The look:Unsurprisingly, the spicy McCrispy looks just like the regular McCrispy.
It has the same segmented bun and a decent-sized piece of crispy chicken.

It was a really satisfying bite.
There’s an an additional bun slice in the middle.
The sandwich has two layers, two chicken patties, and sliced cheese coming out of the bun.
it’s possible for you to also see the shredded lettuce and some sauce from glancing at the creation.
I loved all the flavors in this sandwichfrom the cheese to the pickles to the sauce.
Plus, cheese should really come on every sandwich and that addition really gave this meal a comforting feel.
I was able to taste and enjoy every element of the sandwich.
