wait what what did he mean uh discontinued Wendy's has had some hits that didn't stay
on the charts here are 10 canceled Wendy's items that people still talk about I just think when
he's cool okay Wendy's salad bar rabbit salad salad bars used to be a lot more common than
they are now and Wendy's took advantage of the fact that people used to love them they were
ultimately removed though largely due to waney popularity and the fact that they were hard to
properly keep clean and maintain without a staff member standing next to them constantly to watch
them there was no telling how many people may have touched the items with their dirty hands
or contaminated them some other way while some people either did not care or did not think of
this when going to grab a salad at their favorite fast food place the majority of customers started
turning away from salad bars everywhere when they started really thinking about how unsanitary they
were you feel dirty I do the the way of the build your own style salad bar slowly died out
and instead people turn to favoring individual sized salads that were added to menus those who
never actually had the chance to experience the salad bar at Wendy's have likely at least heard
about it as for whatever reason the Wendy's salad bar is still talked about these days despite the
fact that they were really nothing special frescata sandwiches sandwiches excellent men
like sandwiches fads tend to come and go quite often over the years and companies do their best
to stay on top of current fads in order to try and capitalize off of them as much as possible before
they Fade Into Obscurity fast food restaurants are not immune to the Allure of trying to take
advantage of the specific things people are really into at that moment this led to the offering
of frescata sandwiches a deli style sandwich option that Wendy's offered for a short time
these sandwiches were made with fresh fresh baked bread and deli meats along with common deli style
toppings and they were attempting to compete with sandwich places such as Subway I'm better than you
unfortunately for Wendy's they just were not equipped to deal with this sort of food service
and the longer wait times for one of these specialty sandwiches caused their sales to
be low and they were taken off the menu pretty quickly after attempting to boost sales with
these frescata sandwiches Wendy's pulled them completely from restaurants after only a year
of sales most customers want something quick and hot when they go somewhere like Wendy's so
many were unhappy with the longer wait times for these specialty sandwiches at the end of the day
there really wasn't much to set these frescata sandwiches apart from their competitors and with
customer dissatisfaction due to the wait time the management team at Wendy's reluctantly made the
decision to pull them from the menu completely Wild Mountain chicken sandwich hey Dom it was
pretty wild enough mountains most items are removed from menus due to the fact that they're
either not selling well or because they are just simply too tedious for the restaurant staff to
make fake in a timely manner however some menu items are removed for reasons that are shrouded
in mystery never really fully explained by the company and not likely to ever return despite
demand for the item Wendy's Wild Mountain chicken sandwich was one such item that was removed for
seemingly no reason at all this chicken sandwich took spicy to a whole other level offering spicy
chicken with a Southwestern sauce and Colby cheese giving this sandwich quite a kick that
customers seem to love I love it I love love it unfortunately it was taken away from those
who loved it and Wendy's has yet to bring this particular menu item back even for a limited
time there's even a Facebook page dedicated to this specific canceled menu item which shows
that even now it has fans and Wendy's would likely do well if they brought this sandwich back while
this extra spicy chicken sandwich was not for everyone there were definitely a lot of people
who did really enjoy it and so far Wendy's has not been able to bring any items to their menu that is
quite satisfied those who crave the Wild Mountain chicken sandwich gouda bacon cheeseburger one
bacon cheeseburger extra greasy the gouda bacon cheeseburger was introduced as a limited time menu
item so it came as no surprise to customers that this burger was eventually taken off the menu but
that doesn't mean that it was not met with some outcry from those who had fallen in love with
it during the short time it was offered by Wendy's living up to its name this cheeseburger was pretty
unique in its offerings with sliced gouda cheese Swiss gruyere sauce garlic aioli and bacon all
sitting with a hamburger patty on a brioche bun it brought a combination of ingredients that was
different from most of its direct competitors I'm not like other guys this burger became an instant
hit and the company spent quite a bit of money on commercials to push it to its Target audiences
despite the fact that it sold well and the fact that they had spent so much on commercials Wendy's
did in fact take this item off the menu the outcry was loud despite the fact that people went into
this knowing it was only for a limited time but the fast food giant has yet to reinstate this item
to its menus it would not be a huge surprise if they did bring the gouda bacon cheeseburger back
at some point in the future as it was probably one of the most popular items Wendy has had on their
menus outside of their regular offerings Coffee Toffee Frosty Frosty nectar now please Wendy's
is known mainly for its hamburgers but the second most iconic menu item is probably their signature
Frosty a mix between soft serve ice cream and a milkshake normally you can only get this treat
in vanilla or chocolate flavors they have however offered a few different Limited Time flavors of
their Frosty over the years but few were half as beloved as the Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty
delivering exactly what the name suggests this was a vanilla Frosty with swirls of coffee and toffee
flavors and it was extremely popular on the menu bringing customers a new way to enjoy their Frosty
after years of only having two flavors to choose from how exciting despite the fact that this menu
item proved very popular among customers Wendy's only kept it on the menu for two years before it
was canceled and taken from those who enjoyed it so much this Frosty flavor was so popular that
there were even several different petitions asking Wendy's to bring it back but despite these pleas
from their customers the fast food restaurant has not brought this particular Frosty flavor
back while some may have forgotten about this particular item there are still many people
out there who can recall the Great Taste and would likely cheer this menu item's return unfortunately
there's only a small chance that Wendy's would choose to bring this specific item back out of all
their other discontinued items but we can always dream chicken caesar Pita a nice slices some pita
chips there are certain items that you wouldn't usually think of when thinking of the menu at
Wendy's and certainly a chicken Caesar Pita is one of those items despite the fact that it seems
like something that completely sticks out from the usual food that this fast food giant offers there
are people who still remember this rap while there were several of these Pita style wraps offered at
the same time the most popular one was by far Wendy's chicken caesar Pita these pitas were
introduced to the menu because Wendy's wanted to expand their regular fast food lunch options when
it seemed like everyone was offering the same hamburger and fries we completely different and
the customers at the time were calling for something different and so Wendy's came up
with these wraps they were Innovative for their time and customers enjoyed them greatly as a new
addition to their same old lunch routines while they were pretty popular during their time on the
menu fads changed and these wraps were removed as customers started turning their interest to
different types of lunch offerings instead Wendy's is nothing if not on top of Trends
and fads and they seem to know how to stay on top of their game by switching up menu items as
people's wants and needs change despite the fact that they have removed some items before their
time queso queso okay so who queso was a huge fad for a while and Wendy's took advantage of this
with not just one menu item but with three queso based menu options for customers to enjoy all of
the items included bacon and queso and they were a hamburger chicken sandwich and queso bacon topped
fries these were marketed as limited time items from the very beginning but that did not make it
any less disappointing when they were actually pulled from the menu fans of these three queso
items had high hopes that they would stick around longer due to how popular they were I was popular
to their disappointment the queso menu items only lasted as long as Wendy's had originally stated
they would and fans of these items have yet to see their favorite queso based fast food items make a
comeback though not all hope is lost as queso is making a bit of a comeback as a food fat so
there is a possibility that these three menu items could find their way back to your local Wendy's
for at least another limited time run you could also add your own queso to a Wendy's hamburger
though it will not taste quite the same as the actual item would have it's at least something
to tide you over until the restaurant decides to do the right thing pretzel bacon cheeseburger
one of the best things that a fast food restaurant can do is experiment a bit with their bread though
it can also go incredibly wrong and ideas contain the pretzel bacon cheeseburger was
not one of those times that fell flat on its face instead this particular menu item was extremely
popular among Wendy's customers the pretzel bun offering from Wendy's was available in a
few different options while it was on the market but the most popular was definitely the pretzel
bacon cheeseburger this menu item was just like their regular Burgers but instead of their classic
bread buns they used pretzel buns and people seem to love it yup people love it this menu
item was taken off the menu for a while before it was brought back due to popular demand this
reinstatement of the pretzel bacon cheeseburger did not last forever though and less than a year
later it was once again removed from the menu this item could easily come back though as it
was popular with customers and rather easy to make if Wendy's brought back the pretzel bacon
cheeseburger once they could bring it back a second time and hopefully if they do bring it
back again it will be for a longer period of time before it gets yanked out from under us
again bacon and blue Burger the blue form there are a few things out there that most people love
more than bacon and cheese and practically every fast food restaurant realized this a long time
ago and Wendy's was no different while Wendy's has offered plenty of different bacon and cheese
combinations on their menus over the years perhaps one of the strangest was the bacon and blue Burger
blue cheese is something that you would expect to find on the menu at some high-end fine dining
restaurant and not really something you would normally find at a fast food place such as Wendy's
because it would be an expectancy again Wendy's innovated the fast food hamburger space and
offered a burger that included this more premium cheese ingredient and bacon as well while you
would not likely think of getting blue cheese at a fast food place this menu item actually proved
to be one of Wendy's more popular menu items and critics even raved about it while it was
still on the menu though it's not likely to make a comeback anytime soon those who did get to try it
still talk about it with fondness spicy chicken nuggets kitchen nuggets chicken nuggets spicy
chicken nuggets are not a new menu item among fast food restaurants most if not all of the major fast
food players have offered some version of spicy chicken nuggets on their menu at some point
Wendy's has actually offered this item more than once including currently offering them in select
markets while they are still considered a limited time item even now they are The Limited Time menu
item that's the most likely to make a regular comeback as has been shown by past re-releases
first introduced by Wendy's in 2010 they remained on the menu at most restaurants for about seven
years before they began to disappear Please Don't call while they were removed from most of their
locations there were still select locations that offered them for a little while longer
eventually they were phased out completely though this only lasted a few years before the item was
once again brought back and while you may not be able to get these spicy chicken nuggets at every
single Wendy's restaurant a large majority of them are offering them again for a limited time only
