I have never ever understood the love for Canes


It was meant for college students who could pay $5 for a chicken finger meal (with 5 fingers and your choice of canes sauce or honey mustard). And they were open until 3:00 am.

Many of us ate Canes in college and still eat it. Now, it provides a different fast food option over hamburgers or tacos. It's a drive thru chicken finger option, which is great to have.

Yes, they took away a chicken finger and now prices are high, but it's still a good drive thru chicken finger option. Who doesn't like chicken fingers and french fries? They may not be the best chicken finger in the world but they are the best fast food chicken finger option that I have locally.

It's also a fantastic story of a local business built from the ground up and turned into a national chain. Todd and his partner literally fished in Alaska to raise money to open the first Canes.

I've never understood the shade some of you throw on Canes. Why? Becuase they are popular and you don't like them? If you don't like the fingers and if it's too much money for you, simply don't go. But why do you have to knock down those who like it?

you took a whole lot of liberties in my opinion of not understanding why folks like chicken fingers so much.

You’re right, it is a good local story which is why it saddens me to have to cross it off my list of options when i go the fast food route a couple times a month…. Also, it isnt just national- it’s international .. last i saw , there were Canes locations in the Middle East.. they may have expended to other parts of the world as well since then, im not sure .
