I love the food there. It's not authentic but neither is Taco Bell and I love them both.

But, why would you offer Ghost Pepper Wings and then do commercials that state "well, they really aren't that hot"?

Pick a lane. Commit or just get rid of them.

What do you mean it's not authentic? It's chicken and it's fried.

As long as you're getting actual pieces and not "nuggets" or the sandwich.

I'm not sure about KFC though.

It's real and the recipe was stolen from a guy who made arguably the best chicken in New Orleans, ultimately making only fried chicken at Jaques-Imo's for a few years.

Alright. Maybe "authentic" wasn't the correct term.

But if I was looking for a good Southern-style Cajun meal (and I always am), it would not be my first choice.

But it is pretty good and convenient. I just didn't understand why they promote crazy hot wings and put out commercials telling people to relax, it's not that hot.

It's something to look forward to on a slow Friday afternoon at least.

I posted it at 8am.

A guy can't have a take on a Popeye's commercial without being attacked?

What kind of world do we live in now? Hot wings aren't hot. Presidents are being indicted. UFOs are everywhere and the sky is turning red.

It's insanity.

Until this thread I really hadn’t paid attention to the actual content of the commercials. I have to say the Doc is right. The term Ghost Pepper attracts interest from heat lovers and should be reserved for food that meets that threshold. Flavorful, I’m afraid, just doesn’t cut it.

Shouldn't they be made from spinach?

This isn't about fast food.

Are you even paying attention?

It's about society and the role we need to play in it. Don't tell me something and then simultaneously say that your perception of that concept is not what it is purported to be.

I feel I've been very clear on this point.

I am going to get it for lunch.
