Shame on Wendy's Frosty's

Ok so this is just a mini rant, please let me know if anyone has experienced this. So I went to Wendy's today to get my occasional frosty treat. I always get a chocolate junior frosty for 150 calories. It is a decent size and was always a very satisfying treat. I know the nutritional value is zip but I enjoyed them rarely.

TODAY I go and the frosty is itty bitty. About the size of a water cup you would get, 6oz! AND when I looked up the nutrition excited to see how much lower the calories were since they cut the size nearly in half I found out it was now 170!

Am I missing something? Was I deceived all these years, did my Wendy's give me the wrong size before? Well the good news is NO MORE FROSTYS!

    I do believe that you were getting the larger size previously. I've always known the Junior size to be 6oz

    Yeah, it's not worth it. Go to McDonald's and get a small cone for 150.

    Darn . . . at least there is still the McDonald's lowfat cone for 150 calories and and Starbuck's grande mocha coconut light for 160 calories

    No changes, the Jr is 170 (That's the kids size) and the small is 250.

    Sorry!

    Wendy's has officially reduced the size of their 16oz Frosty to 12 oz but they are still charging the same price. You may have been getting the smaller one before now that is even smaller.
