Wendy’s has been pumping the new bacon pretty hard on the radio around here. Based on the training bulletin I saw behind the counter, I think Phoenix is a test market for a new bacon strategy. Applewood Smoked Bacon, no less.

Since we happened to be up early, you know, to take The Wife® to Urgent Care for the cough that just won’t quit, we swung by Wendy’s.

I had a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit. Overall it was OK, but not great. On par with the McDonald’s biscuit, I suppose. But the new bacon… meh. I really couldn’t tell the difference. Plus, you only got one piece that was ripped in half. LAME.

So don’t go out of your way to try it. You probably won’t notice.
