Haven't had many problems with their straight up chicken. It's always been pretty good. Their seasoning is decent as well as the breading, so it's hard to gently caress it up. The only issue I have is that people hate cooking the chicken. It's not like Popeyes where they have this huge 6' tall chicken mound. KFC is basically cook to order where I'm at, which means its almost always good, but you're waiting for 10+ minutes per person.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I like freestyle machines but I think fast food is a bad venue for them. Especially since it leads to me having to explain what Sprite Lymonade is and feeling like a loser. But I like it too much to not order it when I can.

The cajun fries are good, but if I'm going to Popeyes I'm already getting the spicy chicken, and in practice I enjoy being able to cut the heat with something else instead of piling it on by doubling down with both. I like the spicy chicken more than the cajun fries, so, that's where my choice goes.

Not extremely, they have a little bite as they are "cajun fries", but it depends on your tolerance to spice I guess, which is always a wildly disputed topic and varies by person. Personally, I would say "not very".

Not really the point though.

If you are already eating the spicy chicken, and following it up with cajun fries, it's just nonstop more of the same and you don't get to appreciate the spicy chicken as much as if you mixed it up with something else I feel. I go for the spicy chicken primarily, though actually not very often, so if I'm going to get it I want to fully enjoy it.

If I went somewhere and ordered fish, I wouldn't get a side of fish flavored fries (is that a thing?), even if those fries might be pretty drat good on their own, because I like to mix it up. I'm not saying anyone is "doing it wrong", of course, it's each person's personal taste, just that's my opinion in response to Farmer's post.

edit:
decided to get me some popeye's after work as a treat, ordered it to be picked up at 5:20, timing it perfectly...

then i got there and stood around for twenty minutes because, i guess, i made the mistake of ordering blackened tendies instead of regular. :negative: at least they didn't gently caress up the order.

Blackened tenders rule. No one orders them so the ones you get will always be freshly made. They’ve got a great spice on them. Best of all, they’re slightly healthier. I just wish they’d bring back the green beans as a side because they were a great healthy complement.

please bring back green beans, the lack of green beans is usually what gets Popeyes shut down as a dinner option because my partner doesn’t want Only Beige, please, please mr sailor man

Just think of it as an easy opportunity to receive the Blessings of Popeyes Excess by being chill - they’ll probably give you double non-blackened tenders for free.

blackened has no breading to soak up oil, lower calories, and almost no carbs if that's something you're worried about.

We ordered late one day and they threw one in for free (behold the bounty of Popeyes). It was…fine? It made me think that their biscuits would make a decent shortcake replacement in a strawberry shortcake, but that just served to make me want strawberry shortcake instead of the strawberry biscuit.
