Wendy's sells a single with cheese for almost two dollars.
But then there's this Double Stack thing they sell. It's just like the Big Mac: "two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun". This sandwich is only $1.29 (previously 99 cents).
The beef patties are the smaller 2 ounce ones, but with two of them it's the same portion as a single with a 4 ounce patty. And, of course, it has cheese. So essentially, a Double Stack is a single with cheese--but they market it differently and they price it lower.
Wendy's also has their long-time standard "have it your way" service philosophy, where you can build your burger any way you want.
Question: is it immoral or unethical to want a single with cheese, ketchup, pickle, onion, lettuce, and tomato--but actually to order the cheaper Double Stack and ask them to hold the special sauce but put ketchup on instead and add tomato?
Oh, man, this marketing world we live in! It's too confusing to know what to do!
