The other day, I decided to live life on the edge.\u00a0 So, I went to Popeye chicken instead of KFC.<\/p>\n
Now, I have always been curious about Popeye chicken every since I found out that they offer a spicy version.\u00a0 However, I was reluctant to try it because I might not like it.\u00a0 But, this week, I decided to put my concerns behind me and give it a shot.<\/p>\n
When I got to the drive through, I ordered my usual fair; a breast, a wing, coleslaw and a large soft drink.\u00a0 But, I was distressed when clerk announced the price.\u00a0 It was 30% more expensive than KFC.\u00a0 Ouch!\u00a0 But, the proof of the value is in the eating, so I headed back to my office with my meal.<\/p>\n
When I took the box out of the bag, I noticed that it seemed smaller than the KFC box.\u00a0 But since I had not measured the size of the KFC box, I couldn’t tell for sure.<\/p>\n
Upon opening the box, my disappointment was confirmed.\u00a0 Instead of a nice big breast and wing, I found a, well, small breast and wing.\u00a0\u00a0 In fact, this Louisiana chicken looked like it might have been a Katrina survivor.<\/p>\n
But, the chicken was tasty and had a nice kick to\u00a0 it.\u00a0 I quickly consumed it, partly because it was tasty and partly because there was not much there.<\/p>\n
The coleslaw was creamy and tasty but no match for the KFC slaw.\u00a0 The biscuit was sweet but there was no butter or honey.\u00a0 They did throw in three packets of hot sauce though I don’t know why.<\/p>\n
All and all, Popeye chicken was good but with the small serving size and the higher price, it was not what I would call a value meal.\u00a0 Well, at least now I know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
