Why do brands enjoy committing suicide by changing who they are fundamentally even though New Coke taught everyone that...

the IHOB twitter is literally spurdo.

I think its a meme-ish joke. They will never pay for new signs for all their franchise locations to say IHOBB, FUGG.

Just lol
and then theres a nigger feeding a fat autist a burger
kek

how is the market not already completely saturated with burgers? pancakes makes sense, not every restaurant sells pancakes, especially not for dinner menu. if you want pancakes or any breakfast food then ihop is for sure going to give you what you want as it says pancakes right in the name. if you want burgers then you can just throw a rock from the window of your car while blindfolded and it will hit a random burger restaurant, why do we need more places that sells burgers. my mind is completely boggled right now

>New Coke taught everyone that it doesn't work?
wrong, it worked exactly as planned.
1) spawn 'new coke'
2) public outcry (free publicity)
3) bring back 'coke classic'
4) sales now 25% higher than before step 1) and customers happier and more loyal than ever

great con

They're not getting rid of pancakes or even changing their name, hell they're not even changing for a short time like 7-11 did when it became Kwik-E-Mart for the Simpsons movie.

It's just a marketing stunt, nothing more.

I agree OP this is a stupid fucking idea. IHOP was unique because of their 24 hour breakfast, specifically PANCAKES. IHOB or whatever the fuck just shot itself in the foot.

Reverse trap?

fuck me its working, i am already thinking about pancakes. i have never been to an ihop do they have good pancakes? i would assume so since it says pancakes right on the sign

woah, 24 hours
all day breakfast
pancakes
i cant stop thinking about pancakes right now
i wonder if there is a location near me
i am a consumer whore
>bitch just make your own pancakes
no

if you like partially hydrogenated soi oil-slathered diabeetus soaked in artificially colored high fructose corn syrup, then you'll love it

Theor customers are getting older and can no longer identify with hopping into ihop for some breakfast. Instead, they’ll will hobble into ihob later for lunch or an early dinner.

Dan Keough talked about New Coke and it basic amounted to.

“Some critics will say Coca-Cola made a marketing mistake. Some cynics will say that we planned the whole thing. The truth is we’re not that dumb and we’re not that smart."

never mind then, im just going to make another sandwich for lunch then. my all day breakfast dreams have just been crushed flatter then a pancake. i dont eat transgenic monsanto corn or onions because i dont want to die an early painful death

Muh non organic non pure food
Nigga I have loaded multiple drugs in my body for years. Still look a few years younger than my age. In shape even tho I don't work out and so on...
Not trippin on artificial colors that you will never ever notice the negative effects of.
Grow some balls and live a little

brainlets love personal anecdotes over statistical evidence
>my grandma smoked a pack a day her whole life and she lived to be over a hundred. ciggarettes are fine, grow some balls and live a little, light up, only pussies get cancer

>being proud that you willingly consume the equivalent of human rat poison, being soft killed by the global establishment like a dumb animal
lol
dude, have some pride and self respect, you are a human bean

we kill rats by putting poison in tasty treats. are you as dumb as a rat?

This reminds me of when Rich Piana went on a rant about how IHOP cooked their pancakes on the same griddles they used for sausages and how that made all the pancakes taste like sausage. He also brought up that when you ordered chocolate chip, blueberry, strawberry pancakes or w/e they didn't actually cook them within the pancakes, they just plopped that stuff on top of plain sausage tasting pancakes and served it to you. IHOP's biggest problem is the quality of their food.

When I realized there are just as many people who are health freaks getting cancer
As there are degenerates I laughed.. And lost all care

I'll be damned if I'm eating bland food for years on end, exercising , doing the right thing....and end up with cancer kek

It's unironically the hand you are dealt which determines... outside factors only make like 10 percent of it

Plus ... I'm a pleasure seeker. I have a little self control but not much. Gib dopamine release pls

>even though New Coke taught everyone that it doesn't work?

This has nothing to do with new coke. New Coke eliminated normal coke and replaced it with new coke. For IHOP to do the same they would have to eliminate pancakes and replace them with burgers.

The thing is literally EVERYONE smoked in the 1950s, your grandparents probably smoked, but did they all die of lung-disease? Hell no. It greatly increases your CHANCES of getting said diseases but so does drinking soda and eating fried balogne. My main issue is smoking has been unfairly demonized when there are all sorts of things that will debilitate or kill you in life.

Have you ever cooked pancakes?

They taste much better in sausage grease.

Lol it’s true though only pussies get cancer

and i will not willingly ingest foods that were designed in a lab somewhere with the specific purpose of acting as a soft kill poison eugenics program. they are ramping up their efforts, the unhealthy foods of your parents time are nothing compared to the unhealthy shit released in the last 20 years, you wont last another 20 eating this shit. it was designed to kill you by very smart people who do not intend to fail

This is a stunt to advertise their new burgers. The change won't be permanent.

>It's unironically the hand you are dealt which determines... outside factors only make like 10 percent of it
this is rue as far as basic unhealthy shit goes. you dont realize they have since taken things to the next level. eat all the fatty bacon and eggs or whatever you like, i get that, your argument isnt wrong in that sense. but compare an ingredient label from today to one from 20 years ago and there is all kinds of new shit, look into that new shit and find studies linking all of it to death. when you buy a tasty treat at the store and the label has about 15 different ingredients that you cant even pronounce, none of that shit was around when your father was your age. the transgenic corn and soi took off in your lifetime, and look at how physically weak todays generation is, its not just lack of exercise. look how faggy millenials are, its not just the brainwashing. its chemical, its in the food.

How long have you been in the health nutt scene? Where do I start
Do I just start researching food?
Seems hard to care when I use to mix meth and heroin into the same shot.

I probably already shaved off a good 10 off my life, not like I want to be an oldfag anyway
