When I first moved to the US in 2014 my mom and I ate beef burgers at McDonald's in the airport. I don't remember the last time I did this since I almost always eat at Chick Fil A at my local airport
It's affordable, sort of !
i am plant based lol
Chicken is easier on the bodies digestive system to assimilate the food and also you can vary it up .. like fried chicken, grilled chicken etc
The chicken the masses are eating is full of steroids and antibiotics that make them grow big and fast. Any wonder why we see so many obese people these days…
McDonald’s 🏆 lol
Chicken is a lesser quality protein than beef.
Nothing beats jerk chicken….
Black people.
In Peru we eat better lol
Damnn i just love capitalism☺☺
When popeyes replies "Yall good" it was representative of them taking a massive L and not knowing how to respond. That was hilarious!
haha such a garbage sandwich too
Chick-fil-A has a fan base as a result of there customer service! As long as that along with speed there going to keep there Success, not to mention their high-quality!
the mayo sound effect was fking disgusting. fire the editor plz
I like that Americans seem to think a breaded chicken on white bread with mayo is a healthier option than other fast food items. We find very creative ways to introduce really unhealthy saturated fats and carbs into anything, even healthy things like chicken or salads that can contain more calories than burgers.
I ❤️ chicken
I think plain chicken is amazing. I'm from South Asia 🤍
Chicken is the best meat dont @ me
I feel like people who stand in long lineups for trendy foods instead of waiting for the hype to die down are most likely the people to be NPCs in this universe
Chicken Sandwhich

Because real beef is extinct in America so we feel better eating fake chicken.
None of these look delicious
chicken = good
breading and deep frying = disgusting
some of the statistics here and info clearly shows that some people just speak verbal diarrhea, like the lady explaining how people with bread.. and chicken.. might have used them together… i swear to god its like saying people with a river nearby might take use of that river…
