McDonald’s Adds Two New Fried Chicken Sandwiches to Its Breakfast Menu | Eater

"Having watched Chick-fil-A and Popeyes build obsessive fanbases, the chain has experimented with several chicken sandwiches — including a Crispy Chicken Sandwich tested in Houston and Knoxville in December that generated little buzz, and an earlier BBQ Chicken Sandwich that drew a resounding “meh” from diners. According to Business Insider, it is now releasing two limited-time chicken breakfast sandwiches nationwide: the Chicken McGriddle and the McChicken Biscuit. Reviewers note the McChicken Biscuit is a drier, paler take on Chick-fil-A’s famous sandwich and differs from the decade-old Southern Style Chicken Biscuit; a Forbes reviewer called the McGriddle somewhat spongy but said the chicken pairs nicely with the biscuit. Overall, these moves are seen as a valiant attempt to address an identity crisis but mostly amount to another daytime option rather than a decisive solution." - Jaya Saxena
