What does wheres the beef mean?
Answers:
it was from a Wendy's commercial back in the 80's. A little old lady would get a hamburger at some other fast food restaurant and upon looking at it ask "where's the beef?" as if to say other chains had smaller hamburgers than Wendy's did
Edna Bambrick
this is a question that asks where beef can be found or the beef's current position, beef-in this case- meaning meat from a cow
Back in the 80's, Wendy's had commercials where an old woman went to a competing fast food place, ordered a burger, opened it up and saw this tiny little hamburger patty that you could barely see inside the bun. She said "Where's the beef?" It was meant to say that Wendy's gave you more meat than the other places.
It comes from an old McDonald's commercial...But some lucky women have found the answer in my pants.

That saying is from an 80s TV commercial for Wendys. They touted the size of their burgers compared to others. They had an old lady who would look at a small burger and yell "wheres the beef".

First, "Wheres the" is referring to searching for something, being "the". Beef is the item which is referenced in this case. One searching for ham, or a plastic bag may say, "Wheres the ham?", or "Wheres the plastic bag?"
Again, someone looking for beef, possibly in form of a hamburger, briscuit, or meatloaf.
It was an ad campaign back in the 80's with this old lady who went to a fast food joint and got a hamburger and opened it up and there was this tiny patty and she said where's the beef? I think the ad was for Wendy's
"Where's the beef?" is a catch phrase limited to certain parts of the United States. It has become an all-purpose phrase questioning the substance of an idea, event or product.
The saying comes from an old Wendy's commercial where this old lady looks at a hamburger from a competitor that has a tiny little meat patty in the middle of the bun and she says, "where's the beef?"
It was funny for about five minutes.
Now people use it to mean, "there's nothing to this," or, "your idea has no substance"...etc..
The saying "Wheres the Beef?" came from a Wendy's commercial from about 1984. There was an old lady that was looking at a little hamburger and asks the question.
It's an old commercial...to make beef important. Kind of like "pork the other white meat".
That is a quote from a Wendy's commercial that aired in the '80s. The quote was suppose to suggest the other fast food hamburger places didn't place as much meat on their hamburgers as Wendy's did.
Not enough meat in the hamburgers.. this was a burger king commericial (I think)
It's an old slogan for Wendy's hamburgers
Comes from an old Wendy's commercial. Checking out the hamburger in a competitors restaurant the actress is unhappy with the lack of meat in the burger. The little lady that asks the question is about 4 feet tall with a really comical face. It was a great commerical
Famous Wendy's commercial.
