Just had Popeyes Spicy Chichem Sandwich for first time. I get it-it’s the best chicken sandwich out there. Juicy, tender chicken. The breading was enough to give it a great crispness without being filler. The pickles were outstanding. Thicc!!! It’s a detail too often overlooked. I got a side of sweet heat to pour on it. *chef’s kiss plus I always love a place where the lady calls me “sweetie”. Will definitely get again (embarrassed it took so long to try it).
I got one a couple weeks back and the filet was so small it didn’t even fill the bun and wasn’t very crispy at all.
I got two last week. One was small and round as described above, the other was just a tender on the bun. I wasn’t getting back in a 20 minute line to bitch.
Went through Popeyes for lunch. I’m trying to get back into my diet so I just ordered 5 blackened tenders. What I was given was a 5 piece spicy tenders with a biscuit and fries. Didn’t check the bag for 15 minutes when I got home. Silly me for trusting Popeyes. Now I have a wonderland of carbs that I’m not going to eat. I peeled the breeding off to salvage some of the spicy tenders, but I’m quite disappointed.
I got the correct change for my total, but the receipt was for the meal I got and rung up as exact change.
racer https://www.popeyes.com/nutritional-information So 10 tenders (not sure I could eat 10) and 1 blackened ranch dipping sauce is only 10 carbs. Hadn't even thought about going there since I've been cutting down on my carbs.
Ask for a side of spicy mayo for dipping and go to town. Not sure on the carb content, but it sounds like they mayo doesn’t use sugar or starch.
Classic sandwich is 50 carbs and the spicy is 50.4 so yea the spicy mayo doesn't add much. Good call.

They finally tore down the old shitty abandoned Chinese restaurant in town. A Popeyes is going in on the land. I’m gonna get fatter.
Way late to this thread but I finally had one (spicy) last week and it wasn’t worth a damn. It was soggy as shit.
This is why you order without pickles even if you like pickles. You have to make sure to get a freshly assembled one.
Pickles weren’t the problem. It was absolutely smothered and covered in the spicy sauce. Quality control was nowhere.
