was McDonalds. And it was near-by where I live---in Garden City, Mich .
