    My hate of the Wendy's spicy chicken was the lack of consistency. Sometimes it'd be spicy, others just a normal chicken sandwich. Regardless of location, it was just not like CFA where you know what you're going to get. Popeye's has always been a damn wildcard but I still fucking destroy it on a semi-regular basis.

    Interested to hear what people think with the BK spicy that's coming out and the Wendy's weirdo popper thing. I eat FF about twice a month. I love it, but I can't exercise as much as I'd like because of work/family, so I have to take it easy. If I'm gonna shoot my shot, it's gotta be good.

    tried to shoot my shot at Popeye's on Sunday and get chicken sandwich AND flounder...they didn't have either #BirminghamPopeyesproblems?

    Its not the same breading as the chicken sandwich. It is the same breading as their bone-in spicy chicken. The chicken sandwich has plain breading.

    If they would use the spicy breading on the chicken sandwich then add the spicy mayo on top

    I do wonder this. Popeyes always has shrimp on the menu, I dont recall if there is other fish usually. I wonder if they have a dedicated single fryer for seafood. Probably depends on how the location is run, bc Popeyes.

    Got the flounder for lunch. Plain and ditched the bun as per usual. Got some spicy mayo on the side and that made it pretty decent. Did not detect any spice on its own, and he breading wasn’t like any other Popeyes item.

    They definitely do. I got a chicken sandwich with my fish and the chicken had a hint of fish to it.

    Top 3 big chain spicy chicken sandwiches and all are great. Popeyes, Chick Fil A, Wendys jalapeño popper. Depending on day those are interchangeable as favorite

    I'll probably try one but it just seems odd. I don't go to Taco Bell for fried chicken and I wouldn't go to Popeyes for tacos.

    Had the McDonald's sandwich just now after a 9th grade baseball game and long bus ride. It's just ok. More of a cfa knockoff than popeyes.

    with all due respect, raising cane's is the most overrated fast food on the planet. never seen so many people hyped up for cafeteria style chicken fingers and crinkle cut fries. also that sauce sucks.

    Fresh canes chicken with their sauce is top tier. Their fries are meh at best. Once I saved a side of Popeyes spicy mayo in the fridge and dipped my canes in it. That fucked.

    I also enjoy the Canes' Texas toast with the sauce (I know there's nothing remarkable about it, I just do).

    McD with a laughable effort. The spicy sauce was ok. The chicken was bland.

    I ask for the spicy mayo on the side so I have extra to dip my Costo rotisserie chicken (and my penis) in.

    When you ask for extra spicy Mayo you usually get the cup on the side along with it on the sandwich since they’re already made up. If you get a well-sauced sandwich you don’t have to break into the extra.
