Once Upon a Time: Late or Nah

Am I late to the Chicken sandwich debate, challenge, competition opinion between Chick-fil-A and Popeye's? 


Once upon a time when the blogging community was, robust, full of lots more participants  the thing (thanks Instagram 😏), I am sure this commotion would have made several rounds as a topic of review and opinion in blogville.


I observed A LOT of commotion on social media a few Months ago, debating which chicken sandwich  is better of the two franchises.


I have had Chick-fil-A too many times to count.  I like the values of the Christian franchise owner and as a result I default going there for "fast food"


I've had my eye on the Popeye's chicken sandwich after seeing the commercials earlier in the spring/summer but didn't make a move to get one.  I also started noticing especially on the weekends at some point passing by Popeye's and seeing jam packed parking lots, all due to the release of the chicken sandwich!  In addition many memes on Instagram and people sharing their reviews. Of course my curiosity was heightened but I was not in a rush.


One day for lunch over the summer I decided to go to a Popeye's near work to finally try their sandwich......unfortunately they ran out.  So several months passed up until today, and all the commotion seemed to have died down so I decided to give it another try to obtain this latest sensation.


So, Yeah I guess I'm late to the game. Do you want to know my thoughts? my verdict?


As mentioned I've had every chicken sandwich on "Chick's" menu and enjoy them all.  I tried the Popeye's chicken sandwich today and it was good. The meat was big, juicy, crispy with a hint of spic (I chose the spicy one).


Does this mean I will select Popeye's as my first choice whenever I want a chicken sandwich? No, I'm still committed to Chick-fil-A....I like the Christian principles the founder and will continue to support them.

So what are your thoughts, have you tried both? do you have a winner between the two chicken sandwiches?

Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time in Blogland aka Blogsville, in a  community that once thrived and kept us engaged and entertained, there were trending topics, people sharing random personal happenings and journeys, stories, and suus aka gist.


If once upon a time were now, a trending topic would be the new CBS comedy sitcom series Bob ❤ Abisola, that premiered in September.


I saw it advertised a while ago and just got to watch it for the first time last night.  Abisola is an authentic African/Nigerian.   I used the word authentic purposefully because I remember days gone by when ethnic roles were played by non ethnic actors trying to mimic the accent but the accent was always an epic fail and a mockery (although sometimes funny) of mostly the Jamaican or African accent.  This is not the case however with this show, which was quite refreshing.


Bob ❤ Abisola is a comedic examination of immigrant life in America. "After coming to America from Nigeria to find a better life for herself and her son Dele, Abishola lives in a small apartment with her super-protective relatives, Auntie Olu and Uncle Tunde. Undaunted by Abishola’s lack of initial interest or the vast differences in their backgrounds, Bob is determined to win Abishola’s heart."




Have you heard of this show or seen it? What are your thoughts?
