Burger King, Wendys, McDonald's declare war with new chicken sandwiches. I remember back in the days when dinosaurs roamed the earth, and I was in junior high, that you could buy a hamburger sandwich for $0.10. Those days are long gone, of course. Dinosaurs no longer roam the Wild West (California, and the Pacific Ocean). And now a simple hamburger can set you back $5 or more. A simple chicken sandwich can cost $5 or more. We are living in an era of stagflation, where prices keep zooming, and money flows to the 1%. ----- ----- Burger King, Wendys ramp up the competition in the chicken sandwich wars Yahoo Finance Brooke DiPalma February 17, 2021, 8:25 AM Burger King (QSR) on Wednesday jumped into the widening chicken wars with a new hand-breaded sandwich -- just as McDonald's is expected to debut its own version, and on the same day Wendy's rolled out an update to its menu item. The battlefield for the hearts and stomachs of consumers is growing more fierce, with a clutch of fast food giants unveiling competitors for Popeye's wildly popular sandwich. As a result, Burger King is planning to release the item nationwide later this year, after a lengthy testing process that began in 2019. Ellie Doty, chief marketing officer of Burger King, North America, told Yahoo Finance in an interview that the company took its time in an effort to "get it right." She added: "For us, hand-breading is to chicken what flame-grilling is to burgers so we’ve been working to perfect this hand-breaded chicken sandwich since 2019 from operations to training procedures, we’re focused on getting it right for our guests.” The company's sandwich includes a white meat chicken breast that is breaded by hand, then served on potato bun with deli pickles, "signature sauce" and available "your way" both original or spicy. Meanwhile, the chicken sandwich war continues to heat up across the fast food industry, with Wendy's (WEN) unveiling a savory newcomer to its chicken sandwich lineup: the Jalapeño Popper Sandwich. The sandwich, available nationwide for a limited time, comes in three iterations: Classic, spicy and grilled. The classic version retails for $5.99, and is slathered with jalapeños and flavored cream cheese, along with three slices of bacon and cheddar and pepper jack cheeses. Along with the sandwich, the fast food chain also released a $6.79 fried chicken salad topped with creamy jalapeño ranch. Since the launch of Popeye's chicken sandwich, consumers have also seen competing versions at other fast food chains including KFC (YUM), Arby’s, Jimmy John’s, and McDonald’s (MCD), which is set to debut Feb. 24. Shares of Burger King's parent company, Restaurant Brand International (which is also behind the successful Popeyes's chicken sandwich), is down more than 12 percent from a year ago.

I can't decide if I'll be a winner or a loser in this war but either way I may need bigger pants. | |
