Yep, they screwed up royally with the sweet pickles, and they gave the bun an odd butter flavor too. It amazes me because the Wendy burger was a classic design and flat out delicious when well executed. I’m thinking that Wendys corporate must have gotten hold of the same consultant that came up with the BK burger at Krystals a few years back. It was exactly the same, and lame for the same reasons. It’s like the sweet pickle, buttered bun, fancy lettuce, red onions thing is some guy’s vision of how a burger should be. He apparently has excellent Power Point chops because he’s been able to sell it to two big chains. Dave Thomas probably would have thrown him out on his ear.

My Dad was so funny. He passed away last year, but the months prior to his passing he had to have his McDonald’s cheeseburger and a small fries for lunch. Not the big cheeseburger... the small one, kid’s meal size. He and his wife would get one each and a small fries. He loved getting his lunch for a couple of bucks. When I would take him to the doctor and try to swing by a BK on the way home, he would say.... no... go for the Mickey D.

You and I are apparently the only 1s here who like Wendy’s as it was.

Meanwhile, most of the joints mentioned here I’ve never even heard of!
