FAST FOOD NEWS: Wendy’s Bacon Sriracha Fries

Wendy s Bacon Sriracha Fries

Back in March, we posted a photo of two spicy test items from Wendy’s — the Spicy Sriracha Chicken and Bacon Sriracha Fries. Well, they are testing no longer. The Bacon Sriracha Fries are available for a limited time at a suggested retail price of $1.99.

The side dish features a small serving of Wendy’s fries topped with shredded cheddar cheese, chopped Applewood-smoked bacon, cheddar cheese sauce, and a sriracha aioli.

A serving has 600 calories, 39 grams of fat, 11 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 45 milligrams of cholesterol, 1110 milligrams of sodium, 47 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, and 14 grams of protein.

It amazes me what ends up being popular. I thought Oscar Mayer’s P3 Portable Protein Packs were a silly way for Oscar Mayer to sell cheese and their meats, but now there are several brands of these mini snack trays. (Spotted by Rachel C at Smiths.)

Ice Chips (Pineapple Coconut, Mango, and Mandarin Orange)
