McDonald's is trying to cash in on Americans' growing appetite for chicken sandwiches while upping its game in the increasingly competitive breakfast segment.

Starting this week, the fast food giant is selling its Chicken McGriddles and McChicken Biscuit sandwiches nationally for a limited time. They were previously available only in some regional markets.

McDonald's chicken is trash tier, even Wendy's has better tasting chicken.

And Chick-Fil-A...they can't compete with that.

Id at least try McDonalds before immediately disliking it. Chick-fil-a is ok. But Im not the biggest fan of their chicken sandwiches... Theyre ok, but not my favorite or anything. I do like the nuggets, though.

Damn, weve had the chicken McGriddle here for some time now .... guess the benefit of being in the south.

Id safely wager the majority of people in all parts of Georgia are only really interested in the food and arent thinking about stuff like that.

I got a chicken sandwich meal at chick fil a a couple of weeks ago it was just a piece of chicken with two pickles and the buns were flat. Shit was so flat I thought they gave me a slice a chicken. And that shit was like 10 bucks. McDonald's can absolutely compete with that scam.

It's not. It uses the mchicken patty which is bland with the only flavor really coming from the black pepper. It's low quality chicken. Chick fil a uses breast filets, if they made a sandwich like a chicken mcgriddle their sales would increase a lot. It's probably in the works, just like hopefully fried pickles.

I dont think they said gross. Just not worth it. And where are you that chick fil a is not expensive. Like, it wont break the bank. But it cost more than fast food places. Though, I think they are considered something else. Like not restaurant quality, but more than fast food, or something...

Bay area California. It wasn't gross but it was visually unappealing. It was given to me in a foil sleeve that was less than inch thick. It looked crushed and depressing. Like my spirit that morning.

That chick fil a chicken though just melts in your mouth, and I love that flat barely there bun. There for the chicken, not the bread. Its just damn good.

combo here is around $6, I know different areas are more expensive but Ive never thought of them as expensive. Zaxbys on the other hand.

I think its funny how some people get legit angry if you do nothing short of jerking off CFA. It's good. But the atmosphere and the staff are consistently the best when it comes to fast food joints. That's why you're paying $5 for a meh chicken sandwich.

I don't think chicken when I think McDonalds, outside nuggets. But maybe one day soon I'll veer off my diet for lunch and try one.

Ive had only 1 burger that sort of melted in my mouth. The others have now been that good. Thats why I just get nuggets from there now...

chick fil a is more expensive than 3.75 where I am, and I live in Little Rock -- but only a few cents more.

A combo is like $7
