    Since a lot of them share space with KFC, I’m just going to assume they are KFC wings in a Taco Bell box.

    I am sure these fast food chains try and test all sorts of foods. but those don't look good and seem unlikely to stick around the menu.

    Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich

    If you want another suggestion, there's a CFA thread.

    So everyone knows the Popeyes chicken sandwich beats the CFA chicken sandwich…

    BUT!

    Have we discussed the PDQ chicken sandwich in this thread? It’s a contender.

    much better than zaxby’s. Little better than canes. Never had slim chickens, which I see out here

    We have 2 CFA’s, 2 KFC’s, 1 Canes, 1 Wingstop, 1 Bogangles and a Slim Chickens all within a half mile of each other. That’s not even counting the sit down places like Buffalo Wild Wings, Roosters and Winking Lizard. I have no idea how they all stay open.

    They’re opening a Popeyes, but of course it’s downtown and the farthest from me.

    Within 20 minutes of my house there's everything listed plus a churches, two Bojangles, 3 KFC's and a bunch more cfa/Popeyes/Zaxby's. It's kind of insane.

    We have all of that except Church's pretty close. Church's is probably 30 minutes away, far enough you can't really get it to go and expect it to still be fresh and warm when you get home. Sucks bc it's really good. Probably prefer their breast/thigh more than anywhere else.

    Church's has that combo wing/part of the breast piece of chicken that's delicious.

    There’s about a half dozen Korean fried chicken places on the main road in the Asian neighborhood by me. Always a welcomed reprieve/option to all the classic American spots.

    Got a Huey Magoo’s near me. Pretty dang elite if I do say so myself. May put them ahead of canes tenders because they are a better price and have much better sauces.

    this local bojangles is insane. they’re either out of everything or if they aren’t they just give you a ton of food

    got a breast dinner and a bo sandwich for everyone the other night and they gave me an extra breast and extra sandwich free of charge

    they’re leaning into the popeyes model and i am appreciative

    Is this still the Filet-O-Fishial fish sandwich thread?
    The ridiculousness of lent brings out the limited edition fish sandwiches. What’s good this season?
