I finally tried this ********. This sandwich wasn’t worth the hype:

 

[checks mcgee]

You’re about 5 years late

1) the sandwich isn’t the same

2) there is no more hype

 

[RustyShackleford]

Mans just wants attention

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Y’all start up a KFC thread for all that talk..we ain’t trying hear that bs in here this strictly Popeyes territory

Nah this is the all-encompassing fried chicken thread.

I finally tried this bull****. This sandwich wasn’t worth the hype:

I tried it 3 years ago and I was so pissed it got gassed the way it did.

 

[checks mcgee]

yall must have some wack locations lol

cuz in its prime that sandwich was the truth

 

[jape]

sandwich still good to me
i’m not sure what people are expecting though

not sure why people are posting selfies with it in 2023

Sandwich was good, the marketing plan/war it created, gave chic-fil-a a run for its money.

Bruh it was a piece of boneless Popeye's in between 2 buns. They hype was even about the sandwich. They hype was for the attention.

Idk about that one chief lol that ***** was hittin

I’m not gonna say it deserved to be stabbed over

But that ***** definitely deserved some hype

Yall's gonna have to show me on paper they changed the sandwich on paper(not reddit or youtube). Im 1000% sure its in yall's head.

 

[checks mcgee]

On paper? Show you the flavor of a sandwich on paper?

You think multiple mfs just saying this **** for no reason?

First was bigger, juicier and more flavorful

And yes pause

It’s not uncommon when you have to make a billion sandwiches for the quality to go down lol

 

[tr1ll]

Yes. You ever heard of the Mandela Effect? The mind is an amazing thing, man.

 

[you go boy]

when the sandwich debut it was a hit... but since it was selling out they made more and its good just not the same the first time....I am not sure what they changed

 

[checks mcgee]

All I’m saying is I work across the street from one and I done had that sandwich many many times

And I was a fat mf

When they had that first run, it was like a few weeks before it came back and that second run wasn’t the same.

guess you it’s up to you to take my word on it

 

[tr1ll]

Its the human mind, bro. Its never you, it's always them, but aight.

 

[Arthur Shelby]

Limited release vs mass produced always available item yes the. Quality will change and drop

this a regular and expected occurrence with brands across the board

Mandela Effect / all in the mind is a wild take

"I never had it but I'm 1000% sure you guys are wrong."

I can't stand mf'ers like that. You have no ****ing idea what you're talking about. Just sit down. Print this **** out on paper.


Business Insider had tried the first sandwich, and called it "a true revelation." But when they saw people tweeting that their sandwiches had seemed smaller than the original, they had to investigate. And even though Popeyes has been mum on the whole thing, they noticed a discrepancy — the original sandwich was a whopping 690 calories, while the relaunched sandwich was, according to menu boards, 660 calories.

Whaaaaat?

Lol show the rest of the article.

Some have said the second sandwich — while still good — just doesn't hold together like the original. The pickles were different (maybe?) and there was less mayo. Maybe. Popeyes did confirm that nothing had changed, so what's the deal? Are rushed and overworked employees finally hitting exhaustion levels? Is it a variation in stores? Popeyes isn't saying.

Because there was no change to the recipe.

You found A change. Good for you, but you do realize the calories can change without effecting taste. The cut of the chicken change the calories. Im talking about the TASTE. Maybe I should've been more clear. We do need anyone running their blood pressure up.

There never was a change.

They hype and newness wore off and people's tastebuds started being honest with them. It's a good fast food sandwich. I'm not getting it any other day than Sunday. Coping to make them feel good about their decision to wait in long lines at Popeyes for a sandwich.

Correct, the chicken changed. It's not as big. That means the sandwich changed. As I said earlier, it's still good. I don't taste a huge difference. It's just not as huge as it once was.
