New York CNN —Wendy’s and McDonald’s have emerged victorious from a lawsuit that accused the fast food chains of false advertising. Major fast food chains, including Burger King, Arby’s and Taco Bell, have all been targets lately for lawsuits that allege they’re misrepresenting food in their marketing. The explosion has been largely driven by the efforts of a handful of lawyers arguing that food in ads appears more bountiful than what customers actually get. In response, the fast food chains deny the accusations. Burger King, for example, said about a similar lawsuit that “reasonable consumers viewing food advertising know” that food in ads “has been styled to make it look as appetizing as possible.”
