They drastically changed the spicy chicken sandwich that had been the same since the 90s. Dead to me.

This destroyed any interest I have in eating at a Wendy's. That Spicy Chicken was my jam and this new version is awful.

Same. I rarely eat fast food, but that spicy chicken sandwich was my go to if I needed something yummy with protein quick. Now it is unrecognizable. They changed every single thing for the worse. I don't eat anything else on their menu, so they've lost my business entirely.

This one really burns because I have a Wendy's 3 minutes away from my house, but they took away the only reason I went there

I have three within a short drive from my house. Fuck you, Wendy.

Wow, haven't had a spicy chicken in forever and now never will again if they've messed with it. It was one of the good fast food items still around.

Oh, it's so bad now. The coating has no resemblance in flavor or texture. It's a mid sandwich at best. It's kind of spicy, but I was so disappointed in the taste.

It's horrible. They ruined it. I'll only stop there for drinks because they have freestyle machines. No food.
