We just got them in the Harrisburg area. I know there's some hype. Justified?

When Popeyes came in, I tried it.. Seemed like more breading than chicken and greeasy.

Ah the gold old days when if I'd help my grandmother with some yard work or other physical labor, I'd get my two favorites. Fried chicken and lemon meringue pie.

I’ve tried the one in State College twice, and I don’t understand the appeal. The chicken is very bland and the regular sauce is just your standard mayo & ketchup mix and the honey mustard is cloyingly sweet and does not taste of honey or mustard. On the plus side, their unsweetened iced tea is delicious. I have been in several time just to get the tea.

I’ve had it at the Pittsburgh location a few times. I thought it was alright. Not greasy, decent portions. The Cane’s sauce is Chick-Fil-A adjacent

First, we get the one description as "cloyingly sweet" and another as "adjacent". Can we assume off-season boredom has cause you guys to be watching Food Network too?

I admit it, I know Bobby Flay's favorite pepper is Piquilo.
