That's not the case I've found at all. We tried the fries at Wendy's near
my parent's house and they were very good! But then we tried them at an
Everett location. They were greasy and limp. Their chili was horrid too.
Very watery with very little meat or beans in it. I've also found a big
difference between Dairy Queens. We went to one with my parents one day and
my dad warned us that we should not eat at the one near the high school. I
didn't know why. Now I do. The employees were rude, in a real hurry and
couldn't get an order right if you paid them. And the food was just no
good. That is a very busy location though and they just have people in and
out. I did once go to their drive thru just for an order of fries. I had
to sit there in my car for about 10 minutes. Knowing how busy they
are/were, I would have thought they would have had fries made up ahead of
time. Apparently not.
