    I'm committed to this. Will be my dinner. Gonna fast and then smoke a bunch of ganj, truly be prepared.

    Should I get both to go and try them side by side, or one first and then the other?

    I'm thinking chicken filet first, Popeyes 2nd.

    I think side by side is the gold standard for this type of thing.

    They both come wrapped in those foil bags. I think you should be good for a drive across the street. Your side by side would end up being in the parking lot if you want them as hot as possible though.

    Is it supposed to be a spicy sandwich or just regular? Or can you get it either way?

    Should have got 2 of them. When I fucks with some food I like to fucks with it, so I may be going to get a few more. Or a lobster roll from a place I’ve been eyeballing for awhile.

    I inhaled it and stole 2 bites off of my wife’s regular. Regular is good but the spicy is god tier.

    My local Popeyes is a total shitshow that's connected to a gas station. Walked inside with a friend once and my friend places his order. I approach the counter and got completely ignored while the associates stood 3 feet from me playing hangman on a whiteboard. He got his food and I never even got my order taken

    That said Popeyes is still great

    Maybe the Popeyes I went to did it wrong but it should be a spicy patty. The spicy mayo or whatever is the only thing making this “spicy” and it just doesn’t really work for me. Use the spicy batter they have for the fried chicken and this would be an elite sandwich.

    Tiffin get the Popeye’s then take it into CFA. It will be CFA’s pleasure to ensure you’re getting the best chicken in your system, even if it’s not their chicken.

  36. Just finished splitting a spicy and regular with the wife. The regular is clearly superior to Chik-Fil-A. I’m surprised that it isn’t even that close.

    The spicy chicken sandwich is the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had bar none.

    I have been telling this board that CFA is overrated as hell for years. I, for one, am interested in this new sandwich; but PDQ is still the best.
