People on Twitter right now are losing their minds over packaging … and we can’t decide whether it leaves us feeling nostalgic, unhealthy, or just … old.
It began with this Tweet:

And suddenly this morning, “Yellow Wendy’s” was trending—and with it, a surge of packaging and environment design from the past.
For those of us who remember a time when fast food wasn’t considered abysmal for both the body and the planet (looking at you, ubiquitous styrofoam containers), it’s a fascinating trip down memory lane. For those of you who did not live through these eras … welcome to the past.

People are talking about Yellow Wendy’s, but not mentioning early 90’s Subway, complete with yellow furniture and newspaper wallpaper…about subways. pic.twitter.com/A2E6Iux1vG
