Fast-food giant Wendy’s has recently made waves with the introduction of upgraded chicken tenders and brand-new sauces. The popular chain has announced the launch of its revamped Chicken Tenders, also known as Tendys, which officially debuted on Tuesday, September 30. This new offering is now a core menu item, available in packs of three or four tenders and accompanied by a choice of two sauces. Among the six new sauce options are Wendy’s Signature, Sweet Chili, Scorchin’ Hot, Creamy Ranch, Honey BBQ, and Honey Mustard.
The crispy white meat Chicken Tenders from Wendy’s have been coated in a seasoned breading featuring garlic and hints of spice. Originally trialed in select locations earlier this year, these tenders are now widely available nationwide following their official launch. While this isn’t the first time Wendy’s has offered tenders on its menu, with previous appearances in 2007, 2017, and 2019, the latest iteration promises a fresh take with enhanced flavours and textures.
In addition to the revamped tenders, Wendy’s has also levelled up its sauce game, with larger size portions designed for “maximum dunkability.” The six new sauces have replaced the previous condiment options, offering customers a new and improved dipping experience. The sauces available include Wendy’s Signature, Sweet Chili, Scorchin’ Hot, Creamy Ranch, Honey BBQ, and Honey Mustard, offering a variety of flavour profiles to complement the chicken tenders.
Wendy’s move to upgrade its Chicken Tenders aligns with the competitive landscape in the fast-food industry, as other major players like McDonald’s have also introduced their own versions of chicken tenders. McDonald’s McCrispy Strips, launched earlier this year, feature white meat chicken coated in a crispy, black pepper-flavoured breading. The introduction of these tenders has added another dimension to the ongoing battle for market dominance in the chicken tender category.
Meanwhile, in a separate development, McDonald’s has announced the return of its popular Monopoly Game after a nine-year hiatus, slated to begin on Monday, October 6. The updated digital version of the nostalgic game offers customers the chance to win prizes ranging from free food items to a $1 million cash prize. By purchasing eligible menu items and registering for the game through the chain’s app, customers can participate in this engaging promotional event.
As Wendy’s and McDonald’s continue to innovate and introduce new offerings to their menus, customers can look forward to an enhanced dining experience with a wider range of choices. Whether it’s indulging in crispy Chicken Tenders with delicious sauces or participating in interactive games for exciting prizes, both fast-food chains are raising the bar to meet the evolving preferences of their patrons. Stay tuned for more updates and promotions from these industry giants as they strive to deliver quality food and engaging experiences to consumers worldwide.
