I think that still tallies with what I heard, Jessica-- could mean "first thing" in the morning, they have to do the prep for it, or "first thing" meaning that it was a top priority to get a similar dressing back on the menu since it was a popular salad-and-dressing combo (seemingly the most popular of the new menu items).

Meaning that it was a high priority-- and that employees now have work to do to portion it ("prepare" it) for individual consumer sale.

hm that's interesting because during the conversation (in which I had to really explain slowly that I only wanted to make sure there was no cc but that I was not actually ordering the salad) I could have sworn she mentioned people 'getting it ready first thing'.

What I learned, shooting the breeze as I waited to grab our (to go) order:

Yes, they now have the dressing again-- I commented that that was quick, no peanut in it now, I guess-- Yes, that's correct, and it's nice that they have the replacement out already, but it wasn't possible to get it in individual portions, so it comes in a BIG BAG of dressing, and the store employees have to portion it into solo cups at the start of the day. 

I expressed appreciation for the effort to keep peanut off the menu.

(Yeah, not thrilled with the cashew thing either, but at least that is a solid and not a liquid/gel/emulsion.  )

Went to Wendy's on Friday and they said they still have the dressing. I'm wondering now if it is the reformulated kind because it sounds like it's been replaced company-wide. I'll have to call and ask for a manager.

They reportedly have the replacement spicy dressing in now (sans peanut) but they are putting it INTO cups since it isn't individually prepacked yet--

honestly, nice save for them.  I thanked the manager for their trouble and reassured them that it matters when I was in last week. :)

We've been doing our weekly shake there for a couple of weeks now. *knock on wood* If only I can get DS1 to switch to their burgers.

Went back to our local Wendy's today. No dressing there took DS1 for a Frosty.

Thinking about where I wanted to pull off for lunch today, I decided that I wanted to support Wendy's, so that is where I stopped, even though I could have anywhere (I have no real dietary restrictions, and I was so one).

Behold the power of the Food Allergy community:

We have pulled the Asian Salad Dressing due to the peanuts in it.  It will be out in a few weeks without the peanuts in it.  So it is safe now to go to Wendy's since they threw away all the packets of dressing that they had in the stores.
If I can help you at any time please let me know.
Have a great weekend.

We only ever do the drive through at our local one, generally, if we have been at a pool that is nearby.  So, kids are wet, in bathing suits.  never go inside.  The inside service is really, really slow at ours too.  Not the window.

I'm going back on a gain cycle so I can use a classic, nuggets, side salad + frosty for a post workout recovery. I always shower down after my gym routine anyhow.

I'm thinking chili and frosty is my first stop-- drive through and eaten at home. 

We'll move back up to chili-cheese fries and baked potato over time.

So.

What's the half-life of roasted peanut proteins? 6 months on those aggravatingly durable suckers?

:heart: running from a legume. Total picture of sanity. But I've got to start showing Wendy's some $$$ love for making it possible to consume products there once more.
