What Makes McSpicy Fried Chicken One of the Best Entrants

Let’s all admit that things haven’t been all that great in the past months, thanks to Covid-19 and the pandemic it brought. While we were all locked in our houses for quarantine, several things have made a place in our minds and some even made us worry. Among those things were questions like- when will this get over?; Is this how things are going to be now?; What if I never get to go out?; What if I never get to see the world?; Am I that safe?; among others.

Not only that, getting our hands on non-veg has never been so difficult in all our lives. While groceries and other necessities were in abundance, and we thank the frontline workers for that, we really could do with a little bit of perfectly fried chicken once in a while. That was it, things were getting out of hand and our chicken cravings had hit the ceiling. And that was when McDonald’s India (South & West) introduced the McSpicy Fried Chicken.

With the new entrant, McDonald’s promised a burst of flavors till the very last bite, and we were all here for it. The all-new golden-fried chicken, crispy and spicy on the outside and fragrant and juicy on the inside, had become our beacon of hope in this trying time. So, the goodness of the flavors aside, the reason why McSpicy Fried Chicken is one the best McDonald’s entrants of all time is that it was introduced when we needed it. And not to be overdramatic but it was all we ever needed then.

McSpicy Fried Chicken is perfect in every aspect

McDonald’s gives you so many reasons for you to try out the newbie, the savior of the pandemic, and the light at the end of the tunnel. Reasons that vary from the supplier’s end to the moment it reaches your plate. First of all, take note that the chicken you eat at McDonald’s is authentic. By authentic, they mean that no growth promoters or added colors, flavors, and preservatives are used. All the flavors you taste, all the juiciness, are all real and honest. To be honest, that’s all the reason you need to have the chicken reach your plate but McDonald’s does not stop there.

McDonald’s also makes sure that the meat goes through several quality checks and tests. Can you take a guess exactly how many tests are required? A whopping 64 times!!! That’s right. To ensure that the chicken that reaches your plate is completely clean and healthy, the meat goes through 64 different and uniques test at every step. And that’s not even the best part yet.

McDonald’s has always had a way of sourcing the freshest ingredients since the beginning, the same can be said about the chicken that you eat there. If you’re wondering about the steps taken to get the chicken from the farm to your plate, rest assured, it’s all properly and smartly planned out. McDonald’s is all about using the best sourcing methods for them to stay fresh and clean.

For that, McDonald’s makes sure that the farms are located in the vicinity of the processing plant where the chicken and other ingredients are checked, tested, and packed for the last mile delivery to the restaurants. The shorter the time it takes to reach the processing plants from the farms, the better. The chicken on its way to the restaurants is kept in multi-temperature trucks that make sure all the products are stored in cool temperatures so that they retain their freshness. They are also stored separately according to their temperature requirements. Upon reaching the restaurant, all there’s left to do is to fry it in the perfect temperature and for you to savor every bite of it.

Every other chicken item in the menu

Yes, we’ve been talking only about McSpicy Fried Chicken so far but trust me when I say this that this speaks for every other chicken item on the menu. Now, of course, you cannot treat McSpicy Fried Chicken any different than the rest of the chicken items in the menu, sourcing, and processing wise. They all go through the same process, treated equally, and are given equal care when it comes to quality checks and tests.

So yes, every other chicken item such as Chicken McNuggets, McSpicy Chicken Wings, Chicken Maharaja Mac, etc, are all equally great. The only difference lies in the time it was launched. McSpicy Fried Chicken will remain memorable as it was introduced during a time we needed it the most. To have a bite of that rich, flavorful perfectly golden-fried chicken was all it took to wipe our quarantine blues away and we say this with conviction and absolute certainty.

The importance of last-mile safety

A wise man once said that the last steps taken with arrogance will be the downfall of that person and all his efforts. A quite unlikely quote for McDonald’s to resonate with but hey, we are living in weird times, anything is possible and weird is the new normal it may seem. Although this quote suggests that one refrain from arrogance, especially while taking the last steps towards success, it can also mean that one cannot be too careful. One slip can cost you all your efforts and in McDonald’s case, even the safety of your loved ones. And that’s the takeaway we’re using in the case of McDonald’s last-mile delivery safety measures. Since you guys must be worried about ordering food from outside, I’m here to tell you that you can leave all your worries behind and just enjoy your McSpicy Fried Chicken. The staff at McDonald’s have been following the most stringent safety measures to prepare, pack, and deliver your chicken to your doorstep, that is for sure.

Although McDonald’s has always been very careful about cleanliness and hygiene, it was paramount that the safety measures became tighter during the pandemic. This is why they ensure that none of the food is touched with bare hands during preparation, the kitchen is frequently sanitized for safety, and even the McDelivery bags are sanitized. The most important of all, the food is served in a safe and contactless manner. So, there you go, that’s every reason in the book why you should try out the new and delicious McSpicy Fried Chicken.
