Chicken Big Mac lands, and wow!

The chicken has landed.
McDonald's Canada launched the Chicken Big Mac March 7 and it's worth checking out.
This sandwich is a godsend – a new taste sensation reminiscent of an old favourite. The new Chicken Big Mac, features the iconic Big Mac® goodness with a chicken twist.
The chicken has slightly less breading than the McChicken, and it's a really nice, fresh, top-quality patty. It actually lends itself to the Mac dressing and I have no doubt it will become customers' new go-to favourite.
Dare I say, I've found a replacement to the venerable Big Mac?
“We know that Canadians have been hacking the Chicken Big Mac in creative ways over the years, eager to get their hands on the real thing,” said Alyssa Buetikofer, Chief Marketing Officer, McDonald's Canada. “To these guests, we love your passion and your hacking days are officially behind you: the Chicken Big Mac is finally here. But it's only for a limited time, so try it while you can.”
With classic toppings – Big Mac sauce, fresh lettuce, processed cheddar cheese, tangy pickles – the Chicken Big Mac features two chicken patties made with 100% Canadian raised seasoned chicken breast in a crispy, light-tasting coating on a freshly toasted sesame seed bun.
Unfortunately the Chicken Big Mac will only be here for a limited time. You gotta get one and try it out. If this becomes a new, permanent menu item, I may just visit McD's more often.
