Has Popeyes Chicken changed their recipe for their biscuits?

I live in the chicago area. Their biscuits are horrible. They are dry, and they lack the moisture they used to have. It seems like every chain of Popeyes biscuits suck. I am not racist, but a lot of Arabians seem to be running some chains of Popeyes Chicken and Biscuits in Chicago or some suburbs. Whats going on? Does anyone know why the taste of Popeyes biscuits have changed, I am not the only one that thinks this. Popeyes have been famous for their biscuits for years. Can you imagine throwing away a whole box of biscuits? Every time I go there I end up throwing away a whole box of them, they are horrible.Has Popeyes Chicken changed their recipe for their biscuits?
I live is Southwest Indiana and the biscuits here are still GREAT. You have to realize that most of the Popeye's are franchise and the franchisees are allowed some flexibility with there menus and items. It could bethatthe local suppliers have changed the way they make them and no longer apply the butter topping that has made Popeye's biscuits famous. I hope things improve at these facilities. You might try contacting there franchise headquarters or Popeye's headquarters to report the change and dissatisfaction.Has Popeyes Chicken changed their recipe for their biscuits?
It is in the technique...and the people baking the biscuits don't know what they are doing...I am lucky enough to live 90 miles from New Orleans, where Popeye's was born...everything at our Popeye's is excellent...
I thought this sounded exactly like what would happen if they eliminated trans fats from the biscuit recipe. Looked it up, and sure enough, that's what they did.





Trans fats are bad for you, but they do produce a tender biscuit.
