    I had one yesterday… the spices were really nice. The chicken did have a bit of a tough texture at the surface, and i think that is because, even though it is not heavily battered, it IS fried. And tbh i didn’t even mind the texture. It might be the novelty of it, but I might even like it more than the original.

Within the time it took for the image to be processed by my eyes, travel through my central nervous system, and eventually understood by my cerebral cortex, my eyes had to perform two double takes. This amounted to a total of four (4) takes. Just thought you’d know.

    I've been getting the five piece blackened tenders ever since Popeye's started offering them...they are always hot, moist and juicy, because they don't cook them until they're ordered and it takes 3-4 minutes extra to get them, but well worth the wait, to me...those blackened tenders paired with their blackened ranch dip is my favorite fast food meal! I wouldn't want a bun getting in the way of that! I think they should offer the blackened ranch dip in a bit thicker sauce for those who want this sandwich, instead of mayo only...just sayin'! I'm sure if the blackened fillet in this sandwich has been cooked awhile, like on the ride home, it would probably lose some of the moisture and get tough...

It was done, but very tender. The pickles and roll were in harmony. Popeye's is so inconsistent, I'm sure it varies by location and time of day. I went right at lunch rush.

    This is the first time in my long viewership that I find you reviewing an item that I've already tried for myself! Unfortunately, to judge from my experience, the quality of product you tested here must in fact be representative of the norm for this sandwich. As flavorful as the blackened chicken is, it is overwhelmingly tough and dry, with a stringy, rubbery aspect. As such, I find I must echo your opinion here in every aspect.

    I really love your vocabulary when talking. It helps me to improve mine since I deliver classes. Also, I try to repeat your phrases to reach that fluency but I can't because I'm not native but I do my best. Thanks for your reviews, I find them very entertaining. However, I think that reviewing chicken sandwiches is not so challenging at all since some of them, maybe, are almost the same differing in the quality of the meat or seasoning. Whenever I taste a chicken patty, I sense a little bit of bitterness from time to time, and I was wondering if it happened to you before. In my country, Argentina, we have a different type of patty certainly known as "milanesa" which can be a slice of meat (cattle, chicken, fish) covered with bread crumbs, then fried mostly. Thanks in advance for your patience. Long days and pleasant nights to you :)

      In 2020 they took away the select breakfast items that used to be sold all day and you could only get them during breakfast. The bagels have been gone for a long while and I don’t think they are coming back here. In the 618. The only good thing at McDonald’s that’s worth the price is the triple cheese imo and that still only gets me going 1 time a month.

But in addition to having pickles when I asked to not have pickles, it was a bit chewy. Plus, the bun was probably 1/3 larger than the piece of chicken. Flavor was good.
