Frescata

Information about Frescata

Frescata is a registered trademark of Wendy's restaurants, used to refer to its line of cold sandwiches available at its restaurants.

The sandwiches in the Frescata line include[1]:
  • Frescata Club
  • Roasted Turkey & Swiss
  • Black Forest Ham & Swiss
  • Chunky Chicken Salad Frescata
According to the St. Petersburg Times[2], the word Frescata does not appear to mean anything in any other language, including Italian, referenced in the name of the Frescata Italiana sandwich. According to the article, the word Frescata was coined to bring to mind the word "fresh" even if, as the article suggests, that's not always the case in reality. It is also notable that, purely by accident, the words mean something unintentional in another Mediterranean language, Modern Greek. The words "fresca scata" (φρέσκα σκατά) mean "fresh shit", and Frescata is easily read as a contraction of this, similar to writing "Freshit" in English.
