The owner of Wetson’s a (my belief) now-defunct treif burger joint, was one Mr. Wetanson, a Jew. Many Jews unfortunately went into treif businesses, both literally and figuratively. But when a place IS kosher, don’t put it down. There are kosher KFCs in E”Y, as well as McDonald’s (OK, maybe it is McDavid’s), and there used to be a kosher Nathan’s in Brooklyn. The possible reason for keeping the “treif” name, is to make the place marketable to ALL types of people to shop there, not just frum people. Do you go to kosher Dunkin’ Donuts?
