Wendy’s Replaces Grilled Chicken Sandwich With New Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap In Select Markets

14

Wendy’s has replaced its long-running fan-favorite Grilled Chicken Sandwich with a new Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap at most locations in the Dublin, Ohio area.

After first spotting the changes on the fast-food chain’s website, I immediately jumped on Reddit to try to see if I could find out what in the world was going on.

As as luck would have it, there it was, leaked internal company documents revealing all the upcoming menu changes, including the discontinuation of the brand’s Grilled Chicken Sandwiches, Southwest Avocado Salad and Sunburst Melon Natural Lemonade, as well as the addition of new, and hopefully soon-to-be guest-favorites like the Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap, Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad, and Blueberry Pomegranate Lemonade.

The chicken items will be made with the brand’s new fully cooked, pre-diced grilled chicken pieces and are expected to start rolling out, along with the new Blueberry Pomegranate Lemonade, on March 28, 2023.

The Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap itself will feature all-white meat grilled chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, and ranch sauce wrapped in a warm flour tortilla for a suggested price of $5.99 (may vary).

Additionally, on March 6, 2023, Wendy’s will launch the next phase of “Meal Deal Evolution,” which includes entrée changes to the current $5 Biggie Bag and the debut of the new $6 Biggie Bag.

Here’s a closer a look at the brand’s new Meal Deals:

  • New $6 Biggie Bag Meal Deal: Crispy Chicken BLT or Bacon Double Stack, plus 4-piece Nuggets (Crispy or Spicy), Jr. Fry and a small drink.
  • $5 Biggie Bag Meal Deal: JBC, Double Stack or Crispy Chicken Sandwich, plus 4-piece Nuggets (Crispy or Spicy), Jr. Fry and a small drink.
  • 4 for $4 Meal Deal: Markets will have the option to remove the 4 for $4 from menus, but must offer the meal deal upon request at the $4 price point.

  1. Same here. They shouldn’t have gotten rid of the the grilled chicken sandwich. I got the wrap and it wasn’t good. Chicken was terribly dry.

  2. I’ve been going to Wendy’s for years because of their delicious grilled chicken sandwich. Won’t be going back as I can make a healthier chicken wrap at home! :/

  3. The wrap is almost double the fat as the sandwich, and they already have at least one sandwich with the chicken+ranch flavor combination. One more fast food restaurant that doesn’t have a single menu item I can justify eating… Wendy’s is getting mighty boring.

  4. Surprised to find elimination of the only menu item family and I ate- the grilled chicken sandwich. No more business for us .

  5. Unfortunately surprised with this at the drive thru today. I’m on Weight Watchers, and have been for a year. I’m on the road a lot for work and Wendy’s was a go-to for the grilled chicken sandwich, which was only 6 points. I get 43 per day, so this was great! Now, this wrap is 12 points. Smh. All the other fast food places are almost inedible on my plan points wise. Not happy.

    • I’m with you. Hate that now Wendy’s has gotten rid of their healthier option. None of these places care about the amount of unhealthy food they offer.

  6. I am trying to lose weight. So I go there for the grilled chicken sandwich at 321 calories and they replace it with a grilled chicken wrap with 410. Whhhhhy?

  7. I tried the chicken wrap and really liked it, but it’s high in fat, and astronomically HIGH in sodium–1330 mg! I don’t understand that and probably won’t get it again.

  8. I always bought the delicious grilled chicken sandwich. When I found out Wendys replaced the Grilled Chicken sandwich with a wrap, I went to Chick-fil-a, it was just as good and CHEAPER. Go Wrap, Go Broke.

  9. SAME -Bring the grilled chicken back… or wont be coming back.
    ALL those fried options …noooooooooooooooooo make you sick
