> I recently heard that a trip to Popeye's for a family of 3 recently cost $68 in Florida.
Just checked online.
8pc family meal of spicy white meat with large mash potatoes and gravy, one sweet tea, one purple lemonade, one chilled premium mango lemonade
=
$41.05
@ 1501 NW 20th St, Miami, FL 33142
Bring-your-own-liquids = $30.38
Either ordering at the counter is criminally expensive, or you were listening to someone who wanted to spend $68 at Popeye's in Florida so they could complain about spending $68 at Popeye's in Florida.
That 8pc 'family meal' feeds 2 people. The sweet teas don't count as food - they may as well be dumped down the sink.
Feeding a family of four would need 2 of those 8 piece meals, so $60.
Looking at the Popeyes menu, the 8pc family meal is $32.99 and feeds 3-4 people (3218-3738 calories)
If that’s not enough, you order the larger portion, not double your quantity.
12pc family meal: $42.99 for 4-6 people (4992-6032 calories)
16pc family meal: $52.99 for 6-8 people (6766-8326 calories)
Have you folks seen a Popeyes family meal? They’re not tiny… eating that many calories in one sitting is not the best idea.
Half those calories are from the drinks. Like I said, pour it down the drain, it just pumps the numbers.
Their family meals don’t include drinks.
We Americans are used to overeating. In Asia 1 piece of chicken and a small side (kids size) is enough for 1 person.
My partner and I spent ~$70 CAD at popeyes the other day for two adults. I got a sandwich + fries + slaw, they got tenders, we both got fountain drinks.
that's about $50 USD.
The chicken sandwich large combo at Popeyes consists of the sandwich, 2 sides (fries, slaw), and a fountain drink — $14.99.
The 5pc chicken tenders regular combo (tenders, fries, biscuit, fountain drink) is $15.99.
Where did the other ~$20 USD come from?
why is the lemonade purple
grape drank + lemonade
