Wendy’s Frosty Flavors To Change For The Holidays
Be on the lookout for Wendy’s Frosty to change flavors again for the holiday season. According to a CNN.com story, the fast food chain brings a holiday themed Frosty to it’s menu for the first time. This flavor is very appropriately Peppermint. Soon, customers can select the Peppermint Frosty. However, any time a new flavor emerges, one has to go. And, this time the recently introduced Strawberry Frosty will take a break to make way for Peppermint. Back in the summer, Strawberry replaced Vanilla. It’s worth noting the new holiday Frosty flavor is only the third new flavor to hit the U.S. in the past 16 years. Furthermore, the company says strawberry’s success is what pushed the addition of a new one.
But, if you’re a vanilla fan, the bad news is it won’t be returning before the end of the year. Apparently, chocolate is the main stay on the Wendy’s Frosty menu. Of course, I’m wondering what mixing chocolate and peppermint would be like. Honestly, that sounds pretty amazing to me. Anyway, following other fast food establishments’ success with holiday themed items, it’s no surprise Wendy’s also mixes things up this time of year. Starbucks, Dunkin’ and McDonald’s all offer limited seasonal items. So, when Wendy’s Frosty flavors change, I’m there!
