5 Highest Quality Fast Food Chains in the US

3. KFC

ACSI Score: 81

When KFC entered a market dominated by hamburgers, it caused a massive shift by popularizing an alternative item: fried chicken. Even when the company launched other items like burgers and wraps, its fried chicken remained at the core of each of those offerings. The company was the first that managed to turn fried chicken into ‘fast food’, something that was generally cooked with much slower methods. KFC also reportedly uses chilled, not frozen, chicken for its dishes, which makes them high-quality and delicious.
