I live in the Metro Atlanta area and I occasionally grab a bite to eat from one of their establishments. The biscuits are always my favorite part about getting good from those places as well as the chicken and shrimp. I used to think that they named the chains after Popeye the Sailor and the E.C. Segar comic strips!<br /><br />Yes, most of the people I've seen working at Popeye's are black. As a son of Hispanic immigrants, I have never really had any problems eating there.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166618601866526009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225373.post-60906805291356988162013-02-14T00:23:13.113-05:002013-02-14T00:23:13.113-05:00Popeye's is all over white and mixed-race neig...Popeye's is all over white and mixed-race neighborhoods down here, and gets a diverse clientele including white people, though 30 years ago that was not the case. Um, according to my dad? But I have my own theory, based on hazy memory. Of my dad's stories.<br /><br />I think Popeye's spicy chicken was spicier before the chain expanded into whiter neighborhoods. I don't know who could or would verify whether my recollection (of what my dad said) is correct.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08018705513587424497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225373.post-76971345780198133572013-02-13T21:59:20.119-05:002013-02-13T21:59:20.119-05:00For real, what do you think was going on?
