- Chick-fil-A has long dominated the chicken sandwich category in fast food. After Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen launched its own version of the chicken sandwich, other fast food chains like Wendy's, McDonalds and Shake Shack got into the battle. Here's how chicken took over America.

How Chicken Became An American Obsession
I remember that news story about the guy who broke out of jail to get a Popeyes chicken sandwich. When he got arrested again he said it was worth it.😂😂😂
Any food outside of prison is worth it.
Are you serious 😂😂 did that actually happen?
lmao what
I remember someone died over the sandwich because they were fighting over who cut who in line
Note: Ran to Popeyes will be back in cell in 30. Sincerely, your prisoner.
You know your life has ceased to have meaning when you file a lawsuit against a restaurant chain for running out of a product.
Nah these people hope the company will settle the case and they can easily get away with tens of thousands of dollars.

Chicken is a hell of a drug
@@UPSCCSE-xk5hn Stop spamming propogandist.
Dave Parsons: But in the US, such nonsense has become so common that didn't even surprise me, or do I doubt the veracity without independently verifying it.
We need to have real sanctions for lawyers that bring frivolous lawsuits for clients. In England that happens -- barristers can be suspended from practicing for X months, for example.
The risk is some judges might make a mistake, but as long as that can be appealed, it should be an improvement for our already overcrowded court system.
America’s love for chicken runs deep when it takes almost 45 minutes to explain 😂😂
That's the truth. I think i went to comments after about 20 min
I feel like chicken love it universal like who doesnt like chicken 😂🍗🐔😍😋
We the greatest producer of chicken in the world.
Lies again? Cage Fighter Chicken Feet
Pretty crazy how CNBC can put a whole 38 minute video about chicken together, & make it fascinating
Now you can create your own Luisito's *Pollo con champiñones*
and for free
Always watch it on double speed. Less waste of time
only to find out it was originally aired back in December 2019 (when COVID-19 was only confined in China until now), it was never released here at that time until today
When there is a 2 hour "based on true story" movie on the founding of McDonald's...
Nothing like $5 rotisserie chicken that could feed an entire family.
😂.. ain't that the truth?.. And make it a family meal for $3 more.
welcome to Costco 😁
Sick🤡
Exactly!
Hell yeah. A Costco roast chicken is the Shizznit !!!
I remember nearly 15 years ago the only chicken sandwich I could buy was Carl’s Jr., Wendy’s, and McDonald’s crispy chicken sandwich which was so basic while the beef burgers came in a ton of varieties. Now everyone wants a premium chicken sandwich
in China, the chicken sandwiches of mcdonalds beat the Big Mac
Have been buying crispy chicken sammiches at KFC for 20 years at least. Its theor only oroduct that the oils don't seem to ooze out of
Well yeah, if the options were limited and bot great no ones going to love them
@@johnbee7729 I wouldn't ask a KFC employee about that one ahahah
I can’t have hamburgers anymore which sucks red meat makes me ill.
I worked in restaurants for many years. Closing one day per week is a good policy for many reasons, though very few restaurants do it.
The "off day" is a good day to do minor renovations, deep cleaning, and other projects. Good for employee health, too.
We need 2 days!!
In small business when you work 11 hours a day
In Greece we say you have to rest the business.
Lies again? Executive Chef Omelette Egg
Kyle Smith: I worked in a place like that as a teen. (Blue laws and religion impacting businesses, like being closed on Sundays were a LOT more common in the southern half of the US in the 70's than today).
It was really nice to know you would NOT have to work Sunday, especially after a grueling busy weekend with very busy Friday and Saturday nights.
I think that today profits overwhelm something as prosaic as being closed Sunday on the principle of the thing -- or taking better care of employees.
It’s because a chicken patty has more meat than a smash burger. Give people protein and they’ll be more satisfied with the meal and be more likely to come back
I was disappointed by how small shake shacks burgers were at their price range. It felt like a slider
It’s because we can tear into a chicken “patty” and tell if it’s a real piece of meat or not. Can’t do that with ground beef. Customers want real food.
I love Chick-Fill-A 🤤
This is all gross. You don’t need meat every meal and everything we eat has protein.
@@brianholloway6205 there are like 7 types of essential protein (human body can’t make) and there are very few not animal based food sources where these proteins are balanced. Like unless you are very deliberately making sure that you eat rice with your lentils to get whole protein you are probably malnourished. All animals (humans included) will continue to have an appetite until they have eaten sufficient protein which is one of the leading theories on the obesity epidemic (commonly available foods are high in calories but low in protein)
Chicken is the most accessible and deliciously tasty. So the obsession for chicken is not only US but all over the world.
🌏😋👍
As a chicken addict, I can confirm this
There are also several major religions that disallow the consumption of beef and/or pork but not chicken.
We muslim don't eat pork, the Hindus can't eat beef, but we're agreed on 🐓
Ironically enough, but only casualty in a Chicken Sandwich Wars is and always will be a chicken 🐓!
And our environment. "Eating a vegan diet could be the “single biggest way” to reduce your environmental impact on earth, a new study suggests. Researchers at the University of Oxford found that cutting meat and dairy products from your diet could reduce an individual's carbon footprint from food by up to 73 per cent.Sep 24, 2020"
“A vegan diet is probably the single biggest way to reduce your impact on planet Earth, not just greenhouse gases, but global acidification, eutrophication, land use and water use.”. -Joseph Poore, Environmental Science Researcher, University of Oxford.
Links on my channel under "About."
@@someguy2135 we don't care about Veganism. Let us eat meat if we want to. It has no effect on you or anyone else
@@HH-le1vi People eating animals and what comes out of them creates demand which means more animals bred into existence for your taste buds. Those animals cause the damage to your environment and mine. The UN found that animal ag contributes more to climate change than all transportation combined! They urged mankind to switch to a more plant based diet ASAP!
@@HH-le1vi The effect is only for anyone living on Earth.
I'm surprised the Chick-fil-As been able to scale this large and still maintain a high quality of service so far.
HSelf: If they were correct that the owners only tend to run a store or two and actually ACTIVELY manage the stores, then they can PAY ATTENTION to what goes on and insist on good customer service, and enforce that by firing bad employees who won't shape up.
Far too many chains have owners that only care about the profits and so many stores go to hell re things like customer service.
A 38 minute video? CNBC knows it's my lunch break lol
Zaxby’s needs to run their staff through Chick-fil-A operations training. Their food is good but very expensive and they almost always eff up your order for $12-$14.
That goes for the other FF restaurants
You are so right about that but KFC has a good sandwich and tenders 👍
This pops up on my recommendations as I order chick fil a through delivery
How KFC missed out I'll never understand
In India, their prices are now out of control.
@@sreerajr6470 in the US also
KFC's chicken tastes like cardboard box
@Ralph Depino
Yes, but why.
They did chicken first and didn't capitalize on it.
@Ralph Depino Yup, Popeye's the bomb
I still find Chickfila's sandwich the best and their drivethrus are so efficient. They have a very good product plus consistent excellent customer service.
Along with their sauce, never gets old.
I totally Agree 💯👍
@@emilianorosales235 dude... Even our partners get Old sometimes 😹😂
The lemonade 🍋
Na, Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich is better. I don't like the spicy sauce they use in chili fil a. But that's me I like spicy over the original.
Love the subtle marketing that will make many people who watched this crave fastfood
idk man 40 mins of straight chicken talk will make anyone crave a chicken sandwich.
@Eduardo mine is unintentional while theirs is very likely paid for advertisement done and researched by experts in marketing and psychology to make sure unsespecting viewers crave for fastfood. In fact one can argue that i am a victim of this same marketing given how it made be become a walking internet billboard not suspecting it until you pointed it out to me.
Are you familiar with The LaSalle?
Or maybe *The Shadowy Clown?*
I think it’s the quality, service, and efficiency that really sets chic-fil-a apart. The food is always hot and seemingly fresh, the drive thru is very efficient, and the employees are friendly and pleasant. Those fries are also something special!!
What share of demand for chicken from various restaurant and dining establishments including fast-food ones comes from Mom and Pop Diners?
@@musafawundu6718 no idea 🤷🏻♂️
d p: If the service is consistently good, that's a rarity in fast food places. The problem with many such places (when I used to eat that stuff) is that they're wildly inconsistent from visit to visit, re the behavior / competence of the employees the customers have to interact with.
@@rogergeyer9851 I agree. Most fast food is very inconsistent. Chic fil a is just a bit of an outlier due to the reasons I named in my original comment. And even they make mistakes and are inconsistent on occasion
@@maestro-zq8gu cool bro
“Breast meat is typically more expensive than wings”. Maybe this was true 10 years ago but obviously this person hasn’t been to a grocery store lately.
breast is dry AF don't like the stuff.
@@PHlophe you don’t cook it right
@@PHlophe in my country the cost of chicken breast went up and become higher than wings after the pandemic and to this day stays as the most expensive part per weight. I can buy wings half the price of the breasts. The problem is half of the wings are bones so i am paying almost same for the meat per weight.
@@PHlophe add very little water while cooking and problem solved.
Where do you live? The cost per pound of chicken breast is definitely more expensive than drum or wing. Perhaps you’re considering the bone, but if you look at the bone structure of any aves, it’s hollow and light.
They sold Chick-fil-A at my high school. It was kind of symbol that a poor kid like me had some money. Plus it tasted amazing. So still eat it twenty something years later.
Chik-Fil-A bags are like totems that people hold differently than other fast food bags. Glad to hear someone else saying it's a symbol.
@@kylesmith4572 what the hell am I reading…You’re taking pride in holding a fast food bag?
@@BL-mf3jp I take it you didn't grow up poor?
@@The2bdkid: In the US, I'm not buying that all that many "poor" people have so little access to fast food that they're "proud" to be seen with a fast food bag.
With all the US programs to support "the poor" and what even minimum wage is getting to be, it's just not at all credible.
Beef is stupidly expensive (really gotten absurd). Pork is still expensive (ever order bacon in a restaurant?). Chicken is cheap and versatile. It's not rocket science.
Chicken is also better for the environment.
Chic Fil A a net positive to humanity. Litteral W
Chicken also tastes 10x better
lb is the costliest in india
I've got a new neighbor that has several chickens but no roosters and they sell them at the farmers market
Imma be honest but the Chick Fil A Spicy Deluxe Pepper Jack chicken sandwich is amazing! 😳😋
I had that the other day- amazing!
😋
too bad i can never try that out
Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich is better and I don't even be eating fast food like that.
Agreed. I just wish it didn't take 3 of them to come close to filling me up. And wheat buns would be nice.
It is so funny, of customers eat more chicken because they think that it is more healthier than regular meat. It is simple.
If you make turkey sandwich , customers will buy it because it is even more healthier than chicken
Is turkey really more healthy than chicken?
@@Isaac-gh5ku Depends on what you define as healthy. If you're having white meat of either the calorie and fat counts are pretty similar, dark meat jumps a bit more for chicken. Turkey also needs a bit more to it to make it flavorful unlike chicken, meaning likely higher sodium counts. Turkey will almost always be better than beef, but grilled chicken isn't all too different than turkey health-wise. It's the fried stuff that makes chicken unhealthy and that's a lot more common than fried turkey.
Umm subway isnt doing that well...
Idc about it being healthy. It's just something different. Got tired of burgers honestly.
People don’t like chicken because it’s healthier lol they like it because it tastes good.
People like Chick-fil-A's chicken so much because it looks real it tastes real and it is real it doesn't look like a bunch of ground up chicken mashed together in a hamburger Patty like mc Donald does
I meannnn, You fry anything, and Americans will love it ❤🦅
This is exactly how i write my answers in exams..., nothing related to the question that is asked🙂
No controversy just great food
Why am I even watching this, I am vegetarian 😅
Out of envy
We indians still like watching these analysis videos
because you're craving some meat
🤤
You want a chicken veggie manufactured in a lab
Next video: How Obesity became an American problem.
Im shocked that Chic-fil-a is so much higher than Popeyes. Especially here in the Northeast Chic-fil-a has a very limited precense on the market compared to popeyes. Like I only have to drive 30 mins for a popeyes but over 3 hours to access a Chic-fil-a
Chick-Fil-A really didn't have a presence here in NYC until recently. Popeyes is only a 10 minute walk for me.
CFA has definitely made their target the south and mid west overall. These areas are less concerned over the fried aspects and are generally more predisposed to view a chain of their religious view positively.
They’re huge in the STL area where I live.
@@OopsFailedArt Religion aside, I've found the CFA sandwich very consistent. Popeye's is a hit or miss in many locations. CFA is like the in-n-out of chicken. Consistent quality and experience.
You’re right about CFA’s presence in the northeast. I’m from the NE & I had never heard of CFA until a few years ago & had my first one probably 3 years ago. I was shocked when I heard they’ve been around for several decades, I was shocked. There are now about 3-4 I can drive to and they’re all about 25 minutes away.
Its the opposite for me im in the north and chic fil a is 10 mins away and popeyes is 45 mins away
I've always stuck to McChickens when I was younger and still do,I like beef, but Hamburgers were never really my thing. My only concern is that chicken sandwiches are becoming more expensive as a result of the popularity, and their inexpensiveness was a decent pro before.
7:44 - *McDonalds* sold a *Southern style Chicken Sandwich* years before 2019. I did not realize back them it was made to compete with Chick-Fil-A.
Yes they did I’m glad you mentioned it! The chicken has never been the same quality as chic fil a. McDonald’s tosses the chicken in the same oil as the fries and half the time it’s over cooked. I honestly prefer the mcchicken over the premium sandwiches at McDonald’s
Yes I remembered it. I actually tried it because back in 2007 the lines for the 1 Chick-fil-A in my town always had long lines. So I tried the McDonald's version and was content. Then in 2012 I tried Chick-fil-A for the first time since the early 90s. I was blown away by the size of the sandwich and equally satisfied by the taste. I kicked myself for not trying this a lot sooner.
Try Hardee's there's is good
Imagine how many people will order chicken nuggets after watching this.
I liked the McChicken when it was $1, but McDonalds got greedy and now its like $2.50
This is why humanity will die. Greed of McChicken.
It's not greed. Its inflation
Pfft you thing that's bad a nugget here is like 5php thankfully though it's worth the size and taste
It depends on where you live
It's not just chicken. How it's prepared is why it's popular
I try not to think about what's in them. But looking back on when I use to eat McNuggets with Barbecue. Oh man it is good.
Chick Fil A stand strong.
CNBC put out a 38 minute video on chicken and they even made that interesting, nice.
Correction: Chicken is a WORLD obsession.
Popeye taste just like most small fast food & food truck crispy sandwich in uk and France..was surprise after I tasted it that it was what was making all the craze. Turn out what was familiar taste to most European was new to american
Where are you getting your crispy chicken sandwich in france? I don't see much of that where I am (which is admittedly pretty rural, haha)
imo, their basically the same as everywhere else. I much preferr Chic fil A though
I LOVE these longer videos
Stellar reporting. Thank you CNBC.
We eat chicken more on average because it's cheaper. And that's when you buy it at the store. Chicken is cheaper than beef. These fast food places sell you chicken, but it's priced as much as a burger. Meh, I made this comment in response to 9:58.
Looks like you get more chicken than beef in the sandwich.
@TheBooban It's about the same amount 6-8 ounces depending on the restaurant. The shape of the chicken and the extra bready crust makes it look way bigger than a burger.
In an alternative universe: " Groceries sales decreased tremendously the previous year".
The McDonald’s chicken sandwich is a complete flop. Doesn’t even come close to a Chick-fil-A deluxe chicken sammich.
It's America!!! We love to eat. From chicken to gators. And we eat them like we have free healthcare
I’m glad I’m watching this on a Saturday 😂
Popeyes is always hit or miss. Chick-fil-A I have yet to have a bad meal. Chick-fil-A can have 10 times the cars outside and still flow faster than any other drive thru and manage to always get the order right.
Agree. The KFC And Popeyes sandwiches can be very good, but it depends on where. Chic Fil A is basically always a fantastic sandwich
One of the most mistreated animals in the world next to pigs. Like a horror movie.
Tastes good though
Don't care and Didn't asked
I live for this one fast food restaurant 🐔
Love this video, thank you so much!!!
the thing I hate the most about my country is we don't have a single Chick Fil-A branch, I've spent the last two months trying to find a place that offers a chicken sandwich like those ones of this video, it helped me to forget other addictions I had, chicken makes miracles
Make it at home.
joseafalvel: I presume (from context) you mean county, not country? Small town living can be great, but lack of choices re where to eat is a REAL downside if you like to eat out a lot.
Now this is news I can get behind ! I love that shredded lettuce and mayo mix. !!!
Gotta give Zaxby’s some more credit for their delicious chicken sandwich.
0:30 Correction: Chic Fil A sandwich does not come with mayo
Also, I loved fast food chicken and Popeye's before all the craziness
Even when you ask for it they NEVER put it on the sandwich... You get mayo sachets.
Even when you ask for it they NEVER put it on the sandwich... You get mayo sachets.
Popeyes is good but idk what they do to their employees cuz not only does my order 3 out of 4 times come out wrong they always be looking tired/grumpy af
Lol grumpy af sounds about right
The thing that fascinates me about Chick-fil-A is the consistency of their employees & how freaking nice/helpful they are! I honestly don't get it...
It’s a cult! They also threaten their family if they aren’t like that!
It's also..questionable.
Pay people well and treat them well and they will be happy. If they are happy, they are nice. Simple
Other restaurants should really do this. Nice servers mean that customers are more likely to return. More profit.
It's because they're very judgemental when hiring. If you have any tattoos showing on your arms they will not hire you. I tried last year they denied me only because of my tattoos which are Roman numerals for my brothers birthday and mine
@@thegreatfreesharkofknowled2480 odd, seen plenty of employees who have tattoos but they try to cover them with sleeves but you can still see them poking out
I remember a while ago when this very channel put out a video when this 'beef' first started, and at the time it seemed like it wouldn't be a big deal, but this is a needed follow-up piece.
This made me mad hungry real quick
Popeye chicken sandwich are a mess. Everytime I've ordered one it's made in mess. Chic fil a has much better consistency across all stores.
Fun fact: Burger King’s chicken sandwiches are loaded with sodium , one of there chicken sandwiches has 4,770 mg of sodium in one!! Damn
IKR that’s crazy
4770mg makes it sound somewhat worse than a tea-spoon of sodium per burger which is what it is.
Interesting! I have learned something new today . Thanks for the uploading .
Chicken invaded US. Now everyone speaks chicken language.
When prepared and served in a healthy manner, chicken is an excellent source of protein and nutrients. Whenever chicken is portrayed in the media it is deep fried and smothered in fat.
This was oddly so entertaining and really, really made me crave a chicken sandwich lmao
When I first moved to the US in 2014 my mom and I ate beef burgers at McDonald's in the airport. I don't remember the last time I did this since I almost always eat at Chick Fil A at my local airport
Oh Jiminy Crickets.... oh Chick FIL A..... oh Jiminy Crickets!
I love how they talk about this like some gang related drug war
The spicy nacho chicken sandwhich is just proof this simulation has good qualities
0:16 that's Karl
@1:28 it's notable that the customers returned back to Chic-fil-a afterwards and now they are more busy than ever.
The southern part of America has been eating chicken since 1776. It took a while for the other states to understand how good southern food tastes 😋.
I really want a chicken burger now
sandwich***
I remember back in uni, the school eating area had chick fil a, McD, and Panda express.
Everyone waited in line for chick fil a, including me, their line was probably like 25~35x the other 2 combined.
I'd take the Panda Express in a heartbeat. Much better than a greasy yet dry piece of chicken on an even greasier bun.
@@uweschroeder Oh yeah. Disgusting, oil-soaked, batter-fried questionable meat.
@@riproar11 I've been to a Chick-Fil-A once in my life but I don't remember that it was battered. Isn't their chicken breaded? Batter wouldn't be crispy.
@@uweschroeder Sorry, my bad on the wording if I am incorrect on it that it is breaded. Many fried chicken recipes show dipping the chicken in a batter mixture. Batter is just as crispy as the best fish and chips are made throughout the UK. In the US, when I visit friends in upstate New York, there is a restaurant that deep fries calamari with a very thin batter fry on the outside, and it is SO good! You don't experience that nauseous feeling from eating more than you should have fried food.
I just can't believe they use "chicken wars" in a serious context, it's like a comedy of a news report and not an actual one.
The misinformation given on fat being bad for you is what pushed Chicken to the top.
I love Popeyes chicken tenders so I can only
imagine the sandwich!
“Chicken nuggets revenue penetration “ lol
i love the history behind it ❤❤
And also, a huge issue with this is that they don't make chicken sandwiches/burgers gluten free. And gluten free breaded chicken can be delicious. They just need to serve this and they get even MORE customers.
In India non-veg is synonymous with Chicken 😄
Everything taste like chicken 😂😂
S/O to Mr Cathy for standing on principles and maintaining his morals. And for not being a sucker and folding to "them people ".
Popeyes only works in the US, but it hasn't been a successful franchise overseas
It has been doing incredibly well in Canada
Which is strange because their chicken is superior to KFC's.
Gotta love 🥰 that chicken from Popeyes!!! Real talk
So my family and I Got stuck in the Philippines during the Pandemic and we were craving Popeyes Chicken Sandwich......well Philippines is known for Jollibee and its chicken and I tried to suggest to them (the nearest franchise near me) that they should do a chicken sandwich too.....2 years later they now have one and it's really good. Hope this "war" goes on and maybe In N Out might join in lol......
that’s stupid
Love this content! 🇨🇴
Popularity only came about when the spicy chicken sandwich was introduced. You can say the d same for the Flaming hot Cheetos and Doritos.
Is so amazing how just chicken can make people behave so weird
Why does that “Holy Chicken” documentary keep coming to mind?
Its so weird how 2019 was the year Americans realized chicken sandwiches exist
Chick-fil-A is my favorite fast food restaurant!
There’s no mayo on Chick-fil-A’s chicken sandwich. You’re a news outlet check basic facts.
Every fiber of my schooling says chicken is FARRRRRRR more sustainable a meat than pork and beef. 9 outta 10 times my stomach and taste buds prefer a quarter pounder all the way w/ cheese...
I'll get the chicken 8 outta 10 times, imagining the children of the future.
idk man. Beef is good sometimes, but the way these people prepare chicken is insane. Definitely better.
I hear ya, but also think taste is highly subjective. Biodiversity is important, cattle (or perhaps more accurate, wild buffalo) have their place in the North American ecosystem, wouldn't you agree?
Domestic cattle bread on cut & burn forrest not so much..
It'd be best on the env (and likely our bodies) if we didn't consume animal flesh (including poultry) all together.
My point was society as a whole would likely benefit from trying to reduce consumption of the most water/land intensive livestock.
I also think it's shocking the percentage of centenarians that consume mostly vegetarian diets. Big Meat constantly markets to us in the US and not many talk about it.
Chicken is pretty much widely accessible, from grocery stores to wing places and places like KFC, Popeyes, Zaxbys and everything else. Don’t know what to have for dinner? Stop and get some chicken. Don’t know what to cook for Sunday dinner? Chicken. And look at how many ways you can prep it…fry, bake/roast, boil, grill, sauté…It’s all about versatility
I see u with the Howlin Ray's shots lol
Wendy's has always had a bomb chicken sandwich. They were in the game first.
Theirs is good but I don't like the hamburgers
Nothing can beat Chick-fil-A ! 👌
Try home-cooked!
@@diannt9583 not everyone can cook like you. Why don't you prepare some and send them over to my place haha!
I love chicken 🐔🍗 forever ♾️
I love the wings and smothered chicken breast. I never had chic fillet.
I remember reading somewhere that when you see chicken fingers on a menu, it could be any part of the chicken. But if you saw chicken tenders, it could only be called that if they used the tenderloin of the chicken. From then on I just stuck to chicken tenders because at least I knew what part of the chicken it was.
Andy O: It's not so much which part of the chicken but all that deep frying / breading that's the really bad thing for your health over time, plus lots of sodium isn't great either.
