Wendy's - Cheeseburger Salad

I added a new item to Wendy's menu today. I went to the drive up and asked for a side salad with a cheeseburger on top. I think they should put this on their menu. It was good. Not quite as a good as a home made cheesburger but it satisfied me.

LOL! I'm surprised they actually did that for you. Good for them for being good sports.

Now that is a good idea!!!! I went to Mcdonald's today and got a side salad and two double cheeseburgers but I didn't think to have them serve it the way you asked. It sounds delicious!!!

Thats nice that they arranged that for you!

I do this all the time, but I actually like doing it myself because I'd rather have the bun absorb some of the burger grease...this is just my personal preference!

Sometimes when I'm eating out, I'll get a Big Mac salad, which is basically a salad (lettuce) with a cheeseburger on top, dill pickles, minced or finely chopped onion and some 1000 Island dressing. Just like a Big Mac without the bun and salt.

I do this alot..Side Salad, ranch dressing..the McDouble is a little cheaper and only one piece of cheese..I just toss the bun cuz sometimes it is not worth
explaining that you don't want one.

I do the same thing, the bread doesn't stick to the hamburger if you eat it right away or soon after you buy it so that is good. I like getting the McDouble for $1.00 with the side salad, it is a cheap meal and very filling.

Yes, I didn't know if they would do it or not so I just asked. I didn't get the bun because the cheese would stick to it. This was at the take-out window. The one I went to yesterday was in Williamsport.

Our Wendy's would do that! AND...Burger King is REALLY great with remembering a fork for meals without bread. It's a lowcarber's world yanno.
