From CNBC:
The southern-style chicken sandwich will also be axed except in some markets, the Midwest franchise executive said. Additionally, local level operators can choose to remove the buffalo ranch McChicken or grilled onion cheddar burger from the menu.
McDonald's has been criticized for adding too many items to its menu as customer service has slowed dramatically.
The menu has grown 42.4% in the past seven years, to 121 items from 85 items in 2007, according to The Wall Street Journal .
The chain's average drive-thru wait is 3 minutes, 9.5 seconds, which is the longest average wait time in at least 15 years, according to a study by QSR Magazine.
