Review: Wendy's - Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Wendy's Spicy Chicken Nuggets are mechanically separated white meat chunks battered, breaded, and seasoned with spices and peppers.

The breading is a little bit different from Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich which has a texture that's more like crisp, fried chicken.  The Spicy Chicken Nuggets, on the other hand, are more bread crumb-like.  The resultant texture feels and tastes a bit dry.

Taste-wise, they have a good kick to them with a nice, lasting burn but are just a tad bit salty.  Wendy's Spicy Chicken Nuggets go well with the ranch sauce which soothes the spicy burn.

They are a good value at five nuggets for 99 cents especially since it's the normal Super Value Menu price whereas McDonald's Chicken McNuggets only sometimes have a promotional price of 4 for a buck.  I'd recommend them if you like spicy foods for a snack.

  2. I'd say it's a nice, lasting burn but it's not going to make you go running for water.

  3. Very interesting that the texture is not exactly the same as the spicy chicken sandwich. I'm surprised they didn't shoot for that as a goal, as surely that's what customers will expect.

  4. Yeah, I think so too but it is the same bread-y texture as their regular chicken nuggets. It might be a cost issue though.

  6. These are my favorite fast food nuggets ever. ! Chick fil a sucks, they're nuggets would be better if they breaded them more and gave them more of a crunch, and less of a soggy taste. That's what I love about the wendys spicy nuggets--- crunchy and tastey.
