I have to admit, I find Popeye's new Rip'n Chick'n deal to be extremely tasty. In fact, I've been eating it very frequently.
The idea behind the Rip'n Chick'n is that you tear off these strips from the glove shaped chicken as you eat it. Think of a hand made of poultry, and you are consuming the fingers first.
Or not.
Anyway, it's just a gimmick I guess, but it's clever enough to where you don't realize that you're really just eating attached chicken strips.
Popeye's has a more coherant discription:
Juicy who chicken breast partially cut into tenders.
Of course, I knew in the back of my mind that it's only available for a "limited time," but I wasn't aware of the exact length of the promotion.
So, you can imagine my disapointment and pain when I pulled into the drive thru and was told the Rip'n Chick'n meal was no longer available.
Denied.
The worker tried to comfort me over the inaudible loundspeeker.
"But it will be back next year!"
Hardly a consolation.
I'm sure I will rebound, but it's gonna be a long year for my taste buds.
