\"Wendy's<\/a><\/p>\n

Wendy’s is testing two spicy menu items — Ghost Pepper Fries and the Jalape\u00f1o Fresco Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Both feature jalape\u00f1os and a Ghost Pepper sauce, and the chicken sandwich has a spicy chicken fillet. Impulsive Buy contributor Adam snapped the photo above from a Wendy’s location in Maryland. The chain is also testing the products <\/a>in Michigan. <\/p>\n

With the 1-2 punch of jalape\u00f1os and Ghost Pepper sauce, I wonder if Frosty sales will increase at the locations where they’re testing the two menu items.<\/p>\n
