The syrup's natural immunity boost has created a bit of chatter during the pandemic ... 👀
Wendy's has become a popular go-to breakfast destination for Americans during the pandemic. The fast-food company launched its successful morning daypart in March of 2020, just as other chains began to see declines in breakfast sales. But against all odds, Wendy's breakfast became a major driver behind the chain's recovering sales, and it took the spot of the most buzzed-about breakfast in the country."We came into the morning daypart as an underdog, and we launched it in the midst of COVID. And yet here we are—less than a year into it, and we're matching competitors who have been in the market for 50 years," Carl Loredo, the chain's chief marketing officer, said during a live webcast on Wednesday. (Related: McDonald's Is Making These 8 Major Upgrades.)Wendy's was able to gain the enormous traction at breakfast with nimble marketing strategies, which sought to reach customers in new ways (while gaming or binge-watching their favorite shows, for example). But it was an operation set up for pandemic success from the get-go, because it was tailored for drive-thru success, according to Loredo. Wendy's also onboarded four major delivery partners and pivoted to a new way of doing business—fast.At the end of the day, the fast-food chain believes none of these moves would have made an impact had it not been for its most powerful weapon in the breakfast wars: the cut-above-the-rest breakfast options."It really comes down to our breakfast menu," Loreda said. "It's something that our consumers love, and nobody can touch in the marketplace."From familiar, comfort-food brunch flavors like maple-honey butter and hollandaise, Wendy's set out to one-up the boring homemade breakfast Americans had suddenly found themselves sentenced to during the pandemic, John Li, the chain's vice president of culinary innovation, said."Why wait till Saturday or Sunday to have a wonderful brunch experience?" Li asked. "We built that thinking into every single sandwich and every item that you see on our breakfast menu."However, Wendy's may still have a few more tricks up its sleeve when it comes to innovating at breakfast time. The company teased a potential spicy addition to its morning daypart, for one."We'll continue to find ways to spice up our menu when it comes to breakfast," Loreda added, hinting that the chain had taken note of the popularity of its Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Spicy Chicken Nuggets. "We love the storyline that is from our spicy chicken sandwich to the spicy nugz that folks love, and so, we'll continue to lean in there."Another innovation could come in the Frosty category, Li said. "There is stuff that we are always working on in the space of Frosty—not just the Frosti-ccino but the Frosties for the rest of the day," he continued.Don't forget to sign up for our newsletter to get the latest restaurant news delivered straight to your inbox.

The coronavirus has killed more than 425,000 Americans and wounded many more. We'll never return to pre-pandemic normal. But how about normal-ish? When can we go to a baseball game or out to eat without worrying about death around every corner? Dr. Anthony Fauci, the chief medical advisor to the President and the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has a stock answer for that: "Fall," he has said, always adding that it depends on the number of people who get vaccinated. However, one noted former Harvard professor is less optimistic. Read on to hear when he thinks things will actually return to normal—and to ensure your health and the health of others, don't miss these Sure Signs You've Already Had Coronavirus. "It's Not Realistic" That Things Will be Normal in the FallDr. William A. Haseltine, a former professor at Harvard Medical School who is known for his groundbreaking work on HIV/AIDS and the human genome, spoke during an online program organized by Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute at Hunter College."Do you think this is realistic?" asked the moderator about Fauci's fall prediction."It's not realistic," said Dr. Haseltine. "This thing is going to come bouncing back in some form in the fall, and it's going to make us worried. And there are going to be variants that escape our drugs and our vaccines, just like there is with the flu." "Is it going to be worse than the flu?" he continued. "Maybe a bit worse than the flu? I would say steady state is kind of going to be like a really bad flu year. What we have to do is cope with it in different ways. We have to say, well, who's it really going to be killing—well, 40% of the people4pm. killed were in our nursing homes, assisted living. And another way to tackle this, which we haven't even begun to talk about is how we handle our elder population. They're very fragile and they're dying in massively disproportionate numbers. And so a solution may not be a vaccine as much as it is a better way to ensure the safety and care of our older population."So when might we get back to normal? More like 2022, he says.RELATED: If You Feel This, You May Have Already Had COVID, Says Dr. FauciHow to Stay Healthy Until Things are Back to NormalUntil we've reached herd immunity, follow the public health fundamentals and help end this surge, no matter where you live—wear a face mask, social distance, avoid large crowds, don't go indoors with people you're not sheltering with (especially in bars), practice good hand hygiene, get vaccinated when it becomes available to you, and to protect your life and the lives of others, don't visit any of these 35 Places You're Most Likely to Catch COVID.
