Diners are a stereotypical feature of American food as they originate from this country, they are featured all around the United States. Wendy's is one of the most commercialised diner's around the USA. When taking a glance at the website's homepage, it has colours such as red and blue, which suggest a representation of the colours of the American flag. Also when looking at the logo, the girl in the picture has a typically American appearance, but in particular she has a westernised appearance. The logo almost symbolises America as an whole and their way of life.
When looking at Wendy's story on how it was founded, the pictures are typically American and hold american features. For example the design of the diner is very American and resembles a symbolism of cowboys, which also emphasises the westernisation of the american diner. Looking at the founder of Wendy's, it states 'Dave Thomas dreamed he'd run the best restaurant in the world. He didn't just achieve this dream, he shared it with everyone.' This is a typically american view as it utilises the idea of the 'American Dream' and the self motivation and determination that Wendy's seems to pride itself on.
