Popeyes Onion Rings

do you think they hand slice the onions then batter and fry them?

I don't know about hand sliced, but they were previously fresh battered and really good.

They've all gone the frozen route now, unfortunately.

they were grown in the Arctic?

Still want to know if they charge extra since they are now cheep arse rings where as before they were of decent quality.

thanks

Shame - they were really good. Poboy Express has some rockin' ones that are similar to old Popeye's (as best I remember them - hadn't had them in years, but they were very good).

In the good old days, when Copeland still owned Popeye's, the biscuits were edible, the chicken was spicy and affordable and you always ordered your rings 1st. The person taking the order would yell "rings" and they would drop a batch in the fryer. They were always hot and fresh when the rest of your order was completed.

I think we had Reagan in the White House and the Socialists were not about to take over in a bloodless coup.

this is a wide spread upsetting movement. I LOVED popeyes' batter before, now their onion rings suck. It was bad enough that none of the Popeyes in BR sells onion rings, but now the other ones that had onion rings now sell those crappy excuses for onion rings.

I remember when they started making those "squished" biscuits rather than the old rough ones.
