In 1989, Wendy’s used rap for their training video
Corporate really said “how do we teach burger assembly?” and someone in the boardroom replied “drop a track.” The commitment to turning standard operating procedures into a full studio session is honestly impressive.
The video is from a 1989 Wendy’s employee training tape where a high-energy rap walks workers through properly assembling single and double cheeseburgers. The lyrics explain how to briefly melt the cheese on a “juicy spot” on the grill, use a spatula instead of bare hands, place cheese between patties for doubles so the heat melts it naturally, and finish by draining and serving the burger neatly. The serious step-by-step instructions delivered with full late-’80s rap flair are what make the whole thing unforgettable.
