A fast-food favorite just hit grocery shelves—but only in a couple of US cities
- Replies 0
It’s not every day your favorite fast food jumps from the drive-thru to the freezer aisle.
But that’s exactly what’s happening for some lucky shoppers.
For the first time ever, a major burger chain is letting fans take home its most iconic menu item—and grill it themselves.
Wendy’s fans in Columbus, Ohio and Denver, Colorado can now buy the chain’s signature square beef patties right in local grocery stores.
The launch is just in time for grilling season and gives shoppers a chance to enjoy a familiar taste from home.
The patties are sold in four-packs, each weighing four ounces for a total of one pound per package.

According to a statement from the company, “Wendy’s fans can enjoy our fresh beef in our restaurants and at home.”
Available at King Soopers and Kroger, the patties are designed to deliver the same experience customers expect from a Wendy’s burger.
As of now, the rollout is limited to those two cities, and Wendy’s has not announced if the patties will expand into other regions.
A spokesperson for the company confirmed the launch but did not provide further details about long-term availability or distribution.
The news has already sparked major interest online.
A popular food-focused account shared the announcement on Instagram, drawing thousands of likes and excited comments from fans across the country.
Some users were thrilled at the idea of seasoning and grilling the patties themselves, while others joked about bringing Wendy’s spicy nuggets to store shelves next.
One commenter even suggested a fast-food subscription box—complete with merchandise and meal kits.

And with the strong online buzz, many fans are already hoping for more.
