Okay, so we might be big fans of Disney food, but we won’t lie, we love McDonald’s, too.
We also love when McDonald’s tries new things, like that whole Cosmic Mc’s location that we also just HAD to try out. We’re also trying out new snacks when they release at McD’s, but this time, we’re super excited to try a sandwich that’s finally made it to the U.S. after debuting internationally. It’s the Chicken Big Mac…and let’s just say we have some thoughts about it.
So, the Chicken Big Mac debuted in the U.K. in 2022, and, apparently, it was such a hit there that McDonald’s began testing it here in the U.S. at select locations. Now, though, the Chicken Big Mac is available everywhere, so we ran to our local McDonald’s to see what all the fuss was about.
The Chicken Big Mac is a lot like its beefier counterpart, except with chicken. You get two tempura chicken patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, and pickles, on a sesame seed bun. We’re going to have to start our review, though, by warning you our reporter hasn’t had a Big Mac (shocking, we know), so they are basically judging the new sandwich on its own merits. You’re getting an unbiased review here, people. Overall, it’s just a BIG old chicken sandwich.
We will say that we thought it was good, but the Big Mac sauce just kind of throws it all off. It just doesn’t seem to belong on chicken. So, yeah, it’s kind of…well, weird.
The lettuce is finely diced and adds a little crunch, but most of the crunch comes from the chicken. The tangy pickles are good, too, if you’re a pickle fan. The cheese doesn’t add a lot of flavor. Again, the flavor you’re mostly hit with is the Big Mac sauce.
If you are more of a chicken fan than a burger fan, this could please you, but honestly, we just think the Big Mac works better as a burger. Sorry, McDonald’s!
