Believe it or not, some of the best fried chicken in Maryland is at a chain of gas stations called Royal Farms.

I’ve had breakfast at Frisch’s Big Boy in Columbus, Ohio. The food was pretty good.

Back in the day, when I was music minister of a church that reached out to bikers, the pastor, deacons, and officers of the church would go on our bikes, wearing our colors, to Popeye’s for some serious FRIED CHICKEN.

The franchise, in Ft. Lauderdale, was owned and operated by Black People. The treated us very well and greeted us by name every Thursday. It was a weekly ride that I looked forward to, and now miss very much.

Your posting brought back a nice memory. Thanks!

Is it just me or has Popeye’s made their spicy Cajun recipe less spicy? Their fried chicken just doesn’t seem as spicy as it used to be.

KFC apparently changed its recipe some years ago and I swear their chicken isn't as tasty as it once was. Could Popeye's be doing the same thing--perhaps to appeal to a wider population as they expand?

I gave up on Popeyes a little over a year ago. I always order their spicy breasts. The chicken used to be a golden color then they started to be really dark. I tried three different local locations and they were all the same.

For decades, the Chicken Dinner Restaurant at Knott’s Berry Farm, an amusement park in Buena Park, Calif. has been serving fried chicken with mashed potatoes, gravy, and biscuits with boysenberry jam. My mother worked there as a waitress in 1942, and her boss was the wife of the Farm’s owner, Walter Knott. At the time, it was still a berry farm.

In the 1950’s, some of theeir chickens came from my uncle’s ranch, which was, as my mother described it at the time, “way out in the country.” Disneyland now sits on the site.

Knott was a big supporter of conservative causes. His family sold the Farm about 20 years ago, but their chicken is still good, and you can now take it home through their KFC-style takeout service.

In 1960, a Bob's Big Boy opened up on Whittier Blvd. in Whittier, Calif. Lured by Bob's, as well as Jack's, the Jam-In, Whirly's, Wienerschnitzel and Taco Bell, teenagers would flock to "the Boulevard" for an evening of "cruising" in their cars on Friday and Saturday.

Jack's and the Schnitzel are still there, the Jam-In is now a Mexican restaurant, and Taco Bell now serves Korean cuisine, but Bob's and Whirly's have long since departed and so have the cruisers.

I now live near Baltimore. I’m not sure if the Big Boy chain was ever here but a restaurant near me with lots of knick knacks on the wall has a Big Boy coin bank on a shelf.

I thought eating fried chicken was supposed to be racist?

Fried chicken is a racist dog whistle.

Outlaw chickens.
