Since all this meming about whether Chick Fil A and Popeyes is better is going around, can I just ask? Why does Chick Fil A act like they own fried chicken put in between bread?
-
I mean, Chick-fIl-A chicken sandwiches are some good shit, and while they're a national brand, they're particularly concentrated in the Southeastern US. While brining their chicken in pickle juice and pressure frying create their chicken's unique flavor, they claim that they invented the actual "chicken sandwich" in the 1940s. It's an unsubstantiated claim, and hot chicken between two slices of bread certainly existed long before them.
As someone from the Southeast, Chick-fil-A is leagues beyond most of the fast-food options in the region when it comes to service and food quality. They invest a lot in integrating with their surrounding communities and are fast-food havens for the upper-middle class (who can justify the price hike relative to McD or BK for quality.) When I was part of my youth town-council several years ago, we worked exclusively with them for community events.
On the other side, Popeyes has been perceived a lot differently compared to Chick-fil-A, with deep-southern influence and a lower-class demographic (relative to CfA, McD is the most affordable tmk.) While their new sandwich comes at a premium relative to other items on their menu, having something on-par with CfA's "pride and joy" has stirred a lot of interest. It contests with CfA's cushy spot as "America's Restaurant".
There's, oddly enough, some "political" nuance to this related to CfA that I'm clearly dodging b/c forum rules. If you Google it, you'll find a ton of stuff.
As for my opinion, CfA's quality is pretty much the same nationwide, and they have pretty high ff standards (for both sanitation and food.) I usually seek them out if I'm on-the-road while traveling. That consistency is attractive to me, but local cuisines/"hole-in-the-walls" are always my first choice if I'm familiar with the area.
I've had Popeyes only a few times b/c they're not as common where I'm at, but they're pretty damn good as well.

i thought i'd be able to bring out that one tweet. because above poster beat me to it and with a much better explanation than i would have offered simply from observation, so i'm going to say it anyways.

Well this isn't something I'd expect from Vietnam. A full produced music video for a Hat Van song (Hat Van is traditional poetry set to music to accompany Shamanism). Even if it is pretty condensed (traditionally, Hat Van songs go on for hours.) it's pretty cool to see something more authentic than that cheap sounding pop music they play during new years lol. I think this is a cool way to preserve traditional arts and I love the work that went into this.

I think Youtube is gonna bring back the star rating system soon. They just asked me to rate a video I watched a super long time ago.
Now if only they could bring back the old youtube in full lol

Can we appreciate Kyounosuke Yoshitate? I never see anyone talk about him. I want to be able to sing like him, although it's probably not physically possible for me lol
