LMAO @ 2D4U!


Super Popeyes:
The site isn't up, but this is their catering menu. It is a fast food joint, just like a regular Popeyes! LOL

Do you all have a KFC buffet? It is KFC, but they have their sides on a buffet (greens, corn, mac & cheese, etc.)

On my way home to slam on some more of my 8 piece and remaining biscuits.

Naw. I used to hear about the Buffet from my ex-boyfriend. He was from Cocoa, Fl. I was visiting some place and I saw the KFC buffet. Maybe when I went to Orlando.

A few of the KFCs in South LA have closed.

I must admit, that there is just no comparison...POPEYES!!!

When I feel like some GUUD chicken, POPEYES is the best!!!
When I feel like some GOOD chicken AT A REASONABLY LOW LOW PRICE...THEN IT IS CHURCH'S FOR ME!! But their biscuits are better than Popeyes!!

I used to LUUV some KFC, but the taste don't quite suit me any more. And we are NOT even GOING to TALK about Mrs. Winners!!

BTW: I used to work at Popeyes when I was 15!!!

Popeyes without a doubt, and you know what the one in New Orleans does taste better.

....that's a good question, especially considering I had Popeyes last night and KFC last week.

While Columbus does have quite a few Church's chicken joints in town (one of them actually sharing space with a White Castles), the first and last time I had Church's chicken was in November 1989 (it was rather tasty, mind you--I just don't know what's holding me back from trying Church's again).

Anyway, that leaves Popeye's v. KFC. I like Popeye's spicy crispy strips (but hate the effect the spices have on the stomach and, uh, "digestive system"). Their mashed potatoes w/gravy and their greens are the BOMB (why they took the greens off the menu is beyond me). For some reason, every time I eat Popeyes, that General Otis commercial from Undercover Brother is always playing in my head. Oh, and I love their biscuits too.

KFC, however has IMHO the best original recipe coating. I have loved it since I was a kid, however perhaps due to my age, I now find it a bit too salty and too fatty. But it's a guilty pleasure nonetheless. Back in the day (mid-80s), they had Kentucky Nuggets which I thought were the best chicken nuggets I ever had. Too bad they did away with them. 5 years ago they had 5 different KFC sandwiches. They now have 2 still on the menu, the Original Recipe sandwich which I liked best they did away with. I would eat that with the 99 cent potato wedges.

In short, KFC has experimented with various dishes that while I personally liked them, they never kept them long term or brought them back sporadically (case in point: their rotisserie gold chicken--DEE-LEE-I-O-SHUS!!). Their sides dishes I think is okay, but not great.

So to sum up, I like KFC when I want "plain" fried chicken (which I usually eat with Pasta Roni and a vegetable), Popeye's when I want crispy chicken and their side dishes.

The closest KFC near me (Brice & Scarborough) used to have a buffet, which I immediately fell in love with, but they got rid of it a month after I started making a weekly trek there. I found out there was one in Pickerington, about 6 miles from the B&S location, but it was too far for me to frequent on a regular basis. But I loved the all-you-can-eat deal. Believe me, I got my money's worth on that one.

Y'all wrong! Church's is the best (if you can look past the genetic engineering - you have to forgive them for their frighteningly enormous chicken pieces, they're from Texas! Everything's bigger there!)

My 8 year old neice loves Buffalo Wild Wings. Their drumsticks scare me because they are HUGE.I hate to see her eat them because I'm afraid of what the chickens were fed to make them grow that large.

Popeyes for the adults,BWW for the kidlet.

I have never had Church's... I would have to go to Nashville to get some. I can't give a real decision btw the three places. But btw Popeye's and KFC, Popeye's win.

[Ten/Four]

I do like Church's sweet biscuts.

[NeneRx]

Since I'm from the Chi, I have to say Harold's Chicken and Kenny's Ribs hands down!! Once you've had it, you'll never want anything else.
