2017 is already looking to be a good year—especially for Wendy’s—who recently won an incredible Twitter feud.

However, a Twitter user with the handle @NHRide fired back questioning Wendy‘s claims about never freezing its beef:

The Twitter user promptly deleted his account. Lesson learned: Don’t mess with Wendy’s on social media.
