Wendy’s Baconator Fries Review
Despite recent promotions, Wendy’s Baconator Fries are not a new item—they’ve been on the menu since 2015. Confusion comes from in-store advertising that makes them appear limited-time, even though only nearby burgers are seasonal.
What’s Included
These fries feature natural-cut, skin-on fries topped with warm cheese sauce, shredded cheddar cheese, and full strips of Applewood-smoked bacon. Surprisingly, there’s no beef, which raises questions about the “Baconator” name.
Taste & Texture
The fries taste like standard cheese fries with bacon. The cheese flavors are decent, and the bacon adds saltiness, but the bacon isn’t chopped—making it awkward to eat with a fork. Overall, the flavors are average and don’t live up to the Baconator branding.
Value for Money
Priced around $5.50, the portion is fair, but the execution feels lazy for the cost. It’s not bad, just not memorable.
Final Verdict
An average side dish that doesn’t deliver the full Baconator experience. Better described as bacon cheese fries than a true Baconator item.
Rating
5/10 – Average, not worth a repeat order.
