Just because some lunatic called a patty in between two slices of bread a burger doesn't mean that it's still a thing.
Yep. And in that case. A chicken sandwich is the GOAT:A chicken burger to me implies ground chicken.
A chicken sandwich implies a breast fillet.
It is a chicken sandwich unless the chicken has been ground and pressed into a hamburger-like patty and then grilled hamburger style.
I suppose. Though consider the Sourdough Jack, or other hamburger-based sandwiches that don't utilize traditional buns. That usually moves them into 'melt' territory, away from the burger classification.Whopper Dynamics are a separate branch of Burger Physics and the two don't necessarily play nice together. It's like Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.

Thus, there's precedent for the bread being the defining element.
Side note:
Burgers with ground chicken are terrible. You need a little more fat and turkey works much better.
So, funny you bring up a Chicken Whopper. It seems it's an actual menu item in Burger King India - but I can't tell if it's using chopped chicken or not. The menu description mentions a 'patty', but that could be a pounded breast.It has less to do with the bread being a defining characteristic and more to do with the fact that it is a modification of an existing item that is already considered a burger. A whopper is definitely a burger. A weird whopper on a hoagie roll is still a whopper because it is a member of the whopper burger family, for example. A chicken Sandwich that uses a roll/bun instead of bread is still primarily a chicken sandwich.
Now, Burger King could swap out the patty on a regular whopper for a chicken cutlet/breast filet and call that a "chicken whopper", but that would be insanity. A chicken whopper would require a ground chicken patty.
If it has burger buns it's a burger regardless of whats in between.
Chicken Burger if it's a patty of ground chicken. Otherwise, it's a Chicken Sandwich.
Unless the chicken is ground and formed into a patty, sandwich.
Ground meat is a burger. Filets are sandwiches. If you had a chunk of sirloin steak and put it on a bun, it'd be a steak sandwich, not a burger. Same applies to other meats.
There's burgers made of chicken and sandwiches with chicken.
.Unless the chicken is ground and formed into a patty, sandwich.
Yeah, it's pretty simple

You've never had something like a McChicken at McDonald's? Or one of those extremely processed chicken patties from a school cafeteria? Think a big chicken nugget.
Side note, I've never had Chick Fil-A. Is their chicken burger (or sandwich) a whole breast filet, or chopped chicken?

This is what I believed my entire life.
I recently moved to USA and was stumped to see what I thought were Chicken Burgers being called Chicken Sandwiches. I thought this is how it's supposed to be.
Now we have this topic on GAF, so are there places in US which actually have Chicken Burgers?
Don't listen to the heretics. We call them chicken sandwiches here.
The burger in burger stands for hamburger. As in beef. As in not chicken.
Yeah this is what I have seen everywhere here in US and this is what I believe.
Beef=Burger.
BTW what's a McChicken? Burger or a Sandwich?
