Title: JalapeÃ±o Salad
Post by: Perd Hapley on April 03, 2021, 09:15:33 AM: Wendy's now offers a "JalapeÃ±o Popper Salad." Sadly, there are no actual, deep-fried, cheese-filled JalapeÃ±os in or with the salad. Happily, there are slices of uncooked JalapeÃ±o. Not as hot and flavorful as a freshly-sliced pepper, but not bad. And diced bacon and fried chicken.

Recommend.

What makes it qualify as a proper popper-salad?

Pretty much nothing.

What's On It

Made fresh daily with Wendy’s signature lettuce blend, spicy, crispy chicken breast, diced tomatoes, shredded pepper jack cheese, applewood smoked bacon, and, of course, jalapeÃ±os, all topped with a crispy jalapeÃ±o & cheddar crouton mix and jalapeÃ±o ranch. If you’re reading this, you must like jalapeÃ±os so, yes, this is the one you should get. Promise.

People like spicy stuff? Also, they introduce new menu items to provoke interest.

If you really want something from a (quasi)fast food place that you will feel the next morning try the Burning Love burger from Red Robin. They even garnish with a whole jalapeno for your dining pleasure.

Meh, tried it and found it to be mild. I actually surprise the Mexicans at my favorite Mexican restaurant at how hot I like food. Only thing that really lights me up are some Ethiopian dishes.

It's easier and cheaper just add heat/spicey to their shitty food than it is to make it actually taste good.

That makes sense.
