News: Wendy's - Berry Almond Chicken Salad Returns

Wendy's returns their Berry Almond Chicken Salad for a limited-time this summer. It features a mix of summer-time produce including blueberries, strawberries atop a bed of 11 kinds of field greens. In addition to the fruits and veggies, the Berry Almond Chicken Salad also includes a grilled chicken breast, shredded Asiago cheese, and slivers of roasted almonds with sea salt.

Dressing for the salad is provided on the side and is a fat-free raspberry vinaigrette made with raspberries, acai juice, shallots, and balsamic vinegar.

Like most Wendy's salads, the Berry Almond Chicken Salad is available in entree or half-size portions.

I reviewed the Berry Almond Chicken Salad last year and you can check it out here.

  2. I had the new berry almond chicken salad which tasted a little funny, but still good, just as soon as I finished it my stomach began hurting and I had the most horrific incident of diarrhea in my life!  I had to leave work and go home to change and then go to the Dr.  I was told that I had ingested some type of bacteria and would continue to have pain and diarrhea for two days or so.  If it continues for more than 2 days, I should go back and get antibiotics for it.  To think, I could have had a burger at Burger King! Never again Wendy's.

  8. I don't know what company sells almonds to Wendy's, but I believe Marzetti makes most of their salad dressings. They might not offer retail versions of the Wendy's version though.
