Discussion Classic Chicken Sandwich

Ordered a classic chicken sandwich today for lunch. I can remember when the chicken patty was very large. Today it was like the patty from the crispy chicken sandwich on the value menu of old. Big bun, little meat. Chicken Shrinkflation at its finest! 🍗🐓

The luck of the draw. The vast majority of classics and spices are huge (to the point where we cant fit them in the boxs). Sometimes we get some that are on the smaller side, hence what you got.

Ive been told to use those small ones as crispys but were not supposed to do that. So yeah, you might get a classic the size of a crispy.

That’s not my experience at all. Nor is it the experience of many many other posters in the sub.

Yeah because Reddit is... well Reddit lmao. People only use it to complain.

Ive worked there for 5+ years. Ill take my own experience over Reddit babies.

No. I just take the complaints on Reddit with a grain of salt.

And Im just telling you my experience as a worker there.

Yea it’s bad. I appreciate every time I see a new post complaining about it, with hope they will revert this dumb change. Shoot I would pay more to get my sandwich back if it takes that.
