As ex wendy's worker I can tell the meat is never frozen, they have new shipment of food every three days. Change the oil every two days The potatoes are wash everyday 3× a day The chilli made fresh daily so are the salads Everything is really fresh including the tomatoes onions and lettuce for the burgers
If only they would salt my fries correctly instead of them being Bland and scorching hot or just soggy and salty as my ass on a 10 game losing streak in overwatch
@@clbdyc no that’s but true. They fill up a special ice cream machine just for it. They don’t just store them. The only thing that’s stored is the bladders as they’re called that is either vanilla or chocolate flavoured. For the chilli tho that’s untrue at least at the store that I worked at and I’ve heard it’s the same at other places. They take the left over burgers from that night and dice them up and put them into the chilli for the meat part and the rest is in a bag. But I worked there probably 5 years ago now so they might’ve changed how they do things and every place is different but that’s my experience
I mean I have not had Wendy’s in a while but I tried Five Guys again recently and like every time the bun sucks and they never season the meat it seems. For me it tasted like an overpriced Quarter Pounder when it comes to meat
@@JohnJohn-yp7ex agreed What's interesting about their fries is they're making them fresh right in front of you. In theory, they should be great but I guess frozen & processed is the way to go.
@@johnnyc5422 i think five guys fries are made fresh as well Idk if it’s the peanut oil they use or maybe they double fry them or something. It’s cool in n out makes it in front of you but they are bland
Wendy’s food used to be so much better back in the day. Wendy’s had the best spicy chicken sandwich hands down back in the late 90s, early 2000s. Now it tastes like rubber, and the fries aren’t as good either 😢. It’s kinda hard to believe that there was a time I preferred Wendy’s over Chik fil a
I've always loved their chili sauce, wish they'd bottle it. I'm a little OCD with it - I pierce the packet with a syringe and suck it out, then inject the top bun with it. I do that cuz if you try to put it in the burger it just runs out.
@@jamarispinner5320 I mainly go for the Cajun fries (#2 favorite fries but it’s a hair difference from #1) and the hotdogs aren’t bad either tho they are too expensive🌚
Dave's Double is seriously the most underrated fast food burger in the game. It hits, go when it's busy and fresh. You'll never get another burger. It hits that hard. Also don't go to an Indian run Wendy's, they are one of the biggest franchisees, and any Indian run Wendy's usually sucks, find ones that aren't ran by Patels and you'll be good.
@@whyallthefuss201 Yeah if you see a Patel steer clear! Have you seen their street food videos from Mumbai?!? Dudes making soup with their hairy forearms all up in it. They are disgusting unhygienic people!
Then he shouldn't be in food reviews I like both of them but the majority people on this Earth can easily distinguish that taste apart as they taste so so different.
@@elderassassin9673 Five guys is a burger you can make at home, its not special. Yall dick ride the hell out of these places. His review is more honest than yourself.
Keep it real... call it like you see it!! I think what a lot of people fail to realize is that The quality from Location to location can be very noticeable.😏
They raised the $4 meal to 44 cents in some locations but it's not that much. But I still love the meal deal. It satisfied my lunch cravings and Wendy's always use fresh beef and not frozen. Meanwhile I forked over almost $20 at 5 Guys for burger, fries, and drink.
@@jobinkommet7516 you know what? Fuck you guys! For that price I rather go to the restaurant down the street for a bigger burger WITH fries and a free glass of water, plus they’ll make me feel fancy as fuck!
The best value for money in fast food is dave's double for $2 during march madness. Thats a double cheeseburger with all the toppings for $2 with app coupon. You can order it unlimited times and get 2 of those for $4 plus tax and thats enough protein for the average person.
Five guys is so expensive for no reason. I keep making the mistake and going back to validate my findings. Five guys is nothing special, especially for the price. You can almost have 2 in and out burgers for one 5 guys. That's not even close. Five guys is overpriced garbage.
I agree. The meat is fresher, the patties are bigger. What meat Wendy's serves now would've been considered Chili Meat back in the Mid 80's. Plus, Five Guys has better quality Fries fried in Peanut Oil, which I find tastier than vegetable oil anyday. Yeah, Wendy's is cheaper, but they're not bigger nor better. The overall quality has tanked considerably over time.
People are insane if they don't see the resemblance. I tried Five Guys for the first time a few months back and the burger tasted very similar to Wendy's.
Five guys just isn't worth the price for burgers and fries. Last time I went it $18 for just the burger and fries and no drink. No thanks. They are not THAT good.
Wendy's is super underrated. Their chicken sandwich is also very good, especially the spicy chicken sandwich. They also have one of the best breakfast menu as well. Well, at least to me.
Wendy’s actually has some of the best burger patties out of all of the fast food joints. They taste much more fresh than everywhere except for In n Out
I walked into a 5 Guys just to see what the hype was about, saw the prices on the overhead menu, and walked out again. Went to a restaurant and ate cheaper (and better).
I lived in Alexandria Virginia and Five Guys is the best tasting burger period. Moved to Southern California and truly appreciate In N Out from a value standpoint. When Five Guys started franchising out here, I was very excited. Sadly with inflation and food costs, not many locations left and not too many going to make it.
Wendy's Jr Bacon Cheeseburger and a tall Chocolate Frosty is great. The fact that the lettuce, tomatoes, onions are always fresh make the burger not to mention the crispy bacon push it right to the top.
I live in AZ and it used to be a treat to go to 5 guys. Something about it in the last 5-7 years changed. They used to have the best bacon for bacon burgers but now they use the pre cooked micrwavable crap. Meats gotten worse too
People just don’t understand the secret to Wendy’s. For whatever reason they never season their beef. Thats why the baconator is so good because you have natural salt from the bacon and mayo. But on a regular burger there’s legit nothing. Maybe it’s a worry that over seasoning their food will make it worse however if you put a pinch of salt on the burger patty it automatically becomes one of the greatest fast food burgers on the market. It taste just as good as any other burger for half the price
I'm not the only one!! My fiancé took me to 5 guys for the first time not that long ago and when asked how I felt about it I said it tasted exactly like Wendy's but 2× the price
I've had both Five Guys and Wendy's many times, and they are so insanely different. If you blindfolded me and tied my hands behind my back and plugged my ears and nose I would still be able to tell the difference from two 1 inch squares cut from the center of each burger with all toppings apart from meat and cheese removed.
Wendy’s $5 biggie bag might be the best value in the fast food industry.

You don't have to be poor to know Five Guys isn't worth the price. One of the tricks to doing well it to NOT overpay for stuff.

The only thing I think makes Five Guys worthwhile are their lightly seasoned Cajun fries.
To me the bun makes a huge difference. Five Guys’ bun is a lot better than Wendy’s. And yeah, I also prefer the thicker cut vegetables they use.
