Earl Eats Wendy's Four for $4 - A Review

I don't often go to Wendy's. During the day I am not often out eating fast food lunches, and for dinner, we don't eat much fast food, and my wife (a.k.a. "Turkey") doesn't much care for Wendy's. But today I was on a shopping marathon and passed a Wendy's and thought I would try their Four for $4 offering. 

I have always felt that Wendy's tries to be on the higher end of fast food, and they do have some elaborate menu offerings, but today I was going for the value. And how often do I get to post Four 3 ways! I chose their Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger for my 444. It comes with a small fry, small drink and 4 piece chicken nugget. 

This is more like what mine looked like. Flatter
and a paper cup rather than a Coke® glass.

I find Wendy's nuggets to be better than some, but I am not a nugget fan. They have good fries, although I am not a frequent fry eater and they didn't offer fry sauce, which is a requirement for the best fries. 

Their Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger is the best of the value burgers and includes a tomato slice and lettuce that is NOT shredded, the only way lettuce should be included on a burger. For review purposes, I try not to make requests so my burger will be like the burger you have there.

Conclusion

For $4, this 4 for $4 is good! A bacon cheeseburger with beef that has never been frozen, a drink, fries and chicken nuggets. This is exactly as advertised (except for the pictures). I look at it this way, 2 dollars for the burger, and one dollar each for the nuggets and fries. I think the drink is more an enticement, because you can get a LARGE drink anywhere for a buck and this is a small drink. The star of the meal is the burger which is satisfying, and better than most value burgers. The nuggets and fries round it out and make it feel like a meal. The lettuce and the tomato are much better than other fast food places and add a fresh element.  It is a good value and a good option for a fast food meal.
