Is the Dave's Double a good deal?
At a typical $7.99, the Dave's Double at Wendy's gives you 850 calories and 49g of protein — 6.1g of protein and 106 calories for every dollar you spend. That earns it a value score of 75/100, which ranks it #3 of the 21 burger items we've priced across every chain (the typical burger item returns about 5.2g of protein per dollar).
Where it stands out: a high absolute protein load (49g). Worth noting, though — sodium runs high (1,280mg), and saturated fat is steep (23g). If you want more for your money in the same category, Double Meat Whataburger at Whataburger scores higher (81/100 value, $7.69).
