I've always been a fan of biscuits and chicken but in a separate terms-sense. So when McDonald's and a few other fast food restaurants came up with the chicken biscuit combo for breakfast, I was really skeptical. Chicken and waffles taste good. Chicken and biscuits taste good for dinner but I just couldn't imagine putting jelly on my biscuit with a piece of chicken in between the biscuit. So one morning at work, I decided to go ahead and try it. My parents always make fun of me when it comes to food because if I've never had something, I'll always say in a skeptical voice "...I'll try it." Since I had walked to McDonald's, I had to carry the bag with the chicken biscuit inside with thoughts racing through my head: "Will the chicken be too salty?" "Is the chicken bland or well seasoned?" "Is the biscuit overcooked?" "Will two packets of jelly be enough?" Etc. I finally arrive back at my desk and unfold the wrapper and snapped the pic you see attached to this blog entry. It looked delightful. As soon as I reached to open a packet of jam (I only asked for 2 packets -grape jam), there's an incoming call. And then another, and another and then 3 more calls. Finally, the phones "pause" and I rabidly tear open the two packets of jam at once and gently pour them onto the the center of the chicken so that when I pressed the top back on, the jam would spread evenly across the top of the chicken. As I pick the top part of the biscuit up to place it back onto the top of the newly lathered chicken, the phone rings. *sighs* So I answer it and then more come streaming in. Finally, I got a break and that "eff it" attitude. I took one bite and savored the bite to assess it's worthiness. It was great but as I tried to finish eating the rest, my mouth felt "doughy" because the two packets of jam was not enough for the doughy biscuit. So I finished my sandwich for what it was worth and washed it down with Sprite since I don't really see chicken being a breakfast staple and orange juice was not even on my mind for personal reasons. At the end of the day, I must say that although a chicken biscuit for breakfast seemed strange at first, it was still delish minus the fact that maybe one more packet of jam would have made it more blissful....
