Debuting a new, semi-regular feature! I
tryout questionable food items so that you don’t have to in… Steveats. (Note:
Title developed in about 10 seconds of brainstorming.)
One “advantage”
of modern day fast food burgers is that you get a free salad with each one,
seemingly. By this, I mean that the workers pile way too god damn much lettuce
on the things.
The picture
on this entry for the Wendy’s Bacon Mozzarella burger are AFTER I already
picked off and ate a good amount of the lettuce. I’m not sure why this is the
new modus operandi for fast food burger prep – I think it makes the burger look
smaller, and it’s like they have something to hide.
And let me
be clear, for one of the first times for this feature, Wendy’s has nothing to
hide. The Bacon Mozzarella burger IS pretty tasty, with its thicker bun (garlic
Brioche, according to their
literature) and the feature ingredient of mozzarella. Both were pretty
tasty, especially as compared to other fast food efforts and their own gooey
and soggy Jalapneo Fresco chicken sandwich, a past
Steveats target.
Unasked for
salad aside, this is a tasty burger. Of course, it’s still horrible for you –
620 calories! – and overpriced at about $4.50. For that much, I’d rather have
the equivalent three McDoubles or four Rodeo burgers. But if you’re looking for
just one really good burger, by fast food standards, then the Wendy’s Bacon
Mozzarella burger is currently the reigning king. (Note: I’m only referring to
the Big Three national fast food chains here – Wendy’s, McDonald’s and BK.)
