I have been meaning to do a follow up to this post! I wanted to share a bit about the trip in general and my experience as a whole. If you have followed me for any length of time you know I am a bit of an introvert, I don’t exactly like to be away from my family and can count on one hand the times that I have traveled alone. I had nerves in my throat for a few days about the whole thing. Plus for all I knew I was going to be a big nerd on camera, completely shut down and no words come out for 24 hours. 


 I stepped off of the plane and expected to see one camera guy…. you can see by the pictures that a whole crew was waiting for me. And you can probably tell by the beginning of this video that I was sooooo nervous.

Well, everything was fine in a matter of minutes. The film guys were so incredibly kind, the Wendy’s team made me feel so at home and welcomed…everyone just put my nerves to ease in a matter of moments! 


That night I got to meet the other bloggers and everyone was just absolutely amazing. I don’t know much about food (I am in a full-on attempt to learn more as of late) so they were so great with me and taught me so much. It was nice to take four completely different girls who have a common thread (blogging) and instantly have so much to talk about. 

 The second day we went to the Wendy’s headquarters and I was blown away. The entire feel was modern and chic. The Wendy’s team was so kind and even gave us a tour of their taste kitchen and showed us where they conduct all of their taste testing. We heard from a variety of different people and all of our questions were answered.

I would work with Wendy’s again in a heartbeat. It means a lot to me how someone treats another…. I know that has nothing to do with food and food was the point of me being there but as someone who has worked with a variety of companies and sees everything across the spectrum, I can honestly say they were wonderful and it was truly a pleasure being involved in this project!

    You are just thee cutest! I'm a fairly new follower (and fellow north Texas resident!) and loved seeing you on camera! Every time I pass a Wendy's I think of you and that sandwich…..as someone who rarely eats fast food (I normally turn my nose up to anything but Chickfila!) I'm dying to try one of these!!

  16. Dear Casey,
    How cool! Wendy's has always been my favorite fast-food place because (at least in NE) they are the only ones readily available who put REAL veggies on their typical hamburgers. 🙂 I'm sure regardless of your nervous jitters they were happy to add your beautiful spirit and self to their project.

    Love,
    Case of the Munchies in NE

  17. SO fun. And I'm sure an incredible experience. 🙂

  18. Love hearing about your experience with Wendy's. It sounds so fun and I keep meaning to go try the new sandwich so thanks for the reminder! haha
