I must be missing something here, because I’ve had Popeye’s and it’s just a chicken sandwich like all the others. It’s not like they’re making it from scratch like they would at some small business.
Yeah, but the difference between the Popeyes chicken sandwich and the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had is not a lot, and the difference between the Popeyes chicken sandwich and that overcooked piece of breaded leather from McDonalds is fucking lightyears.
This is a dumb post
I love the fact that there are people saying that all these are different and they love having that choice.
Look, I’m all for shitting on crapitalism and our hyper consumerist society, but it’s a chicken sandwich ffs.
it needs infinite innovation and growth otherwise capitalism is failed. no chicken sandwich evolution = doomed philosophy
Having lots of options for chicken sandwiches doesn’t seem to be a problem with capitalism, and one could always decline to eat a chicken sandwich, or make your own. Wealth inequality and special interests controlling the government are much more of a problem.
That Popeyes sandwich is lit tho…
Maybe it’s because this is posted in c/politicalmemes but I think y’all are thinking to deeply about something that should be a mild chuckle and then moving on.
So the general vibe I’m getting from the comments is that Pope’s chick is simultaneously the best and worst chicken.
I love the mobile game version of this because it shows how everyone just rips each other off. This is more of an example of food companies optimizing a tried and true formula.
Capitalism itself rarely invents new things, but it does optimize existing things quite well
Though what it tries to optimize it for isn’t always what is best for the consumer
Chicken sandwiches used to be so much better. Now it occasionally feels like I’m biting into a tire. I don’t understand this business strategy.
I don’t understand this business strategy.
You still bought it and they saved money. Profit!
Its simple, capitalism treats the consumer like cattle, and the optimization of profit drives them to replace real quality products with cheaper and cheaper substitutes over time until you’re expected to bite into that tire and go “wow, this chicken is delicious”
Am I the only one who thinks the Popeyes sandwich is the greasiest fuckin thing ever? Everyone raved about it but I couldn’t finish it, I really gave it an honest try. It was gross.
All of these taste completely different
You must eat a lot off ass to say that
