McDonald’s Enters Fast Food War With 3 New Chicken Sandwiches

Starting Wednesday, McDonald’s has officially entered the fast-food chicken sandwich war launching three new fried chicken sandwiches nationwide: the Crispy, the Spicy and the Deluxe. Though McDonald’s does have a variety of chicken options, it will join several other chains with popular chicken sandwiches.

“We’ve heard our customers loud and clear, and we know they’re craving more chicken options. We’re confident all chicken fans – from traditionalists to spice enthusiasts – will discover a new menu favorite they’ll come back for time and time again” said Linda VanGosen, Vice President of Menu Innovation at McDonald’s.

MyMCM reached out to several local McDonald’s restaurants. They confirmed that all Montgomery County locations are serving the new sandwiches.

the question is not IF u are getting our Chicken Sandwich today, the question is Crispy, Spicy or Deluxe?
