What’s in Wendy’s Chili Cheese Fries?

A medium serving (the standard size) weighs approximately 280 grams and provides about 520-530 calories, including 27-28 grams of fat (9-11 grams saturated), 53-58 grams of carbohydrates (6-7 grams fiber), 17-18 grams of protein, and 1,270-1,330 milligrams of sodium. Fries retain some crunchiness initially but over time become tender due to chili and cheese components; stew-like chili enhances this combination while rich, gooey cheese elements bring gooeyness that brings it all together nicely!

Wendy’s Chili Cheese Fries have long been a menu mainstay, often tied to special offers or promotions, typically costing between $2.49 and $2.49-$4.69 depending on size and location. Popular among those who appreciate loaded fry experiences, their high sodium levels and potential allergen cross-contact issues (milk, soy and wheat from shared fryers) should be taken into consideration before purchasing one as part of an order. These flavorful snacks make an ideal snack or sidekick to any burger order and deliver a flavorful kick with every forkful.
