Calories & Nutrition Insights
This is a less healthy, indulgent option that is best enjoyed occasionally rather than as a regular meal. The 680 calories place it firmly on the heavier side of Wendy’s burger menu, and the nutrition profile shows that much of this energy comes from fat rather than balanced macronutrients.
Total fat is high at 44 g, with 18 g of saturated fat. This level of saturated fat signals indulgence and makes moderation important, especially for those watching heart health. Protein is a clear strength. With 37 g of protein, this sandwich is very filling and supports muscle maintenance and satiety, which can help curb snacking later in the day.
Sodium is a major consideration. At 1,500 mg, it delivers a significant portion of a typical daily limit in one meal. This makes it less suitable for low-sodium or heart-conscious diets. Carbohydrates are moderate at 35 g, but fiber is low at just 2 g, meaning it offers limited digestive support. Sugar remains relatively controlled at 6 g, which helps prevent sharp blood sugar spikes compared to more carb-heavy options.
This item is best suited for protein-focused eaters, active individuals, or anyone deliberately choosing a rich, satisfying burger. Those managing sodium, saturated fat, or overall calorie intake should limit or avoid it.
From a practical standpoint, it works best as an occasional lunch or dinner. To balance the meal, skip fries and sugary drinks and pair it with water or a lighter side elsewhere in the day.
Bacon Portabella Mushroom Melt vs Dave’s Single
Bacon Portabella Mushroom Melt is the heavier, more indulgent option in Wendy’s cheeseburgers lineup. At 680 calories, it delivers a richer experience driven by higher total fat and saturated fat, along with elevated sodium. The upside is protein density, offering stronger satiety for those seeking a filling, premium-style burger. This choice aligns with hearty appetites and occasional indulgence.
Dave’s Single serves as the more balanced everyday cheeseburger. With fewer calories and noticeably lower sodium and saturated fat, it fits better into routine meals while still providing solid protein. It delivers a classic burger profile without the added richness, making it a smarter pick for moderation-focused or lighter meal goals.
Price Comparison
The Bacon Portabella Mushroom Melt is positioned as a premium cheeseburger on the Wendy’s cheeseburger menu, reflecting its specialty ingredients and larger portion.
Taste & Texture
The Mushroom Melt delivers a rich, savory bite from the first taste. The beef patty is juicy and well-seasoned, providing a strong, meaty base. Portabella mushrooms add an earthy, slightly umami flavor that deepens the overall profile without tasting heavy or bitter.
The melted cheese is creamy and smooth, coating the patty and mushrooms with a soft, velvety texture. Bacon brings a smoky, salty crunch that contrasts nicely with the tender mushrooms. Each bite feels layered, moving from crisp edges to a soft, satisfying center.
The bun is lightly toasted, adding gentle structure without overpowering the fillings. It holds the sandwich together while staying soft and warm. Overall, the texture balances juicy, creamy, and lightly crispy elements, creating a hearty, indulgent burger that feels filling and slow-eating rather than quick or light.
Pairing Suggestions
The Bacon Portabella Mushroom Melt has a rich, savory profile, so pairing it with the right sides and drinks helps balance the meal and enhance the overall experience.
