Cane’s started at LSU in Baton Rouge, they sell chicken tenders. And they are growing like crazy.
I drove by one the other day shortly before the Saints game and the drive through line was around the block

Although that looks incredible, I grew up in NOLA down the street from Al Copeland , the owner of Popeyes. Sooo… that being said you probably know where I stand … #teampopeyes

Come to think of it, I remember a bit of advice from a flag designer that almost applies to logos too - or probably should, anyway. Basically it was: Draw your design in full detail on a piece of paper one inch by two inches. If that’s hard to do, the design is wrong. (I forget if those were the exact dimensions he gave, but it’s the right range and the right idea.)
EDIT: Logos obviously can’t be as strict as flags in this regard.

Full name is ‘Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers’ and that’s really all they sell. There’s one on a major street near our son’s house and the drive thru line usually extends off the property onto that street (and that was even more the case BEFORE Covid).
I went to one with a friend a couple of years ago in Henderson, NV. I wasn’t impressed.

I agree with you, there have to be a lot of reasons other than normal consumer preference going into people’s current choices.
It’s fine to argue over who won the most states, but KFC got 206 electoral college votes!

New addition: we have Cain right here in NJ:
We’re fostering him from Husky House. He’s a rescue that arrived with two broken legs from being hit by a car. Hence the cone. Now back to your regularly scheduled chicken sandwhiches.

He’s a cutie!
I LOVE HIM! TY for “fostering” him. (I hope it’s a fail)

I was very disappointed in Drew’s Nashville Hot chicken. Was not hot at all and overall so-so.

McD’s used to have a buttermilk batter chicken sandwich which was good, but I think they discontinued it. I like Popeye’s and Chick Fil A, but also like the Wendy’s hot and spicy. Another one that is not bad is the chicken sandwich at I think it is Royal Farms, a new Gas Station / Convenience store chain moving into NJ from MD.

There’s a Royal Farms coming to the intersection of Route 70 and Route 88, on the westbound side of 70. It’s the former location of The Jersey Paddler if anyone is familiar with the store.

We tried the KFC version today: not bad, but no comparison to Popeye’s. In our opinion, KFC is smaller, chicken nice & crispy, but only about 1/2" thick. Popeyes almost looked like a whole half breast. Spicy sauce on KFC very good, pickles better. All things considered, Popeyes gets our votes

Wow. Could this be the same Royal Farms grocery store i grew up with in Queens, NYC in the 60’s-70’s?
Maybe I’m “crazy”. I couldn’t find it, but I found this.
I may be crazy, but I’m not delusional. There was such a thing.
