Mother of God that looks good.  We've never had Caines.  We did have Zaxby's for the first time a couple weeks ago, and it was better than Chic Filet & Popeye's

Zaxby's sucks.

The 2 or 3 Raising Cane's that I went to were good.  Tenders tasted more fresh than most other fast food joints, on par with Chick Fil A.  Perhaps better - seemed more fresh, but admittedly less seasoning.    Maybe you went to a shit location?

You're saying the mechanically separated chicken sitting for hours under a heat lamp is better?  LOL

That is enough for 2 people.  Not a fan of canes, too bland, but sometimes I’ll get it bc it’s real chicken and close by and dip in buffalo sauce.  You think that’s high?  Wait til you pay almost $4 for French fries at McD’s.  Went there first time in ages for just fries.  Almost $4.  Never again.

Cane's is fucking delicious. But I eat there a lot less now that the chicken's much smaller and prices are higher.

There’s a chicken shortage coming
Covid plus paying people to sit at home

But now we’ve got a few more million illegals coming in , and the chicken producers will be paying all of them under the table and probably at sub minimum wage and 12+ hour days.  
But the FDA inspectors won’t give a shit

Silm's is so much better than Cain's!  So many more sauces.  So many more sides.  

I do like Cain's fries better.  But Slim's Mac N Cheese beats all fries, so....

I would go there more if I could just get a box of chicken and a water.  I don't need a lb of fries and bread.

Torchy's is amazing. Both fajita versions, the fried avocado and the Republican being my favorites. The one in Highlands Ranch CO is better than any of the Austin locations, for that matter so is the one in Allen TX

Ate there once and that’s only because a friend was buying and she was willing to sit in the the hour long drive thru line.

Foosackly's is way better.

I would say their chicken fingers are better, their coleslaw is better, their fries are better, and they have like 5 or 6 made in store sauces.  You can get your fingers buffalo style (coated in their buffalo sauce) and have some ranch with them.  You can add bacon and queso to your fries.  Their customer service is like Chicfila as well.

Canes sauce is slightly better than Foo Sauce but as I said Foosackly has 6 sauces.  Canes toast is also a little better.  

Foosackly's is a small southern chain.

No, I said tenders, not Chicken McNuggets. Canes is ultra bland and "fresh" is just a matter of how the chicken was chemically prepared before you ate it. Real fresh chicken actually tastes like something besides the flour and oil it was fried in.

Torchy's closed in solidarity with that "A day without illegals" bullshit about 5 years ago. They are overpriced hipster tacos in any case.

Yes, I do. Perhaps you just frequent ghetto ass gas stations without decent food.


I stand corrected.

To be fair I haven't touched gas station food in ages, I learned to avoid it many years ago.  It's always chains that have the same cheap Sysco food that's been sitting under heat lamps for god knows how long.  

*Exception I did have a sandwich at Buc-ee's a while back, which I totally forgot about.  Not bad.

I’ve been to one in Austin and a few in the Denver metro area.  All good.  For the home version, insert Raising Canes strips in the taco pictured on the left. (I have to recreate Torchy’s because there are none in my area.)

I've had Zaxby's many times in North carolina. I've had Zaxby's four times in Texas and canes twice.  Little Zaxby's in Texas was better than both locations of canes, but the Zaxby's in North Carolina was better than the location in texas.

The wholesale cost of boneless / skinless chicken has more than doubled since January of this year.  My bulk price was $ 1.05 a lb in early January.  My cost this week for the same cuts, same amount from the same supplier was $ 2.25 a lb.  I buy and sell a lot of chicken, and track the prices closely in order to remain a competitive supplier to my customers.

But there is no inflation, and you are crazy to think there is.
