It’s only been on the menu for a month, but this burger is on track to become Wendy’s best-selling new product in a decade. Wendy’s is outperforming McDonald’s and Yum Brands, which helps support Grub’s belief that it’s a good move for these fast-food companies to stop pretending to sell healthy food. Pretzel buns and Pop-Tart ice-cream sandwiches are certainly more fun than the McWrap. [Earlier, NYP]
