The problem is, the hateful chicken is actually delicious. It takes a lot of will power to avoid the delicious evil chicken. And the Mac and cheese.
It's a passable chicken sandwich but people who have never tried popeyes will sit in line for 45 minutes for it and that's just crazy. You'd think they put cocaine in the batter the way you people talk about it. CFA ruins local traffic and I honestly cannot understand why it's so popular.
It amazes me and especially seeing it down south. I thought the one thing the south had was knowing what good food was.
It would never even occur to me go go to this place for food. That's like a DC 0 will save.
And since I'm trying to be more vegetarian anyway, I think I'd roll with advantage.
I've had it a few times, it's actually not that good of chicken. I would say it's slightly above KFC.
no it isn't you just have really bad taste and you're generally a weak person
*(edit to make fun of you more) "and the mac and cheese" sorry this is also a bootlicker tell, idk why but it is
Wow. Sounds like your main accomplishment in life is not liking Chick-fil-A. Well done you!
Wow. Sounds like your main accomplishment in life is liking Chick-fil-a. Well don't you!
no fast food is that good, if you think so then either you have one in a million taste buds (derogative) or you've basically never eaten any other food
Jesus Christ. I prepare 99% of my food at home, from scratch. I’m a very good cook. I know what good food is.
I can also acknowledge that the overload of salt, fat and sugar provided by Chick-fil-A nuggies and Mac and cheese is objectively tasty, as it has been engineered to hit the tastebuds in a way humans have evolved to experience and go “holy shit, I need more of THAT.”
I’m certain I eat less fast food than everyone in this comment thread up on their high horse about how they don’t think CFA tastes good, and that somehow makes them a moral human, especially the ones crowing about how Popeyes is better(?).
Elenor agrees with me.
Nah, homophobic chicken is c tier, they just do a salty marinade.
Ok..? Are you one of the “I’m a good person because I like Popeyes” people? Or one of the “I like to say all fast food tastes bad and that makes me a good person” people?
Im saying chicken fillet's chicken is worse than other fast food places because it doesnt do anything special, its main flavor is salt, this has nothing to do with me being a good person.
But also I liked Church's when I did have fast food.
Wtf is this meme I keep seeing? Ooh yeah they're evil but I'm a mindless sense-driven beast of a consumer who is powerless to sway their id in a more fruitful direction
I had it. Once. Have you had popeyes!!! Heck even churches and I would take a wendys spicy chicken sandwich over thiers.
I’ve had Popeyes a few times but the one here undercooks the chicken. Like, raw chicken, undercooked.
Thats crazy. Only times I have encountered this is with store rotisserie chicken near where the leg meets the thigh or thigh the body.
