Went to 5 fast food joints ordered standard chicken sandwiches. All within 10 min from house . 2 cars to pick up, reheated all sandwiches at once in wrapping for 5 min. At 375 degrees. 4 judges with 5 categories Crispiness, Bun , Chicken , flavor, and overall …based on sliding scale 1-5.
Personal note none of judges including myself eat fast food. But we all enjoy fried chicken. Mogo, Kmart Food court, Drew’s are pretty much the standard for me.
Just thought something fun to do on a rainy day off.
Thanks for taking 5 for the team! Do you think the results would have been much different without reheating? I love the Popeye sandwich hot, but I like it at room temp too!
Husband is going for Chick-fil-A right now. Getting one from Popeyes is still a crapshoot in my town . I’ve had a once out of three tries success rate.
I’d agree with top two but could flip them depending on the day. I’d have put BK a bit higher points wise on a day when you get a fresh made one, esp considering with the app you can get two and two fries for 4.99 any day
I’m similar with regards to the top two. I like the Chik Fila actual chicken more, but I like the spicy of the Popeye flavor a little better. So I could switch them depending on the day and or my appetite.
I think I have a 20 year string of not eating at Macdonalds since the kids stopped showing interest in happy meals.
Not really sure why I did the Wendy’s as well.
I’ve had the BK’s before awhile ago and thought it worthy for another try.
All 5 places and McDonalds are within 8 miles of each other on Rt 9 along the old Bridge - Morganville corridor. Minimal time and investment for a bit of amusement.
I’m very happy with this one from Wendy’s:
