Food Theory: I Found the SPICIEST Fast Food Chicken Sandwich!

*Watch More Episodes with Santi!*

What’s up, loyal Theorist?! In Santi’s FIRST episode of Food Theory, we’re looking at a _classic_ Theorist question: how can you BEST optimize your food? In this case, we’re looking specifically at spicy chicken sandwiches. Which chicken shop stands up to the others? And which is the SPICIEST? Is it really Chick-fil-A and Popeyes? Perhaps the Colonel at KFC stands a strong chance as a popular chicken joint. Or could an underdog like Wendy’s, McDonald’s, or Burger Kings take the crown? Today we find out who has the top spicy chicken sandwich. Let’s get clucking!

🔥🔥🔥 What is your go-to SPICY chicken sandwich?

[TheRealWoopSlap]

There's just something fitting about how Santi's first video, while being the host of the channel, is him finding the spiciest chicken sandwich. It seems that torturing yourself is a trait you inherent when becoming the host of one of the theory channels.

[viniciusvici]

I'm actually very happy with the way Matt slowly introduced us to Santi over time, bringing him in for more and more episodes, getting us familiar with him while also guaging our reactions to seeing him on screen and taking more leading roles. It really made this first video feel like just another food theory, nothing too off the mark from a typical video. Hats off to you, Santi! You made a really enjoyable video to watch!

[Dacryphobia]

i love how enthusiastic this guy is, he's so lively just like matt and he DEFINETLY made me want to get a Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich. 10/10

[Hellens.melons]

It’s gonna be so strange when I go back to watch older videos and I don’t hear santi’s voice it just feels like he fits in to the role of host so well that it’s hard to believe he hasn’t been the host of food theory since the beginning

[tomraineofmagigor]

burger king being called both soggy and dry in the same sentence really sums up burger king

[hagjang]

Santi is my favorite new character we unlocked tbh

[ZzzMeep]

If you didn't get sent here by Tom, get an award 🎖️

[lysbethmiranda]

I am so glad they gave Santi food theory, I feel it suits him so well. Also, I love that they slowly introduced/included the rest of the team in recent videos before Matt leaving. It made it easier for the transition! Cant wait to see these channels grow even more! Still miss you though matt!

[princeyoshi]

Honestly it’s like Matt never left. Santi embodied the YouTube vibes perfectly I’m so excited to see more of his foodie vids!

[MusiciansRule]

Out of all of MatPat's succesors, Santi's my favorite. He's cut from the same cloth of chaos as I am and his love of food reflects in every video he's in. Plus, he's hilarious and more than a little masochistic so this is the PERFECT first video to host!

[MoonAirN]

I watched this when it came out, but I was obligated to pay another visit thanks to Tom 😌

[EuphoricBloom]

First few seconds in.. Already had a dad pun. I like this guy😂

[SilverStormShadow]

I think Santi is the perfect new host for Food Theory. Food Theory has become the most chaotic of the 4 channels, and Santi perfectly embodies that. It is sad that Matthew isn't hosting anymore, but I think Santi is a fantastic replacement, and this is a great opening episode.

[noahwenzel]

To be honest, I thought the retirement of MatPat would end my interest in these channels, but Santi really knocked it out of the park on this one. He kept the same vibes MatPat brought but put his own spin on things that I really enjoy. I can't wait to see more from you Santi!

[thelostorchid]

Now that I think about it, Santi, you are the perfect person for this channel. Not because of any legitimate reason just because I swear when I was going to South Carolina we stopped that place called Santi’s kitchen. Like that sounds like it would be a local food chain and I’m pretty sure it’s just my imagination but as soon as you start talking about chicken… The thought came to mind and now I can’t get it out of my head. Santi’s kitchen.

[pandagamer]

I like how you approached this, instead of being like more spicy is better, you chose to focus on the experience of the spice. I wish more things would do that.

[jordanhunter]

MatPat's ultimate goal: Hot Ones
Santi's ultimate goal: Howlin Ray's Extreme Heat

[torazely]

I like how they made the thumbnail look like the other spicy food videos.

Also its clever how they're spacing the premiere episodes apart so we get aquainted with each new host individually, not to mention doing it in the order the channels were made.

[Aeroczema]

I'm back to watch this again because Tom told me to!
