We tried CFA the other day and it was two-lanes deep. 45min wait at a minimum. I left.

For my daughter’s birthday, I drove 50 miles round trip to Boardman for Raising Cane’s chicken fingers. Her birthday is the only day I would do such a thing.

One more thing we don’t have in Pittsburgh.

I think it's called Raising Canes because their sauce contains ketchup, mayo, mustard and cocaine. It's addictive for sure.

its also something you can make at home. I imagine that Cane (if that is a real person) was probably some bro at a frat house in Columbus "invented" it then decide to open a fast book place with a bad pun.

that said I wish they were in pittsburgh

Tried the KFC chicken sammich and I have to give it a big thumbs up. Simple, but very effective. Fries were also a nice surprise, although a bit salty.

Just had it for dinner myself, and I agree. This one’s a contender.

Spent 20 minutes in line, with 15 of those waiting for them to get change for the idiot in front of me who paid with a $50 bill.

KFC fries in Australia were the best fast food fries I think I've had. Wonder if they shared some knowledge with the mericans

Gave Popeye's a third chance. Great customer service this time. The spicy chicken sandwich was not good though. First 4 bites were all sharp breading. I won't blame it to much for such a misshapen piece. But then the dried out extra thick hunk of breast on the other end wasn't good either obviously. Overall I think the sauce was decent and I'd probably like the breading on a good piece of chicken. But the consistency of Wendy's spicy means I"ll have trouble going back to Popeye's. Even McDonald's spicy chicken was easily better than this one. Their fries were surprisingly good though

Tudor’s biscuit world has a superior breakfast than Tim Horton’s.

I had McDonalds crispy chicken sandwich last night and maybe it was because it was later in the evening but it was lukewarm garbage. Would not ever recommend.

Still haven’t had Popeye’s. Still like the hate chicken option.

McDonald’s in Mexico has potato wedges with cheese sauce and they’re delicious. Why have potato wedges never caught on in the US? The one fast food joint in the US that actually served them got rid of them for mediocre fries.

This. KFC's old potato wedges were top notch, too.

Got breakfast from McD's this morning and somehow managed to order the sausage and egg biscuit without cheese.

That was some real Sahara action in my mouth. Was not happy.

Also I noticed over time that the main thing I like from Wendy's breakfast is the potatoes which are straight fire, best in the ff potatoes breakfast game imo.

But the more I've tried the various sammiches and such, it just doesn't hold up across the board.

They may have the tastiest sausage patties, but the surrounding pieces are inferior to others so it cancels out.

I'd like to get the McDonald's biscuit, egg, and cheese w/ the Wendy's sausage patty and potatoes. That would be basically perfect for me.

Basically 100% I still get Wendy's but their sandwiches suck. I get the sausage egg and cheese burritos which are pretty great when made perfectly which is half the time.
