FAST FOOD NEWS: Wendy’s Crispy Chicken BLT

Wendy s Crispy Chicken BLT

Last October, Wendy’s tested a couple of new menu items — the Bacon Mozzarella Cheeseburger and Crispy Chicken BLT. While the cheeseburger hasn’t been rolled out across the country, the Crispy Chicken BLT has gone national.

The latest addition to Wendy’s 4 for $4 Menu comes with a breaded chicken patty, two slices of Applewood-smoked bacon, American cheese, mayonnaise, a leaf of lettuce, and a tomato slice.

The chicken sandwich has 440 calories, 24 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 950 milligrams of sodium, 37 grams of carbohydrates, and 20 grams of protein.

If you’ve tried it, let us know what you think of it in the comments.

Jack in the Box’s breakfast sandwiches and burritos come with either bacon, sausage, ham, or a combination of them. But Jack’s latest breakfast menu item, the Triple Cheese & Hash Brown Breakfast Burrito, has none of them.

The breakfast burrito has 842 calories, 454 calories from fat, 50 grams of fat, 17 grams of saturated fat, 1 gram of trans fat, 371 milligrams of cholesterol, 1710 milligrams of sodium, 473 milligrams of potassium, 68 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, 4 grams of sugar, 31 grams of protein.
