Fried chicken sandwiches aren't a new thing, but they have taken on a new life in the fast food world following the release of Popeyes' then-coveted chicken sandwich. 

Now, you expect to see them on the menu at most restaurants. And while Popeyes' sandwich is pretty no-frills, the quality of the ingredients have pushed chains to make their chicken sandwich more than an afterthought on a menu dominated by burgers. On November 9, National Fried Chicken Sandwich Day will drive home just how far chicken sandwiches have come at chains. Tons will be offering deals to get you through the door, including Popeyes, Zaxby's, Jollibee, Farmer Boys, and many others. 

Here are the best deals you'll find on National Fried Chicken Sandwich Day.
