In Bloomington, Indiana, back in 1934, Edward Gold created Wimpy Grills. A hamburger joint inspired by the Popeye cartoon character, Wimpy quickly expanded outside the US making a name for itself in the UK, South Africa, and the Middle East. Since the 70s Wimpy has been serving up its classic Egg Burger to customers in Kuwait, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, introducing the region to good old American fast food. After a decades-long hiatus from Egypt and Saudi, Wimpy is back with a fresh new take on burgers.
