I think it’s something that McDonald’s has substituted the word “fried” for “crispy.” Sounds healthier.

I get the crispy chicken salad to make fried chicken sound healthier. Usually I don’t touch the lettuce

When I worked at Chick-fil-A, they insisted never call it a fried chicken sandwich. Always make the distinction grilled or crispy.
