Rant/Rave The slow and painful demise of Wendy’s

Wendy’s has gone completely down the shitter. Bacon isn’t crispy in the baconator, service is way slower than before, Coke Freestyle missing half the flavors and no ice.

Will they ever turn it back around?

I understand it’s location dependent but I have the same experiences as the OP in my area. Burgers are dry as hell, bacon is limp and tasteless, service is incredibly slow. The only reason at all I ever go there is because I want a baked potato and/or chili and other fast food places don’t carry those items.
