Wendy's is bringing back its fan-favorite Strawberry Frosty alongside a new menu item, the Loaded Nacho Cheeseburger, featuring a beef patty topped with cheese, roasted poblano queso, and tortilla strips.

KFC is rolling out its new "Ultimate BBQ Fried Chicken Sandwich," which includes a crispy chicken fillet topped with hickory smoked bacon, honey BBQ sauce, and pickles on a brioche bun. Shake Shack is introducing the "Veggie Shack," a plant-based burger made with mushrooms, sweet potatoes, and quinoa.
