Default Wendy's frosty, why won't they biggie size it?

I keep asking the local Wendy's for a biggie size frosty, but they
refuse. The biggest cup they'll give me is the traditional large.
Can someone please explain to me whatever reason they might have? I
want an extra large cup full of frosty all the way to the top instead
of Coke, and I'm willing to pay extra. I love frosties and can
probably eat gallons of the stuff.

It's appalling that people want pizza delivery and don't respect the
service.

Actually it is only you they won't biggy size it for. They're afraid you
won't be able to get out the door when you've finished it.

Back in the day, most fast food joints had one size for items. It was
kind of nice, the menu was simple, and everyone was happy. If you
wanted more fries, buy two. Want more coke? Buy two. Want a bigger
burger? Buy two.

See where this is going?

It's appalling that people want pizza delivery and don't respect the
service.


Seeing that I live 19 miles from the nearest pizza joint (and that one
doesn't deliver), if someone
actually could deliver a hot pizza they'd get a whopping big tip.

They probably determined that a larger cup would cause the contents to
melt too much before the average person could finish it all.
