The fast food restaurant industry is a good place for dividend investors to look for additions to their portfolios. These are typically mature, stable businesses with resilient revenue and earnings. Restaurants like Wendy's and Burger King are relatively inexpensive options, so they are fairly defensive plays when it comes to a recessionary environment.
