Each 3-4 months, I attempt to dig via our freezer to make sure nothing will get misplaced to the dread “again of the freezer.” These ventures typically yield gems of forgotten meals, however as a rule, it’s random stuff previous me thought future me would need. Wendy’s latest providing, Queso Fries, appears like somebody in its analysis & improvement group discovered a container labeled “QUESO-2017” at the back of the freezer and determined to deliver it again to eating places.
In 2017, Wendy’s launched Bacon Queso Fries as a companion aspect to its Bacon Queso Burger. Six years later, we now have Queso Fries as a companion to the chain’s Loaded Nacho Cheeseburger. The quick meals aspect is a straightforward merchandise with three substances: fries, shredded cheddar cheese, and poblano queso.
As a fan of the Baconator Fries, I had extraordinarily excessive hopes. Sadly, they began out “fairly good,” however by the top of consuming them, they had been a stable “eh.” The primary chunk was an ideal little little bit of the whole lot: crispy fries, gooey queso, and barely melted shredded cheese. Because of the delicate however flavorful poblano peppers, the queso had a balanced spiciness.
The topping is a mix of assorted cheeses (American, cheddar, Monterey jack) that provide that savory cheese taste with out being too robust. The shredded cheddar was just about misplaced to the opposite flavors and textures. Wendy’s fries provide a very good starch base, however I might have favored to have had one thing else to provide extra texture (possibly the crunchy strips on Wendy’s Loaded Nacho Cheeseburger?). However I loved my preliminary few bites of the fries.
Nonetheless, time doesn’t stand nonetheless for any meals merchandise, and inside 5 minutes, the queso had cooled right into a thick, paste-like texture. Usually, I don’t have many points with meals texture, however one thing concerning the globbiness of the tacky topping made me extraordinarily tired of ending the merchandise. It had such a very good taste that this metamorphosis into chilly goo was a bummer. Fortunately, my husband had no problem with the oobleck queso, so he completed the fries.
Wendy’s isn’t afraid to deliver flavorful gadgets to its menu, and I respect that. The Queso Fries are flavorful with out being overly spicy. Whereas they had been initially fairly good, they cooled down right into a textural nightmare merchandise I couldn’t end. Should you strive them, simply be certain to have somebody round who will eat the remainder when the cheese sauce turns to gak.
