Raising canes is my favorite!! This is making me so hungry for it 🥹🤤
That impression sounds like Strongbad not Popeye.
Should have been chicken shack vs raising canes
Lol I always thought cane's was a vegas thing… they felt so local with all the unlv and just vegas stuff oops
Both have the worst chicken, so dry and bland. KFC is better and Bojangles whoops all of them.
Gotta get that Cane's Toast done "bobs" which is Butter Both Sides. Get that toast on both sides.
I worked at Canes in high school. Only managers can know the recipe and make the sauce. Made in buckets than pumped into each little container daily. Great sauce. Great toast but gotta ask for butter on both sides. Also the sandwich is definitely not worth getting on the bun gotta do the toast which you can ask for most people do why they didn’t do that from the beginning is a mystery. Their chicken is cooked well but needs flavor for sure! And their fries are garbage. I love Popeyes in spite of their hellish wait times and overcooked chicken bc of the fries and Mardi Gras mustard. Church’s has better biscuits. I wish you could mix and match fast food to get the perfect meal.
The mayonaisse discussion hurt my brain. Josh, while insisting he says it with 2 syllables, repeatedly pronounced it with 3
Yall…. if you have one near you you have to go get slim chicken! It has the flavor AND the freshness!
I hate the cane sauce. I get their honey mustard when I go there. But I prefer cane's over popeyes.Popeyes. Also crinkle cut fries are my favorite. 😢
As a Korean American, Josh calling coleslaw American banchan made me realize why i like coleslaw so much 😂
Raising Canes is garbage…
Everything at Cane's just tastes like Cane's Sauce, because Cane's Sauce is the only thing at Cane's with any seasoning on it.
We should get a Cane's sometime this year so I'll get to compare.
hell yeah josh, blackened ranch and popeyes are easily god-tier.
also nicole mischievous IS indeed two syllables – there is no second I and it is not spelled "mischievious"
Popeye is good when its good but Canes is always consistently better with the chicken but the fries at Canes are lacking big time, tired of the soggy fries messing up the meal
My dad loved the French Connection!!!😂
Cane's sauce is mid tier comeback sauce (comeback is an s tier chicken sauce though so the sauce is still good) and their chicken breading is to soft, but the chicken is solid and seasoned well enough. Popeye's chicken is painfully underseasoned always, but their blackened ranch is good.

Y'all know y'all throwing shade on souther grandmas by saying that about biscuits lol
Know y'all don't get exposed to the real good stuff in Cali and nothing like elevating through adding but if you can't raw dog a biscuit without extras then that's a sh*t biscuit… a "shitscuit" if you will 😂
Just started watching but your literally about to split your fans in half down south let's see how this goes 😅😂😅
The first time I tried canes, I nailed the canes sauce. The key spice is old bay, mayo and fancy ketchup. Heinze doesn't work
You can request your chicken sandwich be put on Texas toast at Canes 👀
Down here in louisiana some call it minezz???wtf
You can’t eat canes without their sauce; it’s the blandest tender ever. So without their sauce Canes closes. Popeyes is way better
Listened to this at work today and now i wanna watch it for the food lol
@23:30 Leaving your sugary-salty coleslaw around makes it more limp and wet, not crunchy. If you want crunchy, the only option is fresher.
Caines, 100%
@37:40 Americans don't only eat eggs for breakfast though…it's weird that you think that
Why has the tone of his voice changed so drastically
I’m a raising canes super fan and I’ve never been disappointed. Alternatively I’m literally always disappointed by popeyes.
So odd watching this when the sun is down. I normally watch these episodes while doing my makeup on non-work days, taking my time and just listening/watching. But it’s 9:48pm rn…hovering between watching it and waiting until tomorrow for when I apply my makeup. Don’t know where this goes but I like both but when it comes to the flavor of the chicken, Popeyes wins, no question. 😘
Guys Cane’s isn’t seasoned poorly it’s intentionally under seasoned, specifically because it’s meant to go with the sauce if they added more it’d be too much, like would literally be worse same with the fries the whole point is to use the sauce
Nicole is digusting as f
The only way to order at Canes:
1. All chicken extra crispy
2. All fries extra crispy
3. Toast buttered both sides
4. Add a packet of Louisiana hot sauce to the canes sauce
Thank me later
I am really not into podcasts I wish these were uploaded on a different channel because I keep getting excited for new cooking content 🙁
