Posted August 26, 2019 What's all the hype about? If I take a bite of it, will it take me away on clouds of ecstacy? 🤔 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 26, 2019 No kidding. My kid, whose never mentioned Popeye, just had to go get that sandwich this weekend. Took him there, the place was packed and sold out of the sandwich. Must be something I've missed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 26, 2019 Marketing at it's best. Create a demand and you can sell out. Usually it isn't any better then the next guy. Just a different spin. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ecstasy - yes, if you are a lefty that has been longing for an almost identical chicken sandwich but just can't go to Chic-fil-A cause of the boycott. Goes beyond just marketing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goes beyond just marketing. Hate to say it, but if there's a boycott going on, it's not a very effective one. Chick-fil-A was just ranked the number one fast food restaurant in America. https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/allthemoms/2019/06/27/chick-fil-a-ranked-top-fast-food-chain-fourth-year/1582613001/ I understand that some people refuse to go to Chick-fil-A because of their politics, but that aside, they do make a good chicken sandwich and the customer service is far above many others. And last time I checked, we still have the freedom to choose which groups and political platforms we support in this country. May not agree with them, but I will always respect their rights to choose. Even though I'm not saying I agree with Chick-fil-A, I expect some backlash for this post. That's okay, it's your right and I respect that too. Edited August 26, 2019 by TheFinerThings 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's okay, it's your right and I respect that too. 100% I am not a fan or supporter of the company's politics and being an atheist I really can't get on board with the Christian closed on Sunday thing. But their chicken is the shit and the customer service is far above any other ff chain. I don't know where they are growing these stepford kids but everyone else should take a lesson in that business model. That being said, I am looking forward to trying out Popeye's sammich, but my expectations are low. Edited August 26, 2019 by whosyourdaty 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 26, 2019 Knew one of the first folks to join the chic-fil-a. He retired from the Army to join with buddy. Original business plan in malls only no realestate, samples in mall walkway. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you will find that your expectations are correct. Based on my experience from my one time eating at a Popeye's restaurant, I won't be trying the sammach. I didn't get the sammach but I couldn't see what was so special about the chicken from the tenders that I got. Bojangles's has much better tenders, IMO. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 27, 2019 Well I usually don't cook chicken myself either. I go to Sam's Club or Costco. $6 bucks and it is ready to eat. Not fried, so a little healthier. It goes a lot further too. Next day sandwiches, then use it to make a chicken pot pie, chicken pieces and gravy or chicken soup. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 28, 2019 I tried it the other day. It was good, but no ecstasy. It's a little crispier and greasier than Chick-fil-A. It runs a close second and was better than most other fast food places. Service utterly sucked, though. Now, I need to get some good gravy .. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 28, 2019 I tried it about a month or so ago, and it was good. I like Chick-Fil-A's better, but it was good! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
