Is It Good for You?

This deal combines 6 PC Crispy Chicken Nuggets with your choice of a Crispy Chicken Sandwich or Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe. The nutrition totals vary slightly depending on which sandwich you choose, so the figures below reflect both combinations.

  • Calories: The deal provides 520 calories with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich or 550 calories with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, making it a moderate-calorie option for a full meal-sized pairing.
  • Protein: You get 24g protein with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich or 27g with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, giving the meal a meaningful amount of protein that can help with fullness.
  • Sugar: Sugar stays relatively low at 4g with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich and 6g with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, so it is not a major source of added sweetness in the meal.
  • Fat: Total fat ranges from 27g to 32g, so the fat content is worth considering, especially with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe combination.
  • Saturated Fat: Saturated fat is 4g with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich or 9g with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, making the burger option notably higher.
  • Carbohydrates: The deal contains 44g of carbohydrates with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich or 39g with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, providing much of the meal’s energy.
  • Fiber: Both combinations provide 2g of dietary fiber, a modest amount that contributes to daily fiber intake and digestive health.
  • Sodium: Sodium is high at 1,130mg with the Crispy Chicken Sandwich and 1,160mg with the Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe, making this one of the nutrients to watch.

Overall Verdict: A reasonable value-focused choice for most customers, but the sodium and fat are worth keeping in mind; the Crispy Chicken Sandwich version is the lighter of the two combinations.

Best Food Pairings

Since the $4.99 deal already includes two entrées, drinks are the most natural way to round it out without adding another substantial food item. The choices below give you different drink styles depending on how you want the meal to finish.

DrinkWhy It Pairs WellBest Occasion
Coke® Zero SugarA zero-sugar option adds a drink without the sugar listed for regular soft drinks.Lunch or dinner
Diet Coke®Its 1–2 calorie listing keeps the drink addition very light.Lunch or dinner
Peach RefresherThe fruit-based drink gives the meal a sweeter option at 180 calories.Afternoon meal

Is It Worth the Cost?

At $4.99, the deal offers two entrée items for substantially less than the supplied Wendy’s combo alternatives. You can choose between a Crispy Chicken Sandwich and a Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe alongside the 6 PC Crispy Chicken Nuggets, giving the meal useful variety. The biggest tradeoff is that the deal does not include the broader combo format shown in the comparison items.
