- Matt and Calli square off to debate who has the better fried chicken -- K.F.C. or Popeyes. Will the Louisiana brand take down the Kentucky brand? Watch and find out.

Y’all should start putting poles on your video so we can vote
Potato you’re right
YES!
I believe you mean polls. Poles are what your momma dances around to pay for beauty school. Polls are what you vote in.
or polls
@@rowynnecrowley1689 You mean like Wojciech Jaruzelski? Yeah, he'd probably be into that.
KFC is great in Jamaica and China. But in the US Popeyes wins out.
Haha its like seeing a celeb among the comments
KFC is considered by some locals as 'fine dining' in Jamaica, like a place you take a date. When Popeyes first came out, they had a place on Canal that was one of the few places open late enough you could get "food" after a night of excessive self=-medication in the Quarter. The chicken was suspect in those days (much better now IMO), but he RB&R was cheap and hit the spot.
Bless your heart!
I'm from South Africa, KFC is amazing there... The colonel burger and wings are superb! Here in America... The "chicken sandwich" was only added a few months ago 🤣... Popeye's is rather delicious!
KFC in the U.K. sucks. Bland, and they serve chips (French fries) with everything. Rather you want it or not.
she is obviously swayed by nostalgic memories from childhood, but there is no way anyone can REALLY think KFC is better chicken....
I do
I do as well. Popeyes ain't nearly as good
My memories was Popeyes chicken.
Yeah KFC was far better in the 70s and early 80s. It went way downhill after that. I don't even go near one now.
KFC chicken used to be so good even their cold chicken was delicious.
Neither of the hosts on this are old enough to remember when KFC was actually good.
It all went to hell in the early '80s.
I haven't had a good piece of chicken from that place since then.
Also, Popeye's in my opinion has a better menue .
Absolutely
Lets face it....everything started to go that way in the 80s....
Sanders called modern kfc wall plaster
Gotta throw Bojangles,and church's in the mix to be a fair fight
Yes!
Exactly what I was thinking, I would go more for Bojangles than KFC or Popeyes.
I forgot about Church's. You're right.
Bojangles is the superior choice.
Them Church's biscuits, tho...Amazing.
*I don't have a problem with the difference between Popeye's and KFC taste-wise, but every Kentucky Fried Chicken I've been to in the last three years or so has been filthy, with lazy, rude help, and a twenty dollar box had about a pound and a half of crappy pieces in it. Popeye's is cleaner, their help is better and friendlier, their portions are for humans instead of hamsters that already ate, and... red beans and rice. I won't even go into how their biscuits are cooked all the way instead of being chalky dough like KFC's. Wait... oops. I respect KFC as a tradition, but I can't respect it as a restaurant.*
P.S - Bojangle's & Church's kick ass, and Callie is gorgeous!!!
Agreed on all points.
Making your comment bold doesn't make it more important
@@michaellefort6128 Exactly. KFC restaurants are franchises; it's up to the individual owners to keep their stores run correctly. Obviously there's a wide range of competence.
Popeyes in my town tastes like dry uncooked flour. Kfc is greasy has heck. To get good chicken you have to go to Hattie Bs
Try going somewhere else i once went to a kfc and they gave me free mac and cheese but my favorite fast food is Wendy's
"Louisianians have the best food in the country"
All the cajuns just nodded in agreement like: "Well, yeah. That's why we don't travel much"
And the creoles are asking why are the cajuns nodding.
@@roybabineaux5353 Cajuns and Creoles both fall under the preview of Louisiana but Louisiana, blessed as it is, makes for a terrible name for the people.
It's definitely not because you want your moonshine op to be left unattended
They do! It was my favorite thing to do, going out to eat, when I lived there. There smoked sausage was so good. I'm hoping to go back to New Orleans someday just for the food
Except for BBQ, it's true
KFC used to be good. Now it seems like their quality went down. Popeyes wins.
"The little girl drove?!?" - Matt wins.
"Bendy as in rubber?"
Nailed it.
I met Colonel Sanders on a plane when I was a child and yes, he wore that white suit. I LOVED Kentucky Fried Chicken as a child, until they became "KFC". They are not what they used to be and this has left them vulnerable. Harlan Sanders would be appalled if he seen what has been done.
I agree, Kentucky fried chicken use to b the best bar non,not anymore i quit going there 8yrs ago
As a Texan I’m going to go with Popeyes! I love Popeyes. 😂❤️ I will not eat KFC at all! 😂 sorry to those who like KFC 😂
I used to hate popeye but I ended up trying again and liking it. My brother disliked cooked shrimp but liked it to be fried shrimp which is tampura. All of my family members hate KFC but also in elementary we also go there.m
"As a Texan" Really? you must be from Dallas or something. I used to love popeyes when i was a kid, but then we moved to Texas back in the early 80's and I've not seen a Popeyes since. It's all KFC, and i hate it.
From SA Texas. Love that chicken from Popeyes.
@Jessica Bly it's way better than KFC in terms of chicken. The seasoning tastes better on the breading of the chicken skin. And the chicken they use has more meat to it.
Popeyes!! I need flaaavor 😍
😍
Popeye's is owned by Canadians, not Cajuns.
And you are trying to get it at Popeye's?
@@murphyc15 THAT Was the 2 choices right?
@@RyanWaldroop
Who owns it, wasn't the question.
"They put Popeyes on their shoulders like it was Rudy..." THAT argument wins everything, lol!!!!
Bless your hart Calli but even people in California know Popeyes wins.
I find that statement amazing!
As a general rule Calicraps don't know hogjowels from horse shit, about anything except how to spread their political stupidity anywhere they move to because they messed up their home state, now they move to escape...
And bring it with them!!!
Yeah I'm pretty sick of every Californian stepping on there bottom lip to tell you where they live.
@@peppernagre3126 : OPEN BORDERS, SANCTUARY CITIES
MOVE to where the neighborhoods are houses and not people who are neighbors who are hoodlums
then tell the new place that you want open borders and sanctuary cities....
Thank you
@ I'm pretty sure your wrong
It's a tragedy that KFC has fallen in quality so much over the years. I can't blame Calli for still having a lot of strong feelings for it, it was my family's go to place when I was a kid, too. I can't quite remember when it was, but sometime in my early teens, I started going to Popeyes regularly and...oh man, it absolutely opened my eyes to better possibilities. Still would get KFC too, and it was damn good in it's own right, but as far as today's quality goes, Popeyes is still out of this world in terms of flavor and quality, might have even improved slightly since I was a teen. KFC is a shell of what it once was, kind of see it as the Pizza Hut of fried chicken. It used to have a distinct and far more consistent flavor and quality, but it's clear that ship has sailed. THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THE WEDGES ANYMORE. W. T. F. Blasphemous, frankly...
As a Kentuckian, I should support KFC, but Popeyes has better spices and biscuits. Gimme that Cajun cookin'.
Crusader I love fried chicken no matter what as a southerner and no I’m not over weight. That being said I only had the double down once and it was fantastic.
That is true, the double down was great.
Same!
Same I’m from Kentucky our town is building a kfc and we have had 2 and they all failed we need chic fla
Crusader the Cajun cooking is what I love about Bojangles
POPEYES ALL DAY
I’m always happy when Matt shares my opinion. He argues so well that I feel represented!!
Who honestly would choose KFC over Popeyes ? Popeyes is fire
There isn’t a Popeyes near me ;-;
The Modern Day Gamer well if the kfc has a buffet then I’ll go any day
Popeyes is more expensive.
Michael Lefort eh kfc has gone downhill over the past few years but a few years ago I would agree with you
@@JustSamD Yes slime grease
You're GOTDANG right Louisiana's got the best food boo!
why is this even a video?? POPEYES!! The chicken, the buscuits... everything! The only thing that all the fast food chicken places do the same...and do wrong is their nasty mac and cheese. Fast food places all have nasty mac and cheese
Truth.
Shantée Nicole what about the Cajun Rice at Popeyes? It is the best thing on the menu after their spicy chicken tenders
I still can't figure out how anyone can stomach food from Popeyes 😅
Aly Good It is tasty and they have the best fast food biscuits
If you're from the south than this makes sense.
The KFC we have here is normal size but, they cleared out the center of the dining area and put a Buffet Table in the middle. It has all the chicken, bbq, and sides from the menu + pudding/fruit desserts. All you can eat for $9.99 You gotta love independently owned stores!
Popeyes maam... Bless your little brunette heart.
"Pope yes." I am cryin', y'all! 😂😂😂
I'm with Calli on KFC I must say!
1:24 I'm not from Louisiana; I've never lived there; and I never intend to live there -- but he's right. Twice I have attended a physics conference in Baton Rouge timed to coincide with Mardi Gras. The physics was good, but the food was AMAZING. These were the only two times I have ever eaten a 7-course meal.
My favorite part was the crawfish etouffee. I had traveled with a colleague who is from India, and he had specifically requested vegetarian meals. When he pointed this out, the etouffee was removed, only to be brought back with the explanation that the cook said it was just seafood. I suppose they thought he was just another Catholic who was abstaining from meat on Fridays!
i was born and bred in Kentucky but since KFC changed hands they have gone down hill, i will have to go with Popeyes...
but KFCs coleslaw still rocks
KFC
Church's! Honey butter biscuits are awesome.
Dehydrated Water from love
Matt killed me with what he called Popeyes as a kid! 😂 when we lived in California and frequently flew back to Iowa traveling standby cuz worked for airlines got stuck places. We were in Chicago and got a motel. My youngest son n I walked to closest place for food and Popeye’s it was. I begged for able to order in drive up n they allowed it. Older 3 kids waited at motel. We walked back with all the chicken. Flew to Iowa to visit family next day and youngest son was explaining everything and said we had to walk to Poppy-Essie’s n we all looked at him wondering wth he was saying… it finally hit us! 😂 20 yrs later n we still call it that and have them here in Iowa! Love it!
How could Bojangles not be included, they have some really good chicken too. Without any doubt Bojangles HAS THE BEST FRIES OF ANY CHICKEN PLACE. That seasoning tho!!!
“Louisiana’s food, is the best food in the country...” Amen!
I mean, I’m a Creole girl, not a Cajun but I agree!!
cajun here and heck yes lol
@Dehydrated Water never understood why people think Louisiana food is cajun.
I live in Louisiana and i dont feel im cajun. Im in north La though
What are people in like north La called?
@@Daveerough26 Alabamians
I’m gonna go with neither and say “Church’s !” ❤️
Younger people won't remember but Kentucky Fried Chicken used to be prepared in a pressure cooker. It was so moist and sticky that you had to lick your fingers. They gave you lemon towelettes to get the sticky off your fingers . They had dinner rolls. No biscuits.And they only had cole-slaw mashed potatoes and gravy.
I love y'all! But y'all need to update this battle! And you better bring the chicken sandwiches this time. Also bring hot sauce!!! 😂 Thanks Christopher!
Matt is right again! I have fond memories of KFC in the 90's, yes my parents and brother and I went, and we loved it. But now? KFC is not the same, and Popeyes is FTW!! (red beans and rice!)
Popeyes all the way. Greetings from NYC. The north support Popeyes
I'm originally from NYC, was introduced to Popeye's in San Diego where lived for 36 years, enjoyed it in Missouri where I lived for 16 years, and now in Indiana. Popeye's wins hands down!
North and mid west to me don’t have room to talk
Allie Sierdsma Too bad. It’s a Yankee invasion. Did you really think your we’re gonna hide this awesome channel from us forever
Allie Sierdsma It’s not like this debate is about sweet tea or grits which is something us northerners know nothing about. We love our fry chicken up here
Oh, you're just mad because we won the war.
Watching this as I’m eating Popeyes right now 😂
KFC all the way. I refuse to eat Popeyes. My wife has to eat Popeyes when I’m not with her. We are a house divided.
GUYS!!!! Y’all totally forgot to mention....”With KFC you got yer Original or yer Extra Crispy”, While “With Popeye’s you got yer Mild or you got yer Spicy”!!!....ANd Callie that Mardi Gras Cheescake?? Hey now!!! Mmmmmmm!!!!! LOL
Popeyes. We didnt have them around here until relatively recently, but they are far and away better. 90s kfc was good, but now it's a sad shell of its former glory.
when it got bought out it went down the drain
I agree, was good in the 90s. The last time I went a couple years ago was not good. Bought a bucket of fried chicken that tasted like it was drowned in salt. This is Texas btw. I love Popeyes.
There was once a Bojangles and Popeyes in our small town, along with the preexisting KFC.
Only the KFC survived. *drops mic.
Bruh. Pope-Yes LOL I'm DEAD and "Holeh Chimken" XD I love this.
Popeyes all the way hands down!!!
Bo Jangles and Church’s too!!
To explain where the name of Popeyes chicken comes from. The founder of Popeyes chicken was a big fan of the gene Hackman movie “the French connection” which has a character in it named “Popeye Doyle” and apparently that’s where the name comes from
If you think grocery store chicken is that close to the bottom, you haven’t had Publix chicken.
Love me some original recipe but Popeye's spicy is the bomb. And the red beans and rice while an entirely different animal than the authentic item is an amazing side dish.
Team Popeyes al the way!!!!
Hold on y'all let's get this straight right now the best fried chicken in the whole world it's Mama's Fried Chicken I mean mama's home cooking fried chicken you all know Mama means mom not so corporate restaurant Mom's Kitchen
In Opelelusas?
@@mrs.cracker4622 ??¿¿
Sorry my bad spelling. Mama's Fried Chicken is a restaurant in Opelousas, LA
@@mrs.cracker4622 oh okay I mean Mama's fried chicken I mean Home Cooking Mama the chicken that Mama makes you know what your mama would make for you and what my mama would have made when she was alive for me hope this clears up any misunderstanding
Can’t beat grandmas cooking
"you cannot do both and be good at both."
Well, not with that attitude.
Funny story. Or sad? My 77 year old mama grew up in Wilmington North Cackalackers n now lives far from her "churn" in Pittsburgh PA....every week she schedules the old folks transport provided by the county that most elders use solely for medical appointments .....to run to Popeyes n bring home "some of that crispy chickens!" At first one transport would drop her off n other come back like a standard appointment.....then the drivers just started waiting for her outside.....now the drivers go in and get it for her......and some of them pay...and grab their own lunch or that of other elders on the transport. Not many popeye's there so it's about a 30 minute ride....almost twice that in traffic! Now they r thinking of having a food tour where the old folks can go once a week together on a field trip!
Team KFC!!!!!
Does anyone out there remember Pioneer Chicken from California (Socal in my case)? It was the BOMB! That aside, Popeye's all the way. KFC- too soggy. Don't care for their so--called Extra Crispy, either.
I liked Pioneer. We had one in Lancaster. They sold pretty good English style fried fish too. Had a KFC on Rainier Ave at Genessee St in Seattle when I was kid that sold fish too, and burgers.
Yes....Pioneer chicken!
Wow....that brings back memories.
You said Bojangles on Bless your Rank.
When Matt said Bojangles I knew he was the real deal 🍗
Publix!! Beats 'em both! But if they're out... usually end up at KFC...
I was looking for a public comment. I agree
Kentuckian born & raised, & I am team Popeye's all the way!!
I like them both, so it depends on my mood and what store is closer
Remember watching the Colonel on PTL. He was talking, on live tv, about his hemorrhoid's.
Popeyes!🍗
POPEYES!!
When we got our first Popeye's, it was cajun. Now, I don't know what it is but watered down spices or they run a cart of spices past bags of rice and live chickens.
How about that Jacks though? 😂
You need to dip your chicken in red beans n rice! Popeyes all the way.
Why have I not done that
Try dipping your biscuit in the red beans!
Heathens
Biscuits go with the honey, chicken with potatoes and gravy, and strips with Mardi Gras
I can't eat beans and rice as a dish; it makes my blood sugar go through the roof and then I crash (pass out for 3 hours).
99% if the time, people that prefer KFC over Popeye's it's nostalgia, because back in the day there Dad only had to pay $1.50 to feed his whole family.
i remember the only time that my parents got me kfc as a kid. the place they went to apparently just, like, ran out of fried chicken for the night, and i had to get a grilled chicken breast. and as a 9 year old who was really really looking forward to eating fried chicken for dinner and was used to popeyes, i wasnt very happy
Best onion rings I ever had were at the Popeyes on Misawa Air Base in Japan! Perfectly spiced flaky crust and large, meaty, sweet, juicy onions!
KFC all the way
Ashlyn Frahm you’re drunk
@@joselira3783 a few points
1. I Can't drink it's kind of illegal
2. If i could there is no better hangover food
3. Popeyes is overrated
Team Popeyes!
I'm in Iowa and we have a KFC/Long John Silvers lol
1:30 Manz be sayin facts
This is a tough one, but if I had to pick one it would be Popeye's. Mainly because of the biscuits and the sweet heat sauce.
Since I am from Kentucky it pains me to say this, but the best fried chicken ever is in Tennessee at Hattie B's. Nashville Hot Chicken is the best - bar none.
1 Popeyes
2 Churches
3 KFC
This is the guide for my fried chicken life😁😁😁
Matt's "fixin' to" t-shirt is great!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I want one! I think i would be team Popeyes based on what I have heard but we don't have one in England 😭 - only KFC.
Where's Team Chick-fil-A at? I don't care if it doesn't have bones, it's still "fried" chicken. Unless it's Sunday, then Popeye's or Publix will suffice.
Love me some Publix most anything but IMO their fried chicken is sub par, oddly I think Food Lion has the best grocery store friend chicken these days.
Publix fried chicken on its own is okay. Now their chicken tender sub.. sweet jesus that's good.
If you can't buy it by the bucket/box it don't count. Otherwise a McChicken is also "fried chicken."
Chick-fil-A is chicken sandwiches. It's not fried chicken.
I love Chick-fil-A!
Popeyes is the best!
Who manages the franchise and what time you go are incredibly important... I've had great and terrible food from both chains.
Ya see if y'all had a KFC buffet like my home town does this would not even be an argument
Original recipe KFC chicken based on chicken only. BUT all the side dishes from Popeye's are better including the biscuits PLUS they have shrimp!
Shrimp I'll give you, but how in the world can you possibly think Popeye's has better sides? Only better side they have is their fries
The fried chicken at Publix blows both of ‘em away!
I'd like to hear y'all's opinion on Publix Fried Chicken.
But what about Kane’s? That one is so good
Popeye!!! Early
I like both but Popeyes is better hands down bojangles is good to
3:27 Roasted.
I love Popeyes... They have better chicken, better dipping sauces, and Shrimp... So good.
I will always choose Popeyes over KFC when given the chance. Unfortunately my town only has a KFC😢
I live in a city that has a lot of both, but I will still choose gus' fried chicken over both.
Sorry,but this argument means nothing for as long as Bojangles is alive 🤷🏼♂️
If you didn't know KFCs biscuits are frozen Pillsbury grands
POPEYESSD ALL THE WAY
neither lol
What would be your chicken place?
Bojangles? Chickfila?
Chick-fil-A, Cane’s, Whataburger, local places...
@@perryannemoore I love chickfila, so good
Never argue with us big boys. We know food.
All I want to know is if there really outside 😂
You're both wrong. Best is mine, second is a local place and close third is Church's.
Team KFC, but I don't like the coleslaw
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who likes to read as “Pope yes!”
They need to bring back the back porch. So good haha
Popeye's but the KFC bowl is good
