Never been to Popeyes

 

I like plain (not spicy) chicken, so I only eat it a couple times a year. Even their plainest chicken is spicy to me. (MadTiger the spice wimp)

 

They have shrimp and some other things too. And some great (fast food great), yet overpriced, side dishes like mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, etc.

Popeyes says they're going to run out of chicken sandwiches in stores across the country this week ... even though they thought they had enough to keep selling them through September.

The chicken joint shared the gut-wrenching news Tuesday afternoon ... telling us they tried to forecast demand through the end of next month, but people's hunger proved too much.

It's pretty crazy ... Popeyes just started selling the sandos earlier this month, igniting an all-out chicken war with Chick-Fil-A, and they promise they're busting their ass to make sure the item is back in stores ASAP.

Really? I like everything at Chick Fil A ...and consider myself somewhat picky

All anyone needs to do when comparing the 2 is look at the employees that are cooking and handling your food and the answer will become obvious...I will never forget the last time I ate at any fast food restaurant years ago and it was actually a Popeye's in Sc that happened to be in same shopping center as Chic Filet...Popeye's was brand new and one of the first in our area and had a special....Chic Filet had line around building and they didn't,so I decided to give a try...

 

Walked in a went to bathroom to wash hands and the smell was unreal! During washing of hands this 350+ man comes out of stall with dirty uniform and disheveled unclean look after dropping possibly the nastiest shit in the history of man and calmly walks right by me and out the door...I finish washing hands and go to counter to order and see it is him back in kitchen cooking...I have no idea whether he washed hands or not...Then the girl taking order is smacking chewing gum while asking what I want...I tell her I left wallet in car and would be right back...Obviously I didn't return...

 

Walk into each and look at employees and you will know the true winner...

They ain't run out of shit...Who the fuck could not buy a truckload of boneless chicken breast within an hour if need be...Much less a company with thousands of stores...Total bullshit made up story by them....

Scarcity to create excitement and demand. Business 101. Some will believe the press release as-is, though. Many, actually.

Yep and they are trying to soil the great name of chik-fil-a all because they don't support things that they are for,such as hiring employees that have common decency and somewhat decent hygiene....Just look at employees and you will see the difference and it ain't even close...

If you thought people would give up easily on getting a taste of a fast-food chicken sandwich that was sold out in two weeks and then disappeared for two months, you’d be wrong.  

 

Popeyes Chicken Sandwich returned to menus nationwide on Sunday — and it appears that, despite hiring extra staff and planning, the fast-food chain was still not entirely equipped to handle the massive amount of fans that came pouring into the restaurant.  

 

According to tweets shared from customers, wait times for the special sandwich allegedly shot up to 8.5 hours.

 

"Best fucking chicken sandwich in the world" said professional trucker Brock Landers.
