Now that I know it&#8217;s National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month, I regret all the McDonald&#8217;s and Burger King food I ate this month. <\/p>\n<p>Oh, but the month isn&#8217;t over. I can still binge on fruits and vegetables. Farmer&#8217;s market, here I come! <\/p>\n<p>Wendy&#8217;s is offering the gift cards so that the winners can celebrate a belated National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month by trying their Berry Almond Chicken Salad. I say belated because it&#8217;s almost the end of the month and the winners won&#8217;t be getting their gift cards until July. Jasper reviewed the salad last year <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2011\/06\/07\/review-wendys-berry-almond-chicken-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">and enjoyed it<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>However, if you don&#8217;t want to celebrate National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month, you can hold on to the card until September and can celebrate National Chicken Month, if the Berry Almond Chicken Salad is still available. Or, if you can&#8217;t wait that long, you could use the gift card on July 13 to celebrate National French Fry day.<\/p>\n<p><b>To enter the Happy Belated National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month prize drawing, leave a comment with THIS post.
