Thanks for the shout out, Josh! My little brother was so excited to tell me he saw you at work!

Should've done the McCrispy sandwich instead of the McChicken probably is just as bad but I feel like that's more of the kind of chicken sandwich you're going for

Tried jolibee for the first time last year and was absolutely blown away. couldnt agree more

Mcdonalds has a "premium" chicken sandwich. Kind of unfair to get the dollar menu chicken sandwich instead when you are getting premium chicken sandwiches from other places that are charging $6+ for one sandwich.

All I learned from this chicken sandwich review is that a lot of fast food managers don't make sure the fry oil is getting changed.

Edit: I'll reply to all the comments about why this happens all at once. In my experience the equipment for filtering and changing is a pain to use and clean so nobody wants to filter and especially nobody wants to scrub or soak the fryer before adding the new oil which ruins the new oil faster. Also yes budget can come into it.

What I've learned is that the quality of franchises really comes down to individual stores

I love how high Bojangles scored, i lived in the south and a lot of the fast-food chains aren't around here but Bojangles? Making chicken sandwiches was one of their best decisions ever I love them

A fresh Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich is easily the best chicken sandwich. I’ve been too Popeyes around 10 times and the most recent time it was perfectly fresh. It might have been the best thing I’ve ever eaten

OMG OMG Josh Weissman voted us the GREATEST chicken sandwich in America!! We love you too *fangirl screaming*

My wife just bought me both of your cookbooks for my birthday and I'm hyped. I'm currently in the process of reading through your first one, and just got through the stocks and broths section. Extremely well written and lives up to the hype. Huge thank you to my wife for buying them for me, and an equally huge thank you to you for writing them Josh.

Coming from Germany, its crazy to see how many „similar“ fast food places there really are. We got like Mc Donalds, BK, Kfc, Subway and thats it

[TheSpecial]

As an European, I am always shocked by the number of different fast food chains in America, and how similar they all look like.

As Mexican who lived in Hawaii and having tried all the U.S. Fast food restaurants, Jollibee is by far my favorite place for chicken sandwiches. Best chicken by far, crispy and very moist. Now I live in Mexico but no Jollibee here 😭😭

[armandoblanco-naranjo]

7:55 As a former fastfood worker, If someone ever talked to me like that at a drive thru, I'd leave 😂

[Rosa-mjmt]

I think what set jollibees chicken sandwich apart isn’t necessarily the flavor but just how well it was made and also the bun to chicken ratio was also the best in my opinion. Ive never had a dry jollibee chicken sandwich so i think tge rating was well deserved

[yourfriendlyyoutuber]

I wasn’t even surprise Jolibee won, the first time I ever tried their spicy chicken burger, I was convinced it was the best chicken burger I ever had and I crave it every week I swear

[justclassicglam]

Jollibee is the GOAT of fried chicken. Every time I go the line is around the block from open to close, it's actually as close as you can get to food crack. 😍

[cupofearlgreytea]

Former zaxbys employee here, the reason the chicken is stringy is because unlike other places, the chicken isn't put through any kind of process or pressing to make it that smooth patty your used to getting at other joints.

They use REAL filets that are no different than the ones you get at grocery stores.
Those strings are the natural fibers that make up the muscle you're eating

As someone from NC it feels good to see Bojangles ranking so high up.
