Wendy’s has revamped its French fries, replacing the current version with skin-on fries seasoned with sea salt, the chain said Wednesday. The new natural-cut fries, which mark the first time in 41 years Wendy’s has reworked its fries, are expected to be in all 6,600 stores by the end of next week. Wendy’s said the new fries are part of its “You Know When It’s Real” brand positioning, which has included a new line of premium salads and sandwiches made with applewood-smoked bacon.
