Reviewers on Wendy's Baconator

★★★★American maximalism done right. Veggies are for europeans, we garnish meat with more meat in "murica. Only deducting points because I feel like a piece of shit after I eat it. Lincoln Wang
★★★★Probably one of the best bang for your bucks you can get all things considered. Lots of bacon. Always pretty consistent across locations. I like the smaller one sometimes when I’m not as hungry. ChainGang01
