McDonald's is rolling out a new chicken sandwich across the US in early 2021. The fast-food giant has been working on a revamped chicken sandwich over the last year. According to Business Insider McDonald's have allegedly been testing multiple sandwiches. McDonald's new sandwich aims to compete with Popeyes and Chick-fil-A in the chicken sandwich wars. Last year's Popeye's launched a supremely successful chicken sandwich. Chick-fil-A's continuing success has proved that a high-quality chicken sandwich can drive sales.
