Popeyes' downfall is the ratio of batter to chicken. To start, the chicken strips are too thin and are coated with breading that is thicker than the meat.

Not unlike its ButterBurgers, which are famously made from three prized cuts of beef, Culver's tenders also have a specific source for their chicken. Springer Mountain Farms is a Georgia-based, family-owned farm that operates under strict environmental sustainability and animal welfare standards, foregoing antibiotics and using 100% U.S.-grown corn and soybeans in the chicken feed.

Chicken tenders have transformed from a mere trend to a staple menu item, captivating even the pickiest of eaters on kids' menus across South Florida.
