This Is The Most Popular Fast Food Fried Chicken In America!
There is a lot of debate over fried chicken. There are plenty of options, but in a quest for the best fast food fried chicken, Business Insider did a head to head comparison to see which of the top selling brands is the best.
They compared Churchs, Popeyes, KFC, and Chick-fil-A. Their taste test results may cause a battle of words, however, as many have their own favorites and might not agree.
First up was Churchs. The original 3 piece meal was purchased for $5.43.
While the chicken itself was juicy and the breading had the perfect crunch, they felt the batter was a bit flavorless.
Next up was Chick Fil A where a three count Chick n Strips was ordered for $5.11.
Business Insider claims the Chick-Fil-A strips disappointed them because they were more like nuggets than the Church’s chicken. But, Id like to point out that they are different products that I would never compare in a head-to head matchup.
They did like the taste of the chicken strips. The breading was rather flavorful and the chicken was tender. Ultimately, they scored the Chick Fil A poorly because the strips were unlike the actual pieces of chicken at Churchs.
Next, they ordered a three piece meal at Popeyes for $5.65
Popeyes has a fan following. The Louisiana chicken is known for its bold flavors and marinades. It rated well because the chicken was juicy and the breading was flavorful and had the perfect crunch.
KFC rounded out the taste test with a two-piece meal which cost $5.99.
KFC has been a fried chicken staple for a very long time. Its hard to think of fried chicken without thinking of Colonel Sanders, but ultimately, these taste testers werent impressed.
They felt the KFC chicken was dry and the breading was thin and tasteless. They also said the breading lacked the proper crunch.
Because of this, KFC came in last in this taste test. Chick Fil A came in third, Churchs was second, and Popeyes was the clear winner as you can see in the ranking photo below.
This wasnt an apples to apples taste test. Chick Fil A was at a disadvantage because they dont offer the same meals as the other three. If they had done a taste test of chicken sandwiches, it would be hard to beat the polite chicken franchise. But, when it comes to fried chicken, are there really any losers?

I vote for number 3, Chic-fil-A, for their Americanism. What is Church? So, Church is a name of a fast food restaurant? Maybe I should try them someday. I like free chickens from smaller farms. I also try to be as vegan as possible. Some fish for the brain. Not too much meat. More nuts. i eat from my gardens. Let my people go said the chicken that crossed the road. i'm Oatmeal. I have a dream said the freed Martin Luther Chicken haha.
Martin Luther Chicken ?

This is not even a debate - Popeye's spicy chicken hands down! Followed by a lesser known chain Kennedy Fried Chicken in NYC.
Popeye's spicy chicken hands down! hahahahaha
Don't even get me started on Chick-fil-a. I give them last place just because every time I see their drive thru line wrap around the building it makes me lose faith in humanity. Hardly anyone is inside ordering but people will wait behind 15 cars that obstructs the flow of traffic for everyone else.
Man, I will place Crown's Fried Chicken before Chick-fil-a just for their grimey appearance and sweet potato pie.
on point
