Chicken Nugget Challenge: McDonald's Vs. Burger King Vs Wendy's

Chicken nuggets are offered at nearly every restaurant today, whether it is a fast food place or a sit down, fancy establishment. Kids love them, and some adults, do too. Because of this, chicken nuggets have now pretty much become a staple in American cuisine. The question that we are going to try and answer in this article, though, focuses on three fast food restaurants in particular, all of which claim to have the best chicken nuggets around. These fast food establishments are McDonalds, Burger King, and Wendy's - and chances are you have each one available within driving distance of you.

Burger King's Chicken Nuggets

These started out as Burger King's Chicken Tenders, which were long strips of delicious spicy chicken. For some reason they changed them to weird shapes, and I think some of the flavor is gone too. Definitely a bad move, and in my opinion, puts Burger King's chicken nuggets at last place in our Chicken Nugget Challenge.

Wendy's Chicken Nuggets

Wendy's is the last of these three fast food chains to get on the chicken nugget wagon, but their player in the game is a good one, too. Available on their extra value menu, the taste of their chicken nuggets vaguely reminds me off the old school Burger King Chicken Tenders, but these are round in shape. Overall, Wendy's Chicken Nuggets finish at second place in our Chicken Nugget Challenge.

McDonald's Chicken Nuggets

We have saved the best chicken nuggets for last with McDonald's, which is in many people's eyes the absolute best fast food restaurant for chicken nuggets in the entire country. I happen to agree with this fact, and that makes McDonald's Chicken Nuggets number one in the Chicken Nugget Challenge. Their 20 piece chicken nugget box is enough for a whole meal in itself, but it is of course available in small portions, as well.

So in the end, McDonald's chicken nuggets come out on top in our Chicken Nugget Challenge - but really, was it a surprise to anyone? They are the first fast food establishment to offer chicken nuggets out of any restaurant looked at in this review, and they have managed to stay on top throughout all these years. There is of course no telling what the future holds, even for chicken nuggets, but one thing is for sure - McDonald's currently holds the title for the best chicken nugget, and they have definitely proven themselves an extremely tough competitor to beat.
