New Food! Chicken McBites


McDonald's decided to jump into the bite size chicken arena with their Chicken McBites.  Anyone familiar with KFC's popcorn chicken will instantly know what I'm talking about and probably even mistaken this McDonald's version for that.

The taste is nothing new to regulars of this fast food chain.  It tastes exactly like their Chicken Selects except that it's obviously smaller.  That's fine and all, but like all other bite size chicken out there, each piece is more flour than actual chicken meat.  This is good for McDonald's because that means they're cheaper to make and when priced at $3.49 for a regular (in Manhattan) they can have a larger profit margin for each box sold.

In the end, I think these McBites could adequately satisfy a quick snack fix.  If you need more than just a snack, but like their taste, you're probably better off getting Chicken Selects instead.
