McDonald’s has examined its new chicken sandwiches, which it will release next week, and Burger King has just announced that it will also be launching a new chicken sandwich sometime this year.
Wendy’s beat them both just like that.
The fast food chain in Dublin, Ohio, on Wednesday unveiled some new menu items, including a tasty jalapeno popper chicken sandwich.
The new sandwich features a spicy chicken fillet served with jalapeno cream cheese and jalapeno slices, smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and shredded gingerbread cheese on a toasted sandwich.

This is the latest step in the fast-food ‘chicken-sandwich war’ in which chains have tried to outdo each other since the huge popularity of the sandwiches that Popeyes launched in 2019 caused the restaurant to sell out for several months.
Carl Loredo, head of marketing at The Wendy’s Company, said in a press release that the new sandwich casts a huge shadow over the competition. ‘
“While everyone is catching up and distracting consumers with stale sandwich drops, we’re listening to exciting flavors and fatty ingredients to help fans avoid the McStake using the same boring chicken sandwiches from other fast food joints,” he said.

Wendy’s also added a new jalapeno popper chicken salad with romaine and spring blend salad, tomatoes, jalapeno and cheddar croutons, plus jalapeno farming.
John Li, the vice president of culinary innovation at the company, said in a written statement that the addition of the menu “was inspired by classic jalapeno popers who know and like fans.”
The “premium” ingredients of the menu items also mean a premium price. The chicken sandwich with jalapeno popper will sell for $ 5.99, while the salad will cost $ 6.79.
McDonald’s three new chicken sandwiches, which will be launched about a week after Wendy’s new sandwich on February 24, will be between $ 3.49 and $ 4.69, Reuters reports.
