SAN JOSE, CA - MAY 13: Wendy's patrons leave the Monterey Highway location May 13, 2005 after the restaurant began to give free Frosty Dairy Desserts as a nationwide promotion in San Jose, California. Wendy's restaurants nationwide participated in a free giveaway of their Frosty Dairy dessert after being involved in a wrongful lawsuit filed by a customer who claimed that she was served a bowl of chili with a severed human finger at the Monterey Highway location in San Jose. The accusations proved to be false, with the suspect, Anna Ayala, after investigations revealed she planted the finger in her food, according to San Jose Police. (Photo by Don Feria/Getty Images)
When you go to your nearby Wendy’s you have to get a cup of their chili! It’s probably the best chili you can get at any fast food restaurant. Some people love the chili so much, they’d buy extra sides of it to put it on their favorite food like a baked potato or bread bowl. But this involves you buying a bunch of side portions from the them, then taking it home and refrigerating it. Now that is a thing of the past!
Wendy’s Chili is now available to buy in a can, so you can have it on hand for any occasion and time. Instead of going to one of their 6,000 locations, you can no go to your local grocery store and pick up a can or two!
Single-Serve cans will be available at your local Kroger store. There’s not real release date for it, but people have said they’ve already seen them pop up in stores.
As for an official release date, there’s isn’t one. But if you have a local Kroger store near you, and you’re obsessed with the chili, go take a look at your nearest grocery store!
Wendy’s Chili is made with leftover hamburger patty meat, but is so good! And even though Wendy’s won’t be making it, it will come from a packaged food producer, but will still have the same great taste you crave.
