"Wendy's burgers have consistently cost more than their biggest competitors, McDonald's and Burger King," Mashed states about the high prices at Wendy's.

The findings didn't surprise Mashed. The website states back in 1971 a burger at Wendy's cost over 45 percent more than the average price for a burger at other fast-food chains.

Wendy's hasn't commented on its higher prices, but its commitment to "fresh, never frozen" items could be a reason for the higher prices.
