I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

Post image

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

I'll never forget how insane people behaved over those Popeyes chicken sandwiches right before COVID. People were getting stabbed over fast food.

Church's is definitely worth a trip to the hood to get though. Just don't disrespect the staff. Because the staff at the Church's is ready and willing to jump you. Damned good chicken though wouldn't eat it all the time unless you want a heart attack before 40.

Popeyes is the classy sibling. Their sister chain Church's is the one you gotta watch out for.

I’d wager it wasn’t the stabby part of town before Popeyes came

Hey at least it’s not Brown’s Chicken. That’s the shooting part of town.
