Popeyes Chicken Sandwich

Posted on 08/25/2019 11:33:56 AM PDT by savedbygrace

I have two questions about Popeyes' Chicken Sandwich for those who have eaten one.

1) Do you think it is better than a Chic Fil-A Chicken Sandwich?

2) Is it spicy, even the least bit spicy?

Thank you.

I wouldn’t know. The only time I ever got a CF sandwich I picked it up first thing all the nuggets fell in the floorboard. I had ordered a fillet so why were there nuggets. The guy taking the order was RUDE. The bread was nasty so gathered it all up and gave it to the dog. The dog, who eats everything, turned up his nose and didn’t touch it. So, does that tell you enough when a dog won’t eat one? CF won’t be seeing me again.

I found her videos about 2 months ago.

I like her retro recipe videos the best I think.
She is one of the few people I could binge watch.

But my favorite is when she did Sandra Lee’s Kwanza cake. If you haven’t seen it yet the comments are funny. And I also would go watch Aunt Sandy’s video to compare.

Culver fish sandwiches are really good! I don’t care for chick fil a, because I like my chicken with the bones still on. Btw, Cracker Barrel’s new fried chicken is fantastic!

How much of a normal Whopper is filler? Is it 100% beef?

Culver’s opened and my area and was a let-down. It’s just another fast food place.

Their one thing that makes me go there is the free pup-cup of custard and peanut sauce in the drive-thru. My dog loves it.

the ACTUAL answer to your question... sorry. it took me so long to see this one... is in a meme that I cannot seem to find now (making me grumpy)...

The gist is that CFA's chicken sandwich is made with the purest ingredients, the freshest bread, barely a small slice of pickle to interrupt the parade of goodness and joy and love that your sweet old grandma put into making the healthiest possible fried chicken sandwich together, that really doesn't even need any condiments, showing your a hug and kiss in chicken form...

And Popeye's chicken sandwich is made with the devotion and skill acquired in decades of your salty old grandma's years of living life on her terms, fried up in gallons of pure grease sent from Heaven above, splashed with 2-3 dashes of spicy goodness because Ol' Granny knows that Long Life ain't worth livin' if it means giving up good food that makes your soul water to think on it, and she don' give two squirts what the Healthy Folk say, she be knowin' what GOOD Fried Chicken really means...

Really wish I could find the meme. I cannot do it justice.

Short answer: They both rock. If you want purity of ingredients, simplicity, and amazing service: CFA. If you want good old fashioned artery-clogging awesomeness, and that nice little tingle on the tongue, with the dash of Southern flair... then it is Popeye's. Put both in your rotation. Enjoy life.

I have recently done an intensive comparative study of chicken sandwiches from all major restaurants including Chik fil a and Popeyes.

Each sandwich from each restaurant is ranked on a scale from 1 to 100 with 1 being terrible and 100 being Nirvana. The criteria covers such areas as crispiness, the type of cooking medium, bun selection, average cleanliness of the establishments and 78 other factors that affect the taste and texture of the sandwich.

These factors were determined from random customer surveys, formal surveys that I commissioned, hundreds of hours of interviews involving restaurant managers and employees, consulting with chemical and diet experts, as well as a professional staff of over 256 paid food taste experts.

With my rankings I can predict by sex, ethnicity, religion, age, occupation and economic security what sandwich will taste best to an individual.

This information can be purchased for a one time fee of $4500.99. If you supply me with your name, address, bank account number, credit card and social security number I will add you to my mailing list. You will receive an updated list of sandwiches every month for 10 years for this low low price. That's less than $38 dollars a month for information which can be used every day of your life.

If it’s not spicy hot, then it ain’t food.

IMO, if it doesn't come with a biohazard symbol, it ain't spicy.

Chic Fil-A's customer service, though, is light yeas' better than Popeyes'. And that matters.

I usually get a side order of attitude from Popeye's whether I ask for it or not, never at Chic Fil-A.

If I go to Popeyes I’m getting some of their fried chicken pieces - have never tried the sandwich. If it’s basically a boneless breast breaded and fried in their regular coating, it will probably be pretty good.

I just don’t much care for Chik-Fil_A’s breaded coating. I get the grilled sandwich when we go there. Still prefer Zaxby’s Cajun Club if I’m getting a fast food chicken sammie though.

It depends on what you consider “spicy.”
Everything at Popeye’s is *seasoned* but nowhere near Indian food-level spicy.
When you go to Popeye’s, you gotta get the Mean Greens and the Fried Okra.

At Chik Fil-A, try the black bean salad with the avocado cilantro lime dressing, I forget what it’s called but it’s awesome.
