Which Fast Food Spicy Chicken Sandwich is Best?

There's a war going on in the fast food industry, with everyone rolling out new versions of a chicken sandwich to satisfy a rising demand. Each outlet has at least one "spicy" chicken offering, sometimes several of them. If you love a spicy chicken sandwich, maybe you should do your own testing. But if it's an occasional treat, or you dread the prospect of wasting your money on a lunch you'll regret, read up on what other folks are telling us. Dane Rivera tried four of the major offering from outlets you know and (might) love, all in the same session, while blindfolded so he wouldn't know which sandwich he was eating. The contenders were: Chick-fil-A's Spicy Deluxe, the Chicken Slider (Hot) from Dave’s Hot Chicken, Popeyes Spicy Chicken Sandwich, and the Hot Chicken Sandwich from Shake Shack.

First he thoroughly describes the experience of each sandwich without naming them, like an on-the-spot review before each was revealed to him. Then he gives us his relative rankings. Spoiler: they were all delicious, even after they cooled down while the blind test was arranged. The upshot is that the spicy chicken sandwich wars have already been won by consumers. But they were nevertheless ranked, and you can read the details on each at Uproxx.
