Glad to see them adding some modern updates to my son’s favorite chicken strips. Perhaps this will entice reluctant people to try QS spots who might otherwise think them boring.
My daughter and I love the chicken tenders at Disney World. Out of the 13 new ones that are being added soon, I would only try one of them. The rest are awful sounding to me for different reasons. Now if Disney World would get rid of Heinz Honey Mustard and go back to the brand they had a couple of years ago, all would be right with the World! lol
