Our Review
This is a popular and simple sandwich on McDonald’s Chicken menu. It has the best taste with its Junior Crispy Chicken and other topping ingredients like shredded lettuce and mayonnaise-style sauce that are nestled in a soft regular bun. The ingredient’s quality makes this sandwich a convenient option for when you are on the go and looking for some delicious and crispy fast food.
It is exactly similar in taste and ingredients to McChicken but the biggest and main difference is the size of the crispy chicken patty. Price-wise, the junior crispy chicken sandwich is cheaper than McChicken.
However, if I talk about its allergens, it also contains some potential allergens like sesame seed, egg, wheat, etc.
Besides this sandwich, you can get it paired up with your favorite cold drink and a packet of fries as a meal option from the McDonald’s menu. The cost of the meal depends on the size of the additional items.
