Not sure if this is also true in Canada, but Popeyes now sells some of the worst quality fried chicken since 2020.

They haven't even been anything close to "Louisiana inspired" in years. This is supposed to be their brand differentiator, but I haven't seen jambalaya or gumbo on their menu in over a decade. Most locations in my area haven't brought back the seafood since 4 years ago despite being on the menu (always out of stock).

I don't see any of these legacy brands ever being on top again. Their most recent idea is selling some nasty soggy wings that are now routinely given away for free with any order. It's about as ironic as it gets that these wings didn't take them to new heights.
