They tested spicy nuggets and spicy chicken minis but decided there wasnt enough market for them.

I posted this on the F&D board...

When the spicy sandwich first came out, CFA owners/operators were a little upset because they had to dedicate a fryer to cooking the spicy fillets because the spice mix would contaminate the oil and you couldn't cook the regular chicken in the same one.

I was under the impression that the reason the spicy biscuit was introduced, and the pilots done for spicy nuggets and spicy minis, was to make better use of the "spicy" fryer.

If that was true, I don't understand going back to that original issue - unless they have figured out a way to cook the spicy fillets without contaminating the oil with the spicy additives.
