Popeye's

 :babylawd



having it for the first time since i was a kid.  got rip'n chicken.  goddamn, this might be better than a local korean friend chicken place.

[Smooth Groove]

I haven't had Popeye's for at least 5 years but I used to be fond of their spicy flavored chicken.  They had some real pop.

Nowadays, I've gone high class and moved up to broasted chicken.   :smugbiden

Best fast food fried chicken hands down.

[Don Flamenco]

and here come the farts.   

if you guys want, i can liveblog the rest of the digestive process

The biggest beef I have with Popeye's is that they always fuck up my order, regardless of location.

[lennedsay]

I don't know man, you can't beat Lee's lunch special.

[Phoenix Dark]

I've only been to Popeyes once, when I was like seven years old.

[Robo]

They sell chicken?  Just give me two big cups of mashed potatoes & gravy and red beans & rice.

Experiment: I'll just have a salad.
Popeye's: Chicken, it is.
Experiment: No, I said "salad".
Popeye's: "Chicken"?
Experiment:  sa-lad.
Popeye's: Chick-en?
Experiment: S, A. . . .
Popeye's: C, H. . . .

[CrystalGemini]

Just had Popeye's five minutes ago, motherfuckers.

[lennedsay]

I don't know man, you can't beat Lee's lunch special.

This, I also like CFA better.

[Trent Dole]

Good but overpriced. Wish their mash wasn't spicy.

[tiesto]

I'm gonna be near a Popeyes en route to my date... but, it's in Hempstead. Popeye's in Hempstead is not exactly where you wanna be if you're a nerdy white boy..

[Rahxephon91]

Good but overpriced. Wish their mash wasn't spicy.

That's the truth. Really overpriced so I don't go there that often. But man was it good.

The first time I came home from school in WI, well Popeye's was the first place I went.

[lennedsay]

Good but overpriced. Wish their mash wasn't spicy.

Yes! And I always forget when I order. That first bite

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Oh man, their food isn't spicy enough.  I like my food how I like my men, flaming hot.

[Don Flamenco]

i'm pretty sure even my coke was loaded with salt and spices.   

I got this (not my pic):



the Rip'N Chicken.  It's more skin than chicken.     also it looks like a fried sea creature

also, look how small that is.  I finished half of it...it's actually too rich to just scarf down.   

They did fuck up my order, but it ended up being a good fuck up.  I would've gotten the buffalo sauce and this stuff doesn't need anymore spice or flavor.  They gave me ranch instead.   Still couldn't really dip because, while it tastes amazing, it's 10 miles beyond the "too rich" line. 

[CrystalGemini]

Oh man, their food isn't spicy enough.  I like my food how I like my men, flaming hot.

Seriously. 

[Flannel Boy]

CrystalGemini likes her mashed potatoes like she likes her men-- white, mushy, and without taste.

[Robo]

Their spice usage is just inefficient; they use a ton of spices, but it ain't ever that hot.  Cheapens the taste.

There's probably about a dozen local places here that make better fried chicken than any chain, but my go-to fast food fried chicken used to be Hardee's (Carl's Jr. in other areas of the country). It wasn't spicy, but it had this super-thick crust that was awesome. Cheap, too, like $7.99 for an 8-piece with 4 biscuits. I could eat all weekend off that box. Now they only make chicken strips

[Don Flamenco]

the weird thing is, that fried octopus looking thing is actually whole white meat, not mcdonalds nugget meat. 


wish i had more local places.  there's the korean place which i'm pretty burnt out on, popeye's, and kfc which doesn't count

[Eel O'Brian]

i wish we'd get a popeye's here

bojangles' is...okay, but after hearing everyone talk about popeye's for years i'd like to try t

[Groogrux]

Bojangles or get the fuck out.

[Don Flamenco]

is bojangles a southern chain? 

[Great Rumbler]

is bojangles a southern chain? 

Mostly the deep south, though they do have stores up into Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.

[Groogrux]

Yeah, it doesn't even reach up to where I live.  The closest one to me is in Knoxville, TN.

Hand?  It looks like a batch of deep fried n' breaded TURDS.

[Himu]

Haven't had fried chicken in months due to diet. May have to go to Frenchys or Popeye's sometime in May. I always feel sorry for the white folks who buy KFC at work. They don't know any better. They just don't know.

[Himu]

You poor non-Houstonians



You poor people

Are you willing to get shot for your fried chicken? Bey is.

[bork]

That looks so nasty.   

[Himu]

That looks so nasty.   

Yes Bey would look better without that dyed hair shit I agree.

[bork]

: rule #3 of fried chicken: looks have little to no bearing on taste.

I don't like the taste, either.

I think I can stand to eat a fried chicken sammich and that's about it.

[Himu]

Why do white people say sammich  do they think it is "cute"?

Noshing on a sammich! #shitwhitepeoplesay

Thank god you guys aren't the ones coming up with popular slang or we'd all be fucked.

That was Roy Rogers chicken, from when they bought the franchise in the early 90's.  Used to have a RR near my house as a kid, which became a Hardee's, and then back to "Roy Rogers featuring the Hardee's breakfast."  I basically lived on that chicken until I was 15 and it turned into a McDonald's.

do they think it is "cute"?

Are you saying Sailor Moon isn't cute?

[Mandark]

Are you saying Sailor Moon isn't cute?

Yes.

[Himu]

Not my fault or my problem you can't appreciate Sailor Moon! Certainly doesn't answer the sammich question! Sangwich? What the fuck.

[Positive Touch]

i feel sorry for the people that go to Church's, because that shit usually sucks and so does laying down cover fire to get fried chicken.

you dun fucked up now

churches with that fried okra

[Himu]

[brawndolicious]

I never understood the point of non-boneless fried chicken.

Huh, I had no idea. Now I want a Roy Rogers here!

Leper this filth

[Don Flamenco]

i drove past another popeye's today...was so tempted.   but i've still got the rest of last night's in the fridge.   should sit nicely on top of the wendys i had for lunch. 


i really gotta get to the grocery store 

[brawndolicious]

Wow that's really poor meal planning and I have Taco Bell for dinner a few times a week.

I never understood the point of non-boneless fried chicken.

Leper this filth

I have to spend a couple minutes tearing it off the bone onto a plate, and then go wash my hands. And by then it cools down a lot. Tell me how is that better?

[etiolate]

why would you put it on a plate?

Just eat it off the bone.

You...put the fried chicken in your mouth and...take it off the bone with your mouth. You do not take it off the bone and eat it. o_o

[Himu]

This nicca got to be trolling

It gets your hands dirty and isn't as efficient in getting all the meat off.

[Great Rumbler]

Boneless or bust.

[Don Flamenco]

that's how I eat buffalo wings too.   otherwise, you're left with that sauceless chicken bite in the middle.
