Yeah, it'll be bad. And the intersection where they're putting it is pretty awful too. But in about three months, that's going to make for a very fine Saturday.

So, just buy Panera macaroni and cheese in your local grocery store, yeah?

Yeah, even in our little burg, you best not go there at lunchtime if you want to be back at work on time. Despite the fact there is another one just a couple miles away.

Re: Fast Food Thread: Not just about assholes anymore
My dream is a green chile double double animal style. They have hot peppers, but they aren't Hatch chile. I just want to crush a Blake's lotaburger and a Double Double at lunch, but in New Mexico. (They have Blake's in Tucson these days, but it isn't the same.)
(And I'm sure I've said it before, but my go to order is 3x3 animal style, no veggies, extra toasted buns and hot peppers. With a Neapolitan shake.)

Man, a green chile Lotaburger with a chocolate shake sounds pretty phenomenal right now. We'll be in Santa Fe for a week over New Years and I'm finally going to try their carne adovada breakfast burrito.

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

Popeyes trolling Chick-Fil-A by rolling the chicken sandwich back out this Sunday.
Awesome (in both respects.)

It's an excellent sandwich. Can't wait to eat it again.

Re: Fast Food Thread: Not just about assholes anymore
Beautiful. Brings a tear to my eye.
What would put it over the top for trolling would be Popeye's accepting Chick-Fil-A gift cards. Not holding my breath on that one, but a man can dream.

Or Popeye's essentially gives away free food. I wasn't talking about them hacking any systems.

I've never been to Popeye's in my life, but there is one in the next town over, so I plan to give them some business this Sunday to check this thing out.

I hadn't been before earlier this year when one finally opened (in an old Wendy's!). Would have assumed the closest one was like 8 hours from here before that.

Friend of mine from school did real estate development for Bojangles. As part of the corporate onboarding process everyone learns to make the biscuits.

Bojangles biscuits are better, IMO, but everything else is better at Popeyes.

Pretty difficult to pin down what their footprint is, really. I grew up in MI (we know, dude) and there's no Popeye's in Ann Arbor, but there are pockets in the state.
I just figured with the spread they have in various places people would've run into one on various travels. I've been to a Bojangles or two, even though it's not something where I grew up or currently live (MD).

Agreed. I'm not a biscuit person (other than bisquits and gravy, on which I'm fully in on), but I'll eat a Bojangles biscuit. Popeyes is fine, but I already feel like I'm eating so much bad stuff that I can opt out of that aspect and not feel so gross afterwards.

Re: Fast Food Thread: Not just about assholes anymore
Clarification: I like a good biscuit, thank you very much. But to me it's pretty much a meal in and of itself. I'm not going to forego a good piece of chicken to eat a biscuit.
Put it this way, if you have a full array of T'giving laid out, I'm not grabbing a biscuit in lieu of mashed tatters/gravy, stuffing, etc.
But you put a nice biscuit/butter/jam spread in front of me, and I might eat that instead of other breakfast options.
Choices, is what I'm saying.

Can confirm. Still delicious. Seems smaller though.

Re: Fast Food Thread: Not just about assholes anymore
Got to Popeye's around when it opened and the drive thru line was wrapped around the building. Decided to go inside instead. The wait was about 30 minutes. Still delicious and very awesome.
They actually called my number twice. But I didn't take the free food, much to everyone else's chagrin.

Re: Fast Food Thread: Not just about assholes anymore
When I worked in NYC, there was a Popeye's directly across the street from my office, and there is one 10 minute from my house that I drive past frequently. I think I may have gotten Popeyes at the Livingston Mall food court once, but I can't remember if I did, or just looked at the menu.Nonlinear FC wrote: ↑Tue Oct 29, 2019 4:07 pmhttps://locations.popeyes.com/The Sybian wrote: ↑Tue Oct 29, 2019 3:08 pmI'm legit not sure if I've ever eaten at a Popeyes.
