Chick-fil-A Again Tops KFC As Top Chicken Chain

Chick-fil-A widened its lead over rival KFC as the No. 1 chicken chain in the U.S. last year.

Preliminary data from food industry researcher Technomic shows that Atlanta-based Chick-Fil-A held the lead because its locations are much busier, even though there are far fewer of them.

Chick-fil-A first surpassed KFC as the top chicken chain in 2012. KFC is still much bigger globally.

KFC, owned by Yum Brands Inc., has been struggling in recent years, despite a variety of new menu items like boneless chicken pieces and snack cups designed to fit in a car cup holder.

  3. All fast food should be a last resort in the event of starvation. None of it is healthy or good for you. A Chik fil A chicken sandwich has almost 1400mg of sodium (over 50% of daily allowance). Couple that with some fries and cigarette afterwards is a recipe for a heart attack. Even the big mac has less sodium (970 mg) as does a double quarter pounder w/ cheese (1280mg.).

  5. KFC serves pigeon sized parts. Maybe it's seagull, I don't know. 3 bites and you're done.
