Just call me AL Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 My dad tells me to go get some fried chicken for dinner from Kentucky Fried Chicken. It's 96 degrees fahrenheit (35.5 degrees celsius) outside, so I get my dad's portable wagon (which was bought from Staples sometime ago) because I didn't feel like carrying food for three people. By the time I get there, I didn't recognise the building due to the lack of a KFC logo, and the building is for rent. It caught me by surprise, needless to say. Dang it. I probably might have worked over there too. Are there any other KFC outlet closings? Or is it just a setback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) The world is going into a setback, or at least the United States is. Don't ask me to explain it. I would say it's my fault but I think I was just the straw that broke my camel's back. Edited August 2, 2011 by Loki Laufeyjarson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Addict Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Meh I think the world can get by without fried chicken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Ya it can. It just "turned into" Kentucky Grilled Chicken. Anyway it's still a setback Fire Emblem Addict, and now we have to see if anyone can reinvent fried chicken as a chain store in a suburb/rural area near you.

Caliban of Sycorax Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 KFC isn't even real chicken, the texture is too rubbery for chicken. Even McDonald's tastes better than that poison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliban of Sycorax Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I don't even know if there's a Popeye's north of the Mason/Dixon line. There aren't any where I live, and the only one I've seen was in Washington DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Addict Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I like Popeyes but I don't like how there's not many chains here compared to KFC >_> Well I guess its because Popeyes is more recent than KFC and therefore had less time to expand. That being said, there are about 20 fast food restaurants within a 10 min walk from where I live (they're all there to capitalize on the fact that a lot of students like to eat fast food for lunch) so getting fried chicken is never a problem for me . However, I do have to exercise restraint and follow my "One fast food meal per three months" rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momo Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I would not call Popeyes recent in any way. I've been eating chicken there for over a decade. That said it's way better than KFC. They use way too many spices and it doesn't cover up the fact that their chicken just isn't good. I do like the twisters, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Tarrasque Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) This reminds of that story where a woman called 911 because the McDonalds she went to at the time were out of McNuggets. Also Popeyes >>> KFC. Edited August 2, 2011 by Sirius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 There's a KFC and Popeyes within walking distance where I live. And they are across the street from one another. And I rarely eat at either. >_> That said Popeyes is definitely more appetizing to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 This reminds of that story where a woman called 911 because the McDonalds she went to at the time were out of McNuggets. That's hilarious. Also I love them all. But I especially love KFC's chicken strips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just call me AL Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Popeyes is superior to KFC IMO. I didn't feel like going the extra blocks just for chicken though.

Strawman Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I like KFC. Quite a lot actually. And my friend's mom manages the one nearby so thats cool. I've only had popeyes like twice but it was pretty good. ...yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) That said Popeyes is definitely more appetizing to me. Jumping on the bandwagon here. I'm in Vegas, and they're both within walking distance from me. Popeyes is better IMHO. I didn't feel like going the extra blocks just for chicken though. Especially (as mentioned) in 96 degrees fahrenheit (35 degrees celsius) weather. Pfft. 96 degrees. PFFFFFFFFT.

Galenforcer Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 KFC's still around the place I live in. Not like that matters to me, since I don't eat at fast food restaurants anymore. Heat waves are nothing to me, since I walk through them when I exercise everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon of Sin Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Still have a KFC up here, but it's kinda far. Besides we have bigger chicken franchises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Addict Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Haha I love how the woman in the above video tried to make herself look victimized by claiming that due to Popeyes running out of chicken she will not be able to "feed her children". Perhaps one of her colleagues should introduce her to a different fast food restaurant or home cooked food? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
