    "Fried" is an evil word these days. The marketing people say that the public wants to think they are eating healther fast food, so "fried" was dropped as people who eat healthy don't eat fried foods.

    Marketing.
    To broaden the amount of things they can have on their menu and to remove any bad connotation with the word Fried.

    I think it was to get the word FRIED out of their name. As people become more health conscious, they are less likely to eat fried foods.
