As users struggle to wrap their minds around the ‘secret bear’, FEMAIL lays bare other secret symbols and messages hidden in famous logos – from smiley faces to numbers and snacks, just how many can you spot?

 Comfort food or fast food? Spot this secret message on the Wendy’s  logo

At first glance the fast food giant’s logo seems pretty straightforward, however if you look a little closer, you’ll see something unexpected. 

First opening in 1969, Wendy’s offered customers a fast-food with a touch of comfort, bringing them their favorite burgers, fries and more. 

And while the fast food giant may be your go to for a late night burger, have you ever spotted the secret message hidden in the collar of the Wendy’s blouse? 

If you look closely, there’s a secret word hidden. 

Written in the collar of her top is the word ‘mom.’

This nonprofit is the perfect place to donate both clothing and home items and recycle items you never use. 

Goodwill works hard to put a smile on everyone’s face so it makes sense the nonprofit would include a smiley face in their logo. 

And while the smiley face is as clear as day, many don’t know where the smiley face actually comes from.  

The community-based organization prides itself on working to make people’s loves better and their trademark proves it. 

The logo doubles as not just one but two smiling faces. 

The smiley face appearing at the center of the logo is actually just a larger version of the g in the word Goodwill, which is shown at the bottom of the logo.

The yellow circle represents the bike’s font wheel, the ‘u’ represents the bike’s seat and the O represents the back of the bike. 

And for just another nod to the biking competition, the yellow circle also doubles as a sun, which indicates that the events only occur in the daytime.

The major retail company that offers everything you need to work and learn, made sure to include a slight nod to their name in their logo, are you able to spot it? 

The office supply company included a pretty obvious aspect into their logo design, however, many customers have missed it over the years. 

If you look at the L, you’ll see that it doubles as a broken staple – which represents both the office items the store sells and the retail store’s name. 

Staples has since changed its logo and removed the bent staple and added a staple to the front of the word, however, many customers are complaining that it missed the mark and questioning why the company decided to redesign their logo in the first place.  

Cars, cars and more cars! Spot the vehicle nod in the Continental logo

The fourth largest tire manufacturer sure makes its mission clear in the logo, but although it may seem obvious, similarly to Staples, many customers seem to miss it. 

If you look closely, you’ll see that the C and O in the logo actually represent a tire. 

The company was actually founded in 1871 as a rubber manufacturer and over 20 years later, found its specialty creating tires. 

In 1898, Continental began the development and production of vehicle tires with plain tread, which was a great success for the brand. 

In 1904, the company became the very first tire to manufacture grooved vehicle tires. 

So it’s no wonder the logo gave a nod to a tire as it represents the company’s success.

Many years later, the company’s first emblems – the two horse label – was introduced. 

The company also created one more emblem, which is a red tap logo that can vbe found of the blue jeans.
