    Not really. Popeyes specifically is more popular with black people, supposedly. Probably more of a location thing than anything else.

    Personally I think Bojangles is better but it’s simple fact they’re both better than the genocidal crackers at Chick-fil-A and Cane’s.

    Is Cane’s specifically linked to genocide? Idk but it feels like a safe assumption.

      I don’t know if this is true, but it should be more popular with everyone.

      I’m lucky enough to have all 3 nearby.

      Popeyes has the best fries, hands down. They should become the standard all other fries are measured against. Their chicken is the best IMHO, but not such a clear standout from Canes. Canes has the best dipping sauce, and that Texas toast is magical on its own. They make a decent cole-slaw too. IMHO their tenders are a little under-seasoned, but they’re very consistent with breading and texture. Bojangles is last on my list. I had them once and was not impressed enough with any aspect of the meal to warrant a second trip.

      i also hear that it’s fried chicken as a whole that’s more popular, however I work at a grocery store and I haven’t seen that much of a ratio of black people buying fried chicken.
      I do only work at one store, and don’t even work in the self checkout though, so my data is probably biased.

      I will say however, our store has little fried chicken bites about the size of a popped popcorn and it’s mostly children who eat them.
