Just like when Popeyes did nothing when one of their managers blatantly discriminated against an autistic child for just existing.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 15 points 1 week ago

Is that better or worse than Cracker Barrel segregating diners until the aughts, and having to be sued to stop it? Same? Same degree, but less of an issue because it wasn't systemic (probably)?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 67 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

If it were real I'd be tempted to drive to wherever they have Popeye's.

Edit: wtf I looked it up and we actually have one lol

they've successfully pandered to you with an advertisement of literal empty words

Popeyes is amazing. There's a dozen in my area. Out of all the national fried chicken chains, easily the best.

KFC is disgusting. Dave's Hot Chicken? More like Dave's Hot garbage. Wingstop? Just stop. I'm not eating the chicken sandwich that hates gay people.

If you're asking what the best fried chicken & fried chicken sandwich, unfortunately my city is extremely spoiled with local joints.

[–] HakFoo@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just to be clear, the chicken sandwich itself holds no ill will to the homosexual community. Sandwiches are generally incapable of hate.

Sadly, the ghouls that own the company that makes the sandwiches are incapable of reaching the same level of human empathy that an inanimate foodstuff can.

Aside from that, you ain't missing much. It tasted weird and sweet 20 years ago when they started selling them here, before the controversy.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, one of them called me a f-word once, I'm not sure how it even knew. Maybe Gawd told it?

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

And the lord said, "yeah bb sucky sucky". And thus, I complied. You ever get a facial from a dude who hasn't nutted in two thousand years? I thought my edge game was on point but damn.

Not going to disagree with your cross-comparison here, but have you tried Korean-style fried chicken yet?

If they made fresh chicken that place would be so fire. Unfortunately every time I’ve been there every piece of my meal- chicken, fries, Mac- all taste approximately 4-8 hours old. It’s inedible garbage that tastes as though if it were fresh it would be some of the most bomb chicken I’ve ever had. I’ve even got at different times of day when it would most likely be fresh, but apparently they make all their food at 5AM just for it to sit under heat lamps until they close… then reheat that same trash the following day just to save money.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I hate that for you. If you find a good Popeye's it's really great for fast food. Unfortunately to find a good one you've got to look for a line.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Skip the fries and get red beans and rice with your chicken. It's surprisingly good for fast food.

[–] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 3 points 1 week ago

If you're ever driving thru a rural area, try the fast food there. It tends to be a lot better as it's in pretty direct competition to family owned restaurants in these areas and therefore tends to be fresher and stuff. Like near my grandpa's farm the best breakfast around is the IHOP and its the best IHOP I've ever been to in my life by far because it has to compete with mom and pops diners at similar price points whereas in more populated areas the mom and pops places tend to be more expensive than fast food.

if you find yourself there again for some reason order the non breaded strips. can't remember wha they are called but I have never seen them pre prepare them as there is not enough call to do so. It will be a bit of a wait though. they basically pan fry them and without the breading the spicyness hits that much harder.

If that is even true: Silence, brand.

"Creative Destruction" - I like it.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

It'd be funny if McDonald's stock went down for a couple of days and some of the backlash was a corporate no narcing policy.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Should have gone to Waffle House.

[–] Decoy321@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Dude would've ran out of bullets

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

That's some Wendy's level.

[–] HiddenLayer555@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Yes you would.

Yes you absolutely fucking would.

Shut the fuck up corporate social media.

A marketing post like this is tone deaf as fuck and an insult to our intelligence to even imply you wouldn't have. I'm so fucking sick of corporations seeing any internet sensation as an opportunity to cash in and make it about them. Fuck you.

[–] TJDetweiler@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago

Relax, not a real tweet

[–] Old_Yharnam@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Bro you seriously think this is a real tweet?
