Fast food restaurants aren't usually associated with having fresh ingredients, but the Wendy's Fresh Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich and Salad aim to end this preconception.
The limited-edition Fresh Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich and Fresh Mozzarella Chicken Salad are expected to launch in early April, and offer an artisan-inspired flavor experience for guests.
Aside from offering the fresh mozzarella ingredient, the chicken sandwich will also be topped with balsamic diced tomatoes that will be prepared fresh in the restaurants twice a day. This comes as an unexpected yet competitive move by the brand in order to satisfy consumers who are looking for healthier, fresher choices for lunch and dinner that are convenient to pick up.
The Wendy's Fresh Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich and Salad are set to only be available for a limited-time.
