... And it was possibly the least pleasant fast food burger that I have ever eaten. I was out of my normal neck of the woods, saw a Wendy's and decided I was hungry. Big mistake.
The first hint at the impending awfulness should have been that I received my Baconator 15 seconds after ordering at the drive through. Not a joke. I ordered, drove to the window (another sign I should have skipped Wendy's, NOBODY was there), gave her my card and she handed me my foods. I think they were laughing at my upcoming plight as I drove off.
Well, where do I begin? ...it was cold. Bad start. The "bacon" was indeed aplenty. I use the quotes because the stuff was textured like woodchips. I pulled a piece of the wooden bacon off and ate it by itself. It tasted of nothing. Just unpleasant, over-crunchy nothing. The cold meat, bun, and cheese combined with the bacon turned out to be completely bone dry despite the copious amounts of mayo they had slathered on it.
I come here to warn you. I am a simple man when it comes to my fast food. I usually love all forms of fast food. But I don't think Wendy's will ever be on my go to list again. For shame, Wendy's. Thumbs down.

They replaced the Big Bacon Classic with this. I was so pissed. The former had the right balance of veggies and meat and was awesome.

Seems like you had a bad one. Can't imagine that's their usual fare.
Also mayo on a burger? Yuck.

Should've stuck with the spicy chicken sandwich. Can't ever go wrong with one.

In my experience with Wendy's, they're really iffy on their food to the point that it's a 50/50 chance that you'll actually get something hot. I like the Baconator, but I've also had one pretty similar to what you're describing and yeah, it's bad when it's cold.

Wendys is weird in that it'll either be above average for fast food, or just awful. It seems less standardized than, say, McDonalds or something.

I hate that like no fast food place uses Miracle Whip on burgers instead of mayo...

Sorry about your bad experience. I tried the double baconator from Wendy's and I liked it. I used to have one every week for lunch. But then one night I got sick after I had one for lunch that day. I was throwing up all night. I was grossed out and never touched a double baconator for a year. I decided to give it another chance but I could barely eat half of it. Just brought back bad memories.

While Wendys have some shitty burgers and french fries that for some reason are only hot for 30 seconds, they do have the best fast food chicken sandwich.

Wendy's burgers are the best burgers in the regular fast food category IMHO
Burger King is a pretty close second.

That happened to me with the Sourdough Jack when I was a youngster. It's been probably 15 years, and I still refuse to eat one of those again! |

I ate one of those in 2002. Haven't had need of food ever since. --------------------- While Wendys have some shitty burgers and french fries that for some reason are only hot for 30 seconds, they do have the best fast food chicken sandwich. Nah, Hardees chicken sandwiches are miles better. I'll just assume neither of you have a Chick-Fil-A in your city. |

Nah, Hardees chicken sandwiches are miles better. I don't quite agree, but I do think both of them are near the top of the heap. Chik-Fil-A's good, but yeah, I don't eat there. |
