5 Most Popular Fast Foods in the US

3. Chicken Sandwich

Score: 24

Chicken sandwiches appear on almost 48% of American menus, making them one number third on the list of the most popular fast food items in the US. The rising demand for this meal has grown hand-in-hand with the increasing consumption of chicken meat in the country. A survey of Mcdonalds Corp (NYSE:MCD) in 2021 revealed that their average restaurant sells up to 170 chicken sandwiches daily. Popeyes used to be the most popular option for chicken sandwiches, but the product being launched by bigger chains has shifted market revenues.
