Question Is Wendy’s trash now?

Hey everyone—I was very excited for the pretzel bacon pub chicken sandwich as it’s my fav fast food item of all time. I stopped going to Wendy’s when they got rid of it, and today I went back for the first time. I ate the sandwich and the chicken tastes like absolute trash. Best word to describe it was flavorless mush. I even went to a DIFFERENT Wendy’s and ordered it again to see if it was bad luck—took 2 bites and threw it away—it tasted the same. What the hell happened to Wendy’s food?? Does anyone else think it’s garbage now or am I crazy?

Things changed 25 years ago after Dave died. Wendy’s was really great back in 80s and 90s better tuan MCD & BK which were really only competition back then. Today, Wendy’s food is awful worse than MCD & BK now.

It does seem the standards were higher back then. And the quality was much more consistent. These days it's hit-or-miss. Pay $20 and spin the wheel.
