This is a dumb post
All of these taste completely different
You must eat a lot off ass to say that
Holy shit that’s hilarious.
I’m not afraid to say I LOVE the Popeye’s version.
That Popeyes sandwich is lit tho…
Pelicana missing
I must be missing something here, because I’ve had Popeye’s and it’s just a chicken sandwich like all the others. It’s not like they’re making it from scratch like they would at some small business.
Yeah, but the difference between the Popeyes chicken sandwich and the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had is not a lot, and the difference between the Popeyes chicken sandwich and that overcooked piece of breaded leather from McDonalds is fucking lightyears.
Am I the only one who thinks the Popeyes sandwich is the greasiest fuckin thing ever? Everyone raved about it but I couldn’t finish it, I really gave it an honest try. It was gross.
Capitalism (here meaning a market economy dominated by a powerful investor class) breeds a dozen different companies trying to differentiate themselves with minor variations. Sometimes those variations lead to actual, legitimate improvements that are then spread throughout the industry.
Most of the time it just leads to one wondering what the fuck the difference is between ‘Cheerios’ and ‘Cheery Os’ in the cereal aisle at the grocery store.

it needs infinite innovation and growth otherwise capitalism is failed. no chicken sandwich evolution = doomed philosophy
I love the fact that there are people saying that all these are different and they love having that choice.
So the general vibe I’m getting from the comments is that Pope’s chick is simultaneously the best and worst chicken.
Having lots of options for chicken sandwiches doesn’t seem to be a problem with capitalism, and one could always decline to eat a chicken sandwich, or make your own. Wealth inequality and special interests controlling the government are much more of a problem.
And to all the libertarians present: This would be even worse if things were totally unregulated.
Capitalism itself rarely invents new things, but it does optimize existing things quite well
Though what it tries to optimize it for isn’t always what is best for the consumer
Chicken sandwiches used to be so much better. Now it occasionally feels like I’m biting into a tire. I don’t understand this business strategy.
I don’t understand this business strategy.
You still bought it and they saved money. Profit!
Its simple, capitalism treats the consumer like cattle, and the optimization of profit drives them to replace real quality products with cheaper and cheaper substitutes over time until you’re expected to bite into that tire and go “wow, this chicken is delicious”
I love the mobile game version of this because it shows how everyone just rips each other off. This is more of an example of food companies optimizing a tried and true formula.
Maybe it’s because this is posted in c/politicalmemes but I think y’all are thinking to deeply about something that should be a mild chuckle and then moving on.
