      You can cure that mental problem ( I use that term specifically) by changing your eating habits. For example just eat meat for 3 days. no seasonings and then on day 4 add a little salt.. WOW! salty!!!!!!!!
      you think it tastes good but really when you eat clean it tastes like the sh1t it is!

    I tried a Wendy's a few months ago when I was in London. It was okay, but nothing to write to home about. Did however have one in my local high street in the late 90s, when I was in my teens. My brother and I loved the milkshakes! They were quite runny but, as Danny say, "full of flavour"!

    Hi Danny. Another great video. I used to live in Birmingham and in fact you visited a restaurant 1/2 a mile from our house at Munchbox, Kingstanding. But last year my American wife and I moved to Indianapolis and so Wendy's is about every half a mile on the various roads by our house. Most fast food here is done as drive through, and our local is open to late. We love the Baconator and have to say that the UK one looked quite small compared to the monster we get but I was surprised by how cheap your meal was. Its REALLY expensive over here. The selection is slightly different for breakfasts here. However most of it looked the same on the screen you were using. I have to say I really love Wendys and its far better than McD's and to some extent Burger King. We have SO many to choose from that next time you are in the US you should do a single "street" and see how many kinds of food you can try!

    Wendy's fries and burgers are usually good, the chicken is decent but your's looked thinner, The chicken burger prices seemed a bit higher, My wife always gets a cup of Chili on the side and loves it, Ours until recent was only 99 cents, so £4 looks spendy to us...
    I dislike the screen ordering as everyone touches them then uses those fingers to eat with, not a good idea in this day and age, I wonder how these places can think that's OK, I order from a person, if its screen only I leave.

    I worked at a Wendys in the early 80s when I was in uni. Wendy's was a franchise of Whitbreads and every now and again, senior people from the States would come over to check the standards in each store - they were all stereotypical senior execs with crew cuts and moustaches. Regardless of what you think of fast food, standards were kept really high. The food was prepped fresh everyday - all salad bar items, burgers were pressed, bacon cooked on the grill and buns put into warmers. The square burgers come out of the pressing machine that shape and were cooked pretty much fresh to order on a cast-oron grill. I can still remember the order for assembling a burger; mayo on the bottom bun, lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup on the top bun and mustard on the burger! It's how I do them still. Danny's right about the chilli which is made from overcooked burgers which are recooked into the chilli (which really makes sense). Profit was always an issue for Whitbreads and the food costs were pretty high - I think staff were literally eating the profits. Had a great time working there!

      @sandrojones8068 I think so but I don't remember seeing fries covered in chili on the menue. Seems like might be more of a UK thing. When I was still a teenager I worked at a Wendys. What Danny said about the chili being made from ground up old burgers is very true.

    We've had it back in London for a while, and as someone with American partner so had it a lot in the states I was very excited. I think it fills that gap that Burger King used to be before they only appeared at train stations and was expensively disaspointing, not quite as expensive as the proper burger casual restaurants like GBK or even five guys but a tad better than McDonalds and more fill.

    The Baconator is my go to burger since Wendy's opened in a town near me. The Frosty® is far superior to a McDonald's milkshake. And I've never known the Frosty® machine to break down!! Wimpy is still around. If you look hard enough you'll find one.

    Jolibee! It is right next to the Wendy's! You MUST try that. It is the Philippines number one favorite takeaway. They are known for their chicken.
    In the Philippines they serve it with rice and gravy. Not sure if they do that outside of the islands. Check out their deserts too. They have mango apple pie. I am curious what it would be like there.
    Take care and love the videos!
    Jolibee is . Please please ❤️

    "Infamous?" is it infamous? The Wendy's in Lincoln had good experiences there. Delivered completely fresh hot, well served, and even very politely by whoever was serving "Sorry about the wait" like, thanks but this was quicker than anything I've had from BK or KFC or any other chain.

      Infamous to me is that Wendy's got gutted by a TV programme where their freezers filled with cancerous horse carcasses were featured. I seem to be the only person who remembers this. The same team went on to try & bring down Walls' sausages though I can't recall the precise reason.

    Is Danny reviewing franchised chains now? This week Wendy's next week McDonald's 😝 If this is a new theme, then try to find a Wimpy. There are only 62 Wimpy franchisees left in the UK and I think most of them are down south; I have 3 of them within a short (10 to 15 minutes) driving distance.
    I think we have all fallen victim to these mass produce chains and I must admit, those burgers made me feel seriously damn hungry.
