I like the idea. But, realistically?

That looks pretty tasty. I have no clue where my nearest Frenchys is but if I passed by one, was hungry, there was no line, and my visual inspection for a chance of getting stabbed was low I'd stop in.

Not sure those things will ever align though.

Haha, I totally agree, been saying that about Popeye's too.. and throw in a case of possible hepatitis exposure at Popeyes in the mix of variables. That Frenchy's one looks, good, is that some sort of pickled jelly on that?

That looks pretty tasty, but my bullet-proof vest is at the cleaners so I'll have to wait to get one. I think the probability of getting smoked at a Frenchy's was pretty good before this, but they upped the stakes.


Popeye's: People are killing each other over our chicken sandwiches.

Frenchy's: Hold my beer.

one of my favorite experiences is hitting the Timmy Chan's drive through. the drive through window is a revolving piece of what looks to be bullet proof plexiglass. put your money in. turns to the cashier. cashier puts food in and turns it to you.

i imagine the Frenchy's experience is quite similar.

Sold out, on the cut, now it's time to call a cab
Stop at Timmy Chan's for the wings and rice
Then to the store, I need a forty and some dice


Wings & rice at Timmy's are legit, but the "General Joe" is the teeeets. Good egg rolls too.

Because SJW anti- Christian socialists hate Chick-fil-A so they need an alternative.

They didn't invent the chicken, just the chicken sandwich.

I'm also pretty sure there were never any riots when the awesome Spicy Chicken Deluxe was limited edition at CFA.

This is the real story in all of this. I am amazed that all of this has gotten so much attention. Good for Popeyes, they figured out how to get the masses to notice them but I just don't get it.

At the end of the day it is a chicken restaurant selling a chicken sandwich which should never be news worthy.

Can't wait to go thru the Scott Street Frenchy's drive thru and get this new sandwich along with my 20 box, red beans, greens and peach cobbler.

Best chicken in town.

So after taking my kid to a birthday party in Stafford, we saw a Popeyes and no line at the drive-thru, so we figured they were out of spicy sangs (it was about 1:30 on Saturday). They actually had some so I finally got to try it. Is it good? Absolutely. Is it worth getting stabby / getting stabbed for? No. It's a grease bomb, so your last few bites are a bit soggy, but it is tasty. I think they are a little too different to do an apples-to-apples comparison with CFA. I'm not going to stop eating CFA spicy sang because of it.

Now, I need to luck onto a short, semi-violent Frenchy's drive-thru to try theirs.


By the way, that In N Out in Stafford looks almost done. I know, WB is king and all that, but just sayin'.

Chick Fil-a sent this tweet out a few day after Popeyes launched their sandwich.

Then Popeyes responded with...


Quote:
This, plus other fast food chains like Wendy's piling on, triggered a mass retweeting/liking/hashtagging storm, filled with Dead Mufasa memes. And it did more to market and promote Popeyes' brand than any ad campaign could. Celebrities tried the sandwich. News anchors tried it. Writers wrote think pieces about it. And the lines began stretching out of Popeyes restaurants all over the country.
