McDonald’s crispy chicken sandwich has long been popular, even before the company rebranded it McCrispy in 2021.
Fans of the original chicken sandwiches and spice aficionados can now choose from two more McCrispy options. The fast food chain quietly added the Bacon Cajun Ranch McCrispy and Bacon Cajun Ranch Deluxe McCrispy to its menu in the United States.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the fast-food chain unveiled its latest offerings, which draw inspiration from the flavors of soul food from the South. McDonald’s noted that these new variations will be available for a limited time at select locations only. The company will start selling the new McCrispy options on Monday, April 22, while supplies last.
