'Where's the beef?' ad turning 30 this week
 

It’s hard to believe that 30 years ago this month, Wendy’s first aired its iconic “Where’s the beef?” ad.

The commercial, which first debuted on the small screen on Jan. 10, 1984, featured three white-haired women examining a hamburger. As they rave about the large and fluffy hamburger bun, one woman, Clara Peller, addresses the obviously small hamburger patty paired with the bun.

Wants to join the "cereal box" dating service. I've dated enough flakes and nuts...all I want is the prize now.

The ad is 30, but already has clogged arteries.

Never saw a single one of them live.  I was in Europe and we heard all about it but 30 years ago the only TV we had was local European stations.  On base we got Afee's but there were no commercials.  Good times.  lol

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.
 

Poor Clara got fired for doing a commercial for another product I seem to recall.

It was for another meat industry.  "Pork me" just didn't resonate with the public.
