Sweet potato fries or tempura green beans
Outside of burgers, their tri tip steak sandwich and ahi tuna filet sandwich are pretty good
I'll add the Ahi Sandwich. A friend recommended it and I was highly skeptical. Turned out he was right. Very tasty. Also +1 to the Tempura Green Beans. Tried them for the 1st time last week. Went well with ranch dressing.

Tri-Tip Sandwich Santa Barbara Style is a frequent order as well. Love The Habit. Definitely one of my favorite FF places.

Tempura green beans belong with a sauce like BK zesty.

New deals are decent though.

Wendy’s app deals looking strong to quite strong for me today. I might go to two different Wendy’s to take full advantage. Just because I wouldn’t want to get caught walking into one and then having to go through the drive thru 2 min later...

The staff doesn't care. I did two deals back 2 back and they didn't even blink.

Wendy ain't paying them to deny us app deals!

Damn, got another $5 daves double combo available. When mcricks takes away, Wendy delivers

I stupidly had a Ricks bacon smokehouse with beef and one with grilled chicken. Theres something about that bacon spread that doesn't quite suit me. Hopefully within a couple hours I'll be able to enjoy my free Dave's Single!

Inspirational. I love both the Double Char Santa Barbara Style and the Tri Tip Sandwich, but I never thought to combine them. Based on this post, tonight I got a TTSSBS with white American cheese, and it was tasty AF!!!

Also got both tempura green beans and sweet potato fries, which were great as usual.

Wendy’s was excellent. Hot take: JBC > Double Stack

When I was driving through the States - I think it was Maine - I stopped at Wendy's cause I was wanting a jbc. Then I was like hmm what is this? Double stack? Sure I'll get one of those too. They don't have them in Canada.

I ate the double stack first and was quite surprised at how good it was. Then ate the jbc and wasn't surprised how good it was!

Moral of story is just get both (but I agree jbc > ds)

It's because Mayo on a burger is one of the most underrated condiments available. **** yellow mustard unless the meat came off of a grill & hot flame.

Yeah I said it.

Well it's completely true. If the whopper didn't have mayo bk wouldn't even exist

The juicier the burger, the less you need mayo. The JBC with mayo is a hall of fame fast food flavor profile, however the fat boys off the grill at home are always getting mustard, pickle, and onion.

Made a return visit to the world’s stickiest Wendy’s today for a free single and it was the most mediocre Wendyburger I have ever had. Just wasn’t good. Disappointed.

I still have $1 any sandwich and $1 McDouble for Rick's.

Today's Wendy's haul was pretty good: small chocolate frosty and Dave's single for two quarters and three pennies. BONUS: The girl serving me accidentally made a junior vanilla frosty, so she gave that to me too.

I was at Costco today, so of course I got the GOAT FF hot dog, which was great as always.

It was a dog and a slice kind of day, not a 2 dog day, and I would normally get the combo slice, but I noticed that the cheese slice was the same number of calories as the combo slice, which means that there must be waaay more cheese on the cheese slice. So I got it. And it was fan-****ing-tastic. More cheese, more sauce, and the cheese has tasty brown crispy (but not burnt) circles on top from the direct heat, that the cheese on the combo slice doesn't get, due to being buried under toppings.

The pepperoni slice has fewer calories than the cheese or combo, so there must be less cheese than the cheese slice, and the pepperoni doesn't even make up for it like the combo toppings do. They should add either more cheese or more pepperoni to the pep slice.


Sidenote: When I was putting condiments on my dog, I noticed a group of older Asians putting onions on first, and then the mustard, relish, etc on top of the onions. This is the 3rd time I've seen such a thing, and every time, it's been Asians doing it. WTF? I'm Asian-American, and I've never heard of such a thing. My cursory Google search didn't shed any light on the matter. Has anyone else seen or heard of such a thing?

I figured the cheese tasted better, but in getting the combo I'm getting my vegetables. Health pizza.

When I was in college I worked at a mom and pop pizza joint. Their signature thing was toppings first, then cover in cheese. A far superior way to make pizza. Part of our pay was a free small pizza every night. The ones I made for myself were the best I've ever had, verified by co-workers that I shared with.

I doubt it's an asian thing. I've always done it that way because the onions are unstable and tend to fall off. Gloopy stuff dumped on top tends to cement them down to the dog.

A bit of a heartbreaker, the Taco Bells near me discontinued the Nacho Fries again. I don't understand, that's an A1 menu item. They must know that, perhaps it's their plan to bring it back now and again to drum up renewed interest in their brand, like Mcdonald's with the McRib. On another note, the dollar menu at Taco Bell is so bad it tilts me, almost everything on it tastes yucky. Triple Layer Nachos are gross, the burritos are gross, the quesadillas are gross. It's like they made bad tasting stuff on purpose to steer you towards higher priced menu items, have to pay 60% more for regular chips and cheese which are definitely cheaper to produce than the triple layer nachos.

Try getting two beefy frito burritos with extra meat. Like 3.40 something.
