BBQ chicken wings @ Mcdonalds

The chicken products at McDonalds are burgers, coated chicken wings, and nuggets.

This time, they have come out with BBQ grilled wings.

I was surprised it tasted much nicer than the honey grilled wings at KFC.

The honey-grilled wings at KFC have been grilled to the extent that the chicken is slightly tough and the skin is a bit like plastic film. The KFC version is also sweeter. Being fair the texture of the wings also depends on if they were just done or been sitting there for a while.

The wings here taste almost the same as KFC’s honey wing, but they are also spicy, same as the hot wings at McD’s.
The wings are separated into mid-joints and drumettes which is more convenient than the one piece wing at KFC (a whole wing from tip to mid-joint).

The wings at McD’s are much juicier and the skin is thin and tender that it rips easily during consumption.
The bones are disjointed easily too, making it easy to eat without meat being stuck on the joints.
There is a slight spiciness just like the hot wings, but not as spicy.
It would have been good if there was a wedge of lemon (but impossible for a fast food chain like McD’s) or even lemon flavouring on the chicken.
The product shot is relatively the same as the real thing, but the lemon I thought was a bit misleading, since people would associated the taste with it.
