“At Top 500 FSRs, chicken sandwiches and wraps totaled 413 items listed at 176 chains as of 2011; although this reflects a slight dip in menu items over the past couple of years (down from 432 offerings in 2009), chicken sandwiches remain overwhelmingly prevalent and outpace the second most-frequently menued sandwich variety, turkey, by hundreds of items.”
