She also has white workers behind her...the tv commercial is obviously not realistic

Do the commercials actually say that the person is the CEO? I honestly don't know.

What I do know is that I'm more likely to buy fried chicken from a black person, and apparently everyone else is too or she wouldn't be in the commercial. Whether that is racist or not.

Lady 1 looks like she would cook you greasy fried chicken and dense buttery biscuits.
Lady 2 looks like she would serve you PB & J, no crust.

Thank you very friggin much.

My household has Popeye's once every two weeks. Would be once a week if I had my way.

If I go to Popeye's I'm more likely to get good chicken if the lady in picture #1 is cooking it.

Hell, if I go to any restaurant in South Louisiana, I want to see someone like the woman in picture one cooking it. I know for a fact it will be good.

I think the smooth talking spokeswoman goes by the name Col. Panders.

Popeye's has two CEO's. Like their chicken you can select dark or white.
