Oh No, it's now the Frankmobile

[LuauLounge]

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Has Lost Its Wiener to Big Beef

Debuting in 1938, the Wienermobile was the brainchild of Oscar Mayer’s nephew, Carl G. Mayer. Now, almost 100 years of history is being changed.

Being Jewish I have felt slighted by the fact it's been called the ''Wiener'' mobile. the Frank mobile is the first step to getting the Kosher seal or approval. Shalom.

 

[Mini Kat]

Oops LMAO
The new Epstein boat.

 

[Sleek-Jet]

Who is Frank?

 

[retaocleg]

wasnt it called a weiner before it was given to an appendage?

 

[retaocleg]

Who is Frank?

all this nonsense has to open the eyes to see we are being socially engineered.........no?
changing the meanings of words? making normal things taboo?

Lol, who's got time for that?Most will rather have a kneejerk negative comment based on 3 or 4 words in a thread/article title.

 

[Chili Palmer]

The name change must have been decided by a pack of weenies!

I read it.
Sounded like bullshit to me.
90 years of tradition changed over a product offering that’s been around as long as Oscar Mayer?
Yeah right.
Believe that but dont believe ufo data. Lol

Piss on my head if you must, but don’t feed me bullshit about it raining.

 

[TrollerDave]

Did anyone else read the article and laugh like a 14 year old.
“Tube meat product”
“Wiener on wheels”
“Wiener wagon”

And my favorite
“driving craveability for our iconic delicious wieners for nearly 100 years,

Lol
I laughed at every part of that article.

All the while I kept hearing “my bologna has a first name…”

It ain't rain, it's an early monsoon.
.
The article also stated they'll see how the public accepts them being frank about their Franks. I personally don't give two fuks, it'll take a full generation before the Frankmobile will sound normal.

 

[TimeBandit]

When the "Wienermobile" would stop somewhere (in the 60's) it handed out Wiener whistles to the kids.

I remember them well.

So no more blowing wieners?

From the article:
Finally, the small "Wiener Whistle" toy (a Wienermobile-shaped whistle) given out to children when the dog rolls into town will now be known as "Frank Whistles" (super original, we know).

 

[cofooter]

Who is Frank

 

[Crazyhippy]

Frank Holbert is taking over the world after all...

 

[rrrr]

Why would a company drop 100 year old iconic name recognition for an awkward product name that sounds stupid and that no one will ever say?

"Hon, can you run down to Ralph's and get a couple packs of Franks?"

So no more hot dogs made of "Lips and Assholes"

Lips sphincters and lymph nodes are still in but if you want pork you'll need the wiener.

 

[napanutt]

Still have my weenie whistle from 2000 I’d guess.

 

[samsah33]

I'm wondering if it's just a promotional name change that will go back to wienermobile after the buzz dies down, similar to what IHOP did a few years back when they changed their name to IHOB for their new burgers. Let's be honest, we haven't talked about wieners this much since Anthony sent out dick pics to kids. Twice.

Please tell me that you did not wrap your lips around that thing. And blow or should I say suck?....LMAO

I’m still going to use hotdog.

It’s hotdog semantics it isn’t anything political

Weiner is a blend of meats.. frankfurter is 100% beef hence the name change

Really disappointing

No not really.
That’s a US marketing deal.
Franks are actually pork sausages originating in Frankfurt.
Wieners are a mix of pork and Beef originating in Vienna.
Hey, it’s Oscar Mayers car and hot dogs, they can call it what they want, whether it’s accurate or not I suppose.

 

[Roosky01]

Why can't it be an all beef wienermobile? Seems as if we are changing the meaning of pretty much everything these days...

Won't be long and it will be called Frank's trans-wiener I identify as a donut mobile.

Yeah I know.
That Oscar mayers marketing, they call their beef wieners Frank’s, but like most things we bastardized someone else’s creation.

You can rest easy now, the universe is back in equilibrium...

Oscar Mayer brings back the 'Wienermobile' name: 'Beloved American icon'

The Wienermobile name is back, just four months after Oscar Mayer announced that its fleet of vehicles would be known as "Frankmobiles" to promote hot dogs.
