McDonald's is entering the chicken sandwich war with this crispy little number...
Who can forget last year’s chicken sandwich wars? I kind of miss when the Popeyes and Chick-fil-a feud was the most dramatic thing going on in my life. Even Wendy’s and Shake Shack got in on the action, but this year McDonald’s is the brand to watch.
The Golden Arches are debuting a brand-new Crispy Chicken Sandwich early next year, and we can’t wait to get our hands on it. Here’s what we have to look forward to in 2021.
McDonald’s Menu Is Getting Bigger
McDonald’s put out a press release revealing its intention to “expand its chicken offerings,” partly by introducing this new sandwich, but they didn’t give too many details besides the name—the Crispy Chicken Sandwich! I’m confident that McDonald’s will wow us with juicy fried chicken, a delicious soft bun (brioche, maybe?!), and some unique new sauce to top it all off.
We’re thinking that this new sandwich will build on McDonald’s other chicken offerings—especially the McChicken Biscuit and the Chicken McGriddle. If you’ve had those delicious breakfast items, you probably get why we’re so excited.
Another addition to the McDonald’s menu will be the McPlant. If you’re not sure what that is, you’re not alone—the McPlant is McDonald’s first-ever plant-based burger. The patty is made by Beyond Meat (you may have heard of them before) layered with lettuce, tomato, cheese and onions, all finished with a sesame seed bun. Even if you’re not a vegetarian, this sandwich will be a guaranteed hit.
Try These in the Meantime
The new McDonald’s Crispy Chicken Sandwich and the McPlant won’t be around for a little while, but that just gives us something tasty to look forward to. We can most likely expect the new sammies in early 2021, though we’re hoping for an official rollout at the end of December. Only time will tell!
While you wait, you can always rely on Chick-fil-a for a good chicken sandwich. We’ve even got your back with the best chicken sandwich recipes to make at home. Right before the heavy food of the holidays begins, a chicken sandwich is a great healthy meal to keep yourself going. I might just go pick one up right now.
Sounds good and with a sample menu like you posted I'd be there every day! Except Sunday - how about a pasta instead of turkey soup? Or if you need to use up the turkey from Saturday - turkey pot pie?
The fast food joints in my area, other than Arbys, have not opened up for dining in. They must be making a better profit selling less food with fewer employees, or they would be opening up. Can’t stand eating cold food at home or hot food in my car.
And there you go back to being willfully stupid. Really you spent an entire day bitching and moaning about their decisions. CLEARLY you are interested. If you’d take half an hour to read those articles you would understand the decision. But no. You don’t want to be smart. You want to be on the cross. Martyr.
So what’s so new about this crispy chicken sandwich? Pretty sure they’ve had one for years...?
The article doesn’t say. I don’t think McDonald’s has not said how it’s different. It will likely be a while before we know more.
Go lecture somebody else who might care what you have to say. People who think they know what people should do with their lives, and insist they do it are called commies.
You can waste your life however you want. I’m just pointing out you’re a pathetic whiner martyr who deliberately avoided knowing what you’re talking about so you could complain more.
At 73, and with everyone else in my family having died before that age, there’s not much of my life left to waste, so I’ll use my God given right to spend the last days of my life doing whatever the fuck I want to do, and not what some self-righteous asshole thinks I should be doing.
...or Waffle House for a more "greasy & tasty" experience.
Not - it's not.
Your call my FRiend. Feel free to delete it if you like. I appreciate your feedback and will try to avoid posting similar articles in the future. I truly don’t want to pollute this web site.
