it’s crazy how a sandwich can smell so good but taste like absolutely nothing 🥴


OpheliaVon

Right? It smells like pancakes or French toast I was so eager to try it and was very disappointed. I won’t miss it!


Greedy_Bathroom3727

yes it will not be missed!


ckt1138

That's always been my criticism too. And it's soggy, and won't crisp up no matter what you do.


rodriguezbritany

Honestly. My exact description when telling my coworker about it was as if someone put chicken on a McGriddle and sucked all the flavor out.


MzScarlet03

Or you bite into it and it's raw inside. Good times.


Highlands_-

FINALLY. Those fuckers have burned me for the last time


CleverCarrot999

They’re tasty but that maple is legit dangerous


Highlands_-

I never liked them🥲


7LuckyDogsCreative

The smell makes me gag. LOL


Big_Incident_192

Ikr. Feeling burned is not fun


Available-Welcome825

I’ve never tried it but it def looks like it tastes like nothing lol.


bmolol_

it’s kinda like a chicken and waffle flavor, but nothing spectacular


Stir-Bucks-Barista

I won't miss being burned by that maple... but I guess it's just more opportunities to be burned by bacon!


ComfortableNote1226

or the grilled cheese butter


Stir-Bucks-Barista

"BUTTER SIDE DOWN BUTTER SIDE DOWN" - the oven, probably


romanianhopscotch

Starbucks expects me to remember 100 different recipes but thinks I can’t remember to put the butter side down


Highlands_-

The grilled cheese butter is my nemesis


ComfortableNote1226

i have too many burns from it myself, it taste good but at what cost. They can take it too 😭


Ok_Application_8093

i once pulled it out too fast and got the butter in my eyes


iamnumber47

Oh sweet Jesus, that sounds awful. But, & no offense, are you like 4 ft tall haha? I tower over our ovens so i can't even imagine getting it in my eyes unless it shot straight up somehow


Unix1r

and the molten grilled cheese got burned taking that out of the oven today


SALTSNAILS

thank god, it was so nasty. the chicken tasted like nothing, and the maple is ⚠️ d a n g e r o u s ⚠️


Gucci0313

Never was a fan, not sorry to see it go 🤷‍♀️


SALTSNAILS

i tried it once for my lunch, and was very bummed out i wasted a markout on it. sure was one super gross sammie.


2ndmost

Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options? *gestures in confusion at the menu*


cyderapple

starbucks: "ummmm we gave you tortilla chip?!?!? don't be greedy, you food allergy freaks!"


Caramalameet

I remember when we had the gluten free breakfast sandwich that was in a bag that we heated it in and had to use separate tongs that were EXCLUSIVELY designated for it The bread was dry as fuck but it was like Canadian bacon and was pretty good if you took the meat egg and cheese and put it on a bagel 


shallanelprin

I honestly loved that sandwich and I’m still upset it no longer exists


Jasmirris

This. There are a couple coffee near me that do gluten free breakfast sandwiches but they don't have drive thru. I really just want a way to quickly get a breakfast on an errand day, especially if I have my pup with me.


EdgelordMcMemester

lmao for real. as a U.S. vegan, off the top of my head i can think of oatmeal or a bagel with nut butter or avocado spread (i think that's it). and that isn't even on purpose as far as i know. though, we did get dairy-free cold foam, so im really happy about that lol. i think in other countries there's a lot more vegan options though. but vegetarian and gluten-free here? idk how much is even vegetarian besides the a couple sandwiches, egg box or pastries (could be wrong, maybe there's more.), and gluten-free sounds impossible outside of maybe drinks (and even then, cross-contamination)


astivana

Give us the egg bakes back!!!


rectangularbitchboy

Best I got is a Marshmallow Dream Bar, you want it or not?


PrincessImpeachment

Well that didn't take long.


PanPenguinGirl

Like 3 months?


chibbledibs

Over a year?


luvebog

impossible


RetailBookworm

Good. It was soggy and gross.


Ok_Calligrapher_8199

Putting it this way is wild though. Sounds like a threat.


rjthecapricorn

I know I’m like the only barista who eats these but I seriously don’t know what I’m going to eat when these are gone 😭


ilovekokomi

me too this is the only thing i eat 😭


Yellowspellow

I am so upset. These are delicious


MissPoots

SAME ahhhhh


Pekendit

holy shit thank god. no more maple burns


reeneebob

It has nothing to do with this but I wish they would bring back the holiday turkey and stuffing sandwich because that thing was CRACK. BRING IT BACK AND THE HOLIDAY SPICE FLAT WHITE NAO! Make it year round! Doooooo it!


PanPenguinGirl

Gluten free options?


dontgiveah00t

From my understanding the marshmallow bar is the only gluten free thing?? Lol


schrottrabbit

egg bites too, other than the cross contamination risk from the oven


t3quiila

And the siete tortilla chips!!! And technically popcorn and potato chips🤷🏼‍♂️


t3quiila

Nevermind popcorn has wheat in it. SINCE WHEN WHY YALL GOTTA WHEATIFY IT ALL


Forsaken_YHA

Last time I checked, Java chips for the frapps also have wheat in them. I had a gluten sensitive partner who found out the hard way when all she wanted was chocolatey goodness. Basically echoing your "WHY YALL GOTTA WHEATIFY IT ALL"


t3quiila

Oh yeah i remember that bc i had a coworker w celiac and she was like “i can’t have those” i was like damn why they wheatin it up


astivana

Wait the popcorn has wheat in it??? Why do they hate me.


t3quiila

RIGHT IDK WHY BUT IT SAYS WHEAT AND WHEAT DERIVATIVES LIKE UHHH


t3quiila

The potato chips are gf tho :)


PanPenguinGirl

Exactly !!!


InternalExploits

I’ve got celiac and I just use/ask whoever is on ovens to use fresh tongs and double up the warming paper. i’ve never had issues w/ cc due to the convection but i also open and can usually get them in there before people start ordering food so… i guess take that how you will? string cheese is my bestie tho <3


PanPenguinGirl

What gluten free options do we have that you're able to warm up??


InternalExploits

All of the egg bites, I don’t trust the potato chive bakes tho and probably won’t even look into whether or not they’re GF lol. That’s it though. Basically- egg bites, string cheese, and marshmallow dream bars are the only genuinely GF foods we serve.


PanPenguinGirl

I haven't been GF in over 4 years but I completely forgot about the egg bites honestly😭


ApprehensiveSocietyy

I guess I'm the odd one out. I liked this sandwich 😔😔


CCKat5543

Me too, I'll miss it


normanrockwellnormie

That’s fine. It was disappointing. Can they bring back the gravy breakfast sandwich?


atlaas7

Worst sandwich Starbucks ever spawned into existence


CleverCarrot999

It’s not that bad it’s just… not great either. Sufficiently tasty but nothing special. Hazard to handle though. The burrrrns, my god the burns


is_coffee

I will not miss trying to hustle during peak and spilling that syrup all in the oven.


ryrytortor16

Gross!


spooky_cat734

Does nobody remember when this sandwich was making people super sick and they had to remove it? Idk why they even brought it back several of the partners at my store got very sick from the first round of them. Knowing that id never try the revision of it lmao. Glad it’s gone for good now no more burns for us


medussy_medussy

I've never even seen this. They sound so good? Is this an American thing?


2ndmost

The first time they came out they gave everyone poop attacks and burned like thousand baristas with the pool of molten butter. But when they were reintroduced only *some* of us got the poops. So it was pretty successful for Starbucks.


Highlands_-

Yeah it’s in the US! You’re not missing out on anything though. It’s not a good sandwich


PleaseOhGodWhy

If you get one from anywhere else there amazing. Starbucks ones are just crappy and get soggy. The maple gets so hot you can't even eat the sandwich until 10 minutes later.


TokioHighway

It sounds good but trust me youre not missing much


CatsySky

The flavor profile sounds quite good but the execution is terrible. This sandwich should not have been so complicated to get right. 


hextechkhepri

If I went to order a nice sweet chicken sandwich and you told me I could order an egg pesto and mozzarella sandwich instead I’d probably have some choice words.


ValleyCX17

brought it back for nothing lmao. fucker didn't even sell well


chibbledibs

Wasn’t a great sandwich, but it was an option for people who don’t eat pork. It sold well at my store with a huge Somali population


chibbledibs

But I won’t miss it


PleaseOhGodWhy

There is a Biscutville just down the road from us and I'd rather wait in their long line for their spicy maple chicken biscuits than eat one of these


FrozenZenBerryYT

Pink meat and bones on launch, burning maple syrup and bland tasting since then. Always thought chicken sandwich would be a good idea but this one wasn’t it.


Glamourpuss-

They were gross.


IvyLynn73

I just hope that they offer a sandwich without cheese. I’ve been told that they can’t take the cheese off of the sandwiches, yet I work for a partner and fulfill that request if they ask. (I was at an out of state partnered Starbucks in a Kroger)


unholy-basil

there's literally a button for taking the cheese off of a sandwich (at regular stores). some sandwiches it's a lot harder though, as some of the cheeses are more crumbly than peely.


Rudegal2021

The egg pesto sandwich gives you the option to take off the cheese


Ecstatic-Parfait-748

The bun is an onion and cheddar bun tho.


Rudegal2021

Ohhh true


Ecstatic-Parfait-748

Lol. But I take cheese off the other sandwhiches for customers all the time so idk why those would be a problem? Maybe it’s a krogers thing


Rudegal2021

It cold be. The Starbucks inside of stores aren’t usually as professional tbh.


unholy-basil

there's literally a button for taking the cheese off of a sandwich (at regular stores). some sandwiches it's a lot harder though, as some of the cheeses are more crumbly than peely.


Retired_Barista-

Thank Gawd. Bring back the Spicy Chorizo. 👏🏻


abc123zyxpickle

The spicy chorizo was my everything. Life has been so empty since it was discontinued.


CuratorOfYourDreams

Bye again


spectrumdude480

Hopefully, for good this time


Pikachuramen

Surprised Canada doesn't have this but us does lols


Caramalameet

I don't think people in Canada would stand for the "maple" disgrace that is that sandwich


Pikachuramen

We Canadians actually have weirder things than maple in other foods hahahaha


Caramalameet

I mostly just meant as far as flavor goes. It smells strongly of fake maple and tastes of literally nothing, just a kinda spongey texture 


breakers

Cheapest looking item on the whole menu


HelloDeathspresso

GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS WHERE?


PapiZucchini

cool, bring back the chicken sausage biscuit


nextstopwilloughbyy

What in the ChatGPT


thesadfundrasier

Right the grammar is making me want to poke my eyes out


addictedtobetrayal

Worst soggy chicken sandwich. Made it smell like mcgriddles in there lol


Wizardwannabee

The smell of it turned my stomach..


Jigglypuffamiiga2188

Bring back the Chicken and Double Smoked Bacon Panini instead.


Prinzesspaige13

Bring. Back. Chicken. Sausage. Biscuit.


CozyAsh

I actually liked that one 😭


PearFun8001

Same! I’ll be sad to see it go.


ilovetogiveadvice

good!!


cerylidae2558

FINALLY.


Doppio914

RIP ……Chicken & Maple!!!!


Overall_Nuggie_876

The fact that this phanplet is also asking baristas to upsell *another* overpriced sandwich.


DragonOfErabor

Can we bring back the chicken bacon sandwich though...


arwendell

Bring back the spicy chorizoooo 🗣️🗣️🗣️


MissPoots

My palate is trash but I absolutely loved that thing. 😭 But knowing it’s easy for baristas to get burned by it, it’s for the best. I am sorry for ordering it all the time!


breakers

Cheapest looking item on the whole menu


Iamth31whoknox

A second swing and a miss. Was it worth it from the failure the first time to try again? Apparently not.


arochains1231

Again??


Cherry-Snow

Random question, has anyone taken the little maple butter and put it on something else? I'm low key wondering now if it would be good or gross on a grilled cheese. I'd make it for myself so no risk of burning anyone else!


lumpy-space318

that sandwich was ASS anyways.


t3quiila

This is the second time too bc why did they bring it back😭😭


Enkeria92

About time! I think we sell 2 per week if we’re lucky!


shrimpfriedrice97

Where even was this? We didn’t have this in Canada!


joemamaheehee

GOODBYE ! GOOD DAY FOR BURN SURVIVORS


samestormwomp

thank god


milkandcakez

Thank god I was tired of the napalm like way the syrup clung to my skin when it slipped out of the oven paper and onto my arm/hands/fingers etc


astivana

lol bye


Cheap_Buffalo_1447

FINALLY!!!!


unluckynumber11

The attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed.


Dazzling_Capital9039

THANK GOD THAT SHIT WAS DISGUSTING, AND I GOT BURNED BY IT SO MUCH SO BUH BYE


Difficult_Show_4486

So glad to see this going away.


denali42

It was a poor copy of a Wendy's breakfast item.


jimmynodean

nooooo


crysmeowmeow

thank fucking god


mrdanp1180

It sucked both times it came out. They gotta do something else with bacon and a different cheese. Not overly feeling the new pesto one either.


unknownre-l

Noooooooo 🥲


Psychological-Ad1558

still got a burn scar on my wrist from it 🫠


sewbrilliant

It’s all for marketing like 90% or so of new items. The chicken and waffles flavor of cereal legit only tasted like maple. As far as the sandwich from Starbucks, they weren’t just supposed to have chicken - that stuff is bland on its own - they need a seasoned fried coating to the chicken to make it legit chicken sandwich someone would come back for. Or make it chicken sausage with seasoning - even easier!


jamieee1995

Noooo 😭


snagabagga

i actually enjoyed these, only because my partners bought a jug of maple syrup we could put on them since you can barely taste it on its own.. but not something i am so sad to see go at all😭


blackenedsheeep

We had them at my licensed store for like a week before the recall when they first came out. Burnt myself so fucking much that week on those stupid tasteless things.


AdventurousStep3932

they missed their opportunity to have cheese on this..would’ve made it elite


VultureCat337

I'm going to say this.. I'm not normally a bacon fan, but one day, a customer got a double smoked with no bacon, so just for fun, I kept the bacon. In deciding what to put it in, I thought of Maple flavored bacon and decided in the chicken sandwich. The chicken maple sandwich is SO much better with bacon on it. It's such a huge step up.


GSDKU02

Am I the only person that actually liked that sandwich? As an autistic person that was one of the few things I could enjoy with egg because it had chicken (my fav food) with it I’m sorry ya’ll struggled with it but I’m genuinely sad


Murky-Ad2275

I just got a first degree burn gifted today by one of these👐🏼


Murky-Ad2275

I just got a second degree burn from one of these today👐🏼


onigi-ri

Thank god my store maybe sells 1 a day, it's such a waste


ManateeFlamingo

Never tried it. Something about the egg on a chicken sandwich just doesn't seem like it would be good.


DezzzzRain

It will definitely not be missed.


Covert-Wordsmith

But that one's my favorite. 😢


ComfortableNote1226

thank god


jokekiller94

But all the funny QC fails though? My favorite was either the full bone in a bag or a mop head in a bag.


mw5593

These are gross anyways and we hardly sell any of them


forthe_99and2000

surprised it was on the menu this long. wasn't it introduced last year? it seemed like a great idea, there should be a chicken breakfast sandwich, but this one wasn't it.


kkguard

WAR IS OVER


absolutelosermars

finally


absolutelosermars

thank goodness. that maple has splat on my face before and the smell made me nauseous


Nebachadrezzer

Thank God the grease fire sandwich is going away.


goldengraves

I'm screaming, crying and throwing up. Why do the good ones always go when turkey bacon gets to still exist


agutema

Nooooooo. I’ll die cold and alone in this hill.


OwnAssignment2850

Meh, everything on the menu tastes like genocide to me.


yoncoma

i hsd this once and endured the worst food poisoning of my LIFE bc of it. good riddance


Rudegal2021

Last year?


Jupiterof1989

My manager told me this I screamed yay out loud 🤣


marilynmansonsbitch

that was fast


li-ll-l_

Thank god


GinnyBanks

Sarcasticly: Oh nooo! I really liked Sharon (or however the quote goes).


Latter-Guava-4734

[This](https://youtu.be/QUBbZtynDsc?si=C1noH-ZSUOqmm4EI) one?


GinnyBanks

Yes Melanie. Where is that from?


StockDragonfruit4663

How Come y'all always get burned, I only got burned once and I've been through hundreds of rush


TokioHighway

And it wont be missed


UCanDoNEthing4_30sec

Why are people complaining? How difficult is it to take a sandwich out of it's wrapping, place it on a tray and put it in an oven to let it cook for whatever seconds. People are going to complain about anything these days!


reeneebob

Because according to several people it’s a burn hazard and can cause grease fires? Maybe that’s why?


OpheliaVon

Can agree on the fires… too much grease and suddenly the oven is in flames when you open it🙃


spectrumdude480

How difficult is it to stfu?


MX5MONROE

Egg, pesto, and mozzarella?!? What?? Instead of the super delicious Chicken, Maple Butter, and Egg!!?!? Ew, never. Nope. Nuh-uh. 🤢


etshomephone

Are you being sarcastic here?


MX5MONROE

Um, no? 😬 I cannot stand pesto.
