All of it except the hot brown I guess.

I’ll go to Ramsey for that.

We have Publix, but it isn't anything special. Their chicken is overrated. Most of the vegetables they fix are out of a can.

Believe the one Piggly Wiggly has a bunch of retired lunchroom ladies working in it. They can cook.

You used to be able to get some decent food in gas stations. I knew a couple of places near Biloxi and they had the Dinner Bell restaurant in D'Iberville that was excellent and low priced. Aunt Jenny's in Ocean Springs. There was a deli in D'Iberville in the back of a gas station that had hot po' boys with gravy.

Little gas station in Woolmarket the man smoked hamburgers and some other items. It was really almost a hamburger steak he would sell you.

Don't think a lot of them survived the hurricanes.

Piggly Wiggly deli in my area is very good. Lots of homemade items every day like cornbread dressing (not stuffing).

Some meat items they have every day and some they have once or twice on certain days each week.

It is several dollars cheaper than fast food places as well.



Grocery store delis can be very good. Most people know about Publix deli...they are excellent. We have a local chain in our area called KJs and their deli is one of the best meat and 2 lunches you can get. They do salmon patties almost as good as my mama and granny....

The grocery store deli is also far cheaper than fast food in most cases.

Are they as slow in Kentucky as they are in Louisiana? You can pretty much set up a tailgate in the drive thru lane in BR.

I ordered Uber Eats pick up at Popeyes here in Houston. I show up. It takes the workers 5 minutes to acknowledge me then another 20 minutes to get me my order that was supposed to be ready when I arrived.

It’s ghetto. The workers are ghetto. The clientele is ghetto. Is perfectly Louisiana.

Chicken. It’s horrendously bad.
Like saying Taco Bell
Is true Mexican food

Believe it or not, the Wendy's by my house is even worse than Popeyes.

Wendy's near me didn't survive Covid. Always had terrible service before too.

There are trucks that deliver to 3 or 4 different brands out of the same trucks.

Believe that group owns Taco Bell and KFC.

I've always said that it's the only fast food that you can't make better at home. Unfortunately, I can no longer eat fried chicken at all.

The Popeyes in Kentucky are in fact exactly the same as the Popeyes in Louisiana.

But in Louisiana they're considered fine dining.

If Popeyes had Chick-Fil-A's service and cleanliness, they'd take over the fast food world.

The actual food is, I believe, the best in the fast food game.

Wendy's went to shite after Dave Thomas died. I haven't eaten there in a long time.

I'd rather Niki's West or Picadilly if we're going hot bar, but there are a ton of hole in the wall plate lunch places that are awesome. Chicken Palace in Mansura, LA has Gar Balls on the hot bar at least once a week.
