For some reason chicken, especially chicken wing prices have shot up a ton in the Covid world. Canes wasn’t worth it before Covid but there’s no reason a pack of wings doubled in price in two years.

Local restaurant I go to in a town outside Baton Rouge has a chicken tender box with 8 tenders (regular size) and fries for $8.25 after tax...

No I will not tell you where! My secret. It is already crowded enough.

Popeyes food is disgusting

Canes food is consistently good

But what really sets them apart is their employees.

Our elected officials are to blame, not the companies. As a business owner all my costs have increased and I have raised prices. It’s artificial due to political policies.
But we are also still a free market so take your business elsewhere rather than complain. Guess what, everything and every business is overpriced now.
