Wendy's finally has a salad on the menu that actually is healthy and quite tasty. The Berry Almond Chicken Salad is everything that it says it is...Strawberries and blueberries on a bed of greens with a packet of sliced almonds and raspberry vinegrette dressing. Oh and did I mention shaved asiago cheese? Not nearly enough for this wench's taste, but oh it is so good.
Allow me to go through the pros and cons of this tasty offering.
It is available 3 ways.
- Half salad, full and with a pair 2.
- It is one of the tastiest healthy offerings on any fast food menu.
- It is available without chicken...but unless you are a vegetarian, why would you want it that way?
Now for the cons.
- The price tag. It is the highest priced salad at the chain. Priced at $6.49 for the full salad. I can go to a sit down restaraunt and get a salad with more bang for my buck.
- It still has 450 calories and 16 grams of fat...though I'm sure that's mostly the almonds.
This isn't a menu option for anyone on a budget. And well...the McDonald's Asian salad is much better for you and just as tasty. Still...for a treat during the summer months this is a good salad to grab..especially with the Wild Berry Iced Tea.
