I heard rumors that they were better than KFC.

>>19555964
they are not. and you should be going to popeyes and arby's more than KFC anyways unless you are getting the double down

>>19555906
>everywhere
there are 67 locations in the entire country

>>19556000
there are many more on the way so think before you speak

>>19555906
KFC is just like California, if it wasn't for the people there it would be the best place on earth

>>19556007
>there are many more on the way so think before you speak
Yeah. When we say things that aren't true, they actually are true because they might be true in the future.

>>19556022
they have had exponential growth in america

>>19556036
They're probably building them at a loss in hopes it will catch on. Nobody goes to them here.

>>19555906
I want to go to one for some 'ghetti

>>19555964
Everything is better than kfc

>>19556041
the asian community goes there religiously

But they own smashburger

>>19556007
There aren't though.

>>19555906
does that mean i too can be Filipino?

>>19555906
had it for the first time a month or two ago. The spicy chicken was actually delicious. I'd go without the sweet spaghetti next time.

Wise anon. I see you have much experience with bonus hole having birthing people.

>>19556022
Here's your (you) that I flubbed.

>>19556050
nah only dumb flips do. the food is shit and filipino "food" is garbage tier.

Never ate there but their food really does look 5 tiers below the shittiest of fast food, don't know how they're gaining ground in the US. Americans love gluttonous sweet foods but sweet spaghetti would make anyone outside of Thailand gag.

>>19555906
Anthony Bourdain sang the praises of Jollibee when he went to one in The Philippines by himself and a second time with Roy Choi. I guess he got his wish.

>>19557331
Anthony Bourdain also killed himself over a woman (lol) so there's that

>>19555906
No wonder the Filipeenish are so fat.

>>19555906
How the fuck could they not even manage to make spaghetti look somewhat palatable? That looks so fucking dismal.

>>19557299

I used to live in Thailand and their sweet spaghetti isn't bad really, 7/11 there does a tomato sauce macaroni that's sweet and has peas and ham, it's actually decent. But Jollibee always overcooks the fuck out of the pasta and the sauce is way too ketchupy-sweet, it's absolutely disgusting. Their chicken is.. okay, but if you're in southeast Asia you can walk for 2 minutes down any city street and get way better fried chicken from a street food vendor (blah blah gutter oil shut up nobody cares)

>>19557199
jollybee is not filipino food except that stupid pancit that they have on their menu that doesn't fit in with the rest.

>>19556007
so you work in their corporate office planning the expansion?

>>19556050
they like to eat gross shit so that's not surprising

>>19558717
>jollybee is not filipino food
It's filipino fast food. It's like how olive garden and panda express are called italian food and chinese food but you're definitely not getting that shit in italy and china, they are specifically american creations.

>>19559283
false analogy. because in that case, OG and PE are called italian and chinese food (whether one agrees with calling them that or not), because they are adaptations of italian and chinese food. if people object to calling OG an PE italian or chinese because they are not traditional to italy or chinese, just how much less traditional is JB to filipino cuisine?

>>19555964
they are. bigger cuts of chicken, batter is better and doesn't have that disgusting brine smell to it (instead is butter milk soaked). also the spicy chicken at jolybee's is better than KFC's (and alot of places) spicy chicken variety. like a slow build heat that will have you reaching for a cup of water by the time you've just about finished your first piece.

>>19558717
jollibees is filipino wtf you mean

get the pie
get the chicken
get out

>>19555906
>FUCK JOLLIBEES
Hey keep your fetishes to yourself, some of us prefer to eat food not fuck it.

>>19555906
that's funny because i live in america and i've never seen one of these. i'm guessing these only exist in the commie hellhole states

>>19559434
read the rest of the message an maybe the meaning will dawn on you.

>>19559554
if you start a message that jollibees is not filipino the rest is not worth reading.

>>19559312
>false analogy
Actually the analogy is exactly what it is. Sorry that you're too retarded to realize it.

>>19558708
What's wrong with it?

>>19559741
Dude, no offense, but are you blind? That shit looks like a low poly fever dream representation of food at best. The sauce is is a homogenous, sickening artificial red, and the noodles look deserving of a mercy killing, which is something I never thought I would say about food. The disproportionately long, off color, and sparse parmesan cheese adds insult to injury.

>>19559779
I mean just a little stir and its practically olive garden.

>>19559848
Yeah, fair point.

>>19559559
i didn't say it wasn't filipino. i said isn't filipino food, in the context that one would use it as an example of why someone would trash filipino food.
to me, if a chinese chain made mexican food without really much influence from their local culture and ingredients except maybe mixing a few items in ways that is not commonly done, i would not call it chinese food.
>>19559566
it would make sense if people commonly called jollybee american food (which would fit more sense than someone calling panda express chinese food), and if there's a standard to modern american food like how chinese and italians at least pretend there is for theirs, and it if was so completely different from what one can get from america.
the only strange things are that the spaghetti is sweet and they have hotdogs, and they eat rice more and add gravy to chicken, which i've always done for kfc but apparently it's strange.

>>19556043
Don't waste your time anon, FIlipino spaghetti is ass and it's because for whatever reason, Flips like to toss in like 8 tablespoons of sugar and artificial-tasting hot dogs in their sauce. You're better off getting a peach mango pie and ignoring everything else on the menu.
t. Flip

>i fucking hate jollibees
Then don't eat there. I'm a picky eater myself and won't eat anything with mayo on it. Doesn't mean I'm going to bitch and moan about Wendy's putting it on nearly all of their burgers. Just means I'm going to prefer McDonalds most of the time. If you don't like Jollibees, go to KFC instead or some shit.

>>19555906
Chicken is good, pies are good, everything else is watered down compared to real filipino dishes. They have way better marinated chicken dishes.

I want a giant female worker Jollibee© to sting me in the ass with her modified ovipositor stinger. After she punctures the inner wall of my rectum, I'll watch her pull away, shrieking in pain and bleeding ketchup as her digestive tract, made of giant strands of Jolly Spaghetti™ and covered in hot dog meat sauce, separates from her body along with the stinger, which is pumping frosty purple yam ice cream into my sphincter. She beats her crispy breaded Chickenjoy™ wings furiously, showering the area with stale grease, as she tries to fly back to the hive, but her gaping ass wound where her stinger used to bee is too deep, and she flops down on the ground, hyperventilating and sweating gravy from every pore. I'll watch her gasp and spasm like the chunk of flan in a halo-halo as she bleeds out the last of her ketchup blood onto the parched ground and then fall down on top of her, her stinger still filling me with frosty fun, and start paradoxically undressing as hypothermia begins to kill me from the inside out.

Not gonna lie, their food looks shitty but appealing. I might have to try it out

>>19561790
If they popped up in my state I would at least try a couple things.

>>19555906
leave the spag, take the palabok

>>19555964
They Lied
Hard
Kfc, chick fil a, and popeyes are better then jollibees

>>19555906
its the MSG used to marinate the chicken

>>19555906

The only people I know who like Jollibees are, unsurprisingly, Filipinos. Since Filipinos are like the Mexicans of Asia, it is safe to assume their food is uninspired and gross, as is the case with Jollibee.

>>19560165
filipino food is shit tier

>>19556007
two more weeks?

>>19555906
>pinoys eat spaghetti napoli at restaurants when they could make a 4 person serving of it at home in less than 20 minutes for less than a dollar

>>19555906
Easy solution: don't go to jollibees. You don't speak for the millions that do like it. If you can't deal with the mere presence of this restaurant, that's a you problem, and you might need therapy.

>>19566396
Why eat out for anything, just make it at home, they could buy chef boyardee and it'd be ready in 2 mjnutes

>>19555906
>implying any fast food is good

>>19559559
Saying Jollibee represents Filipino food is like saying Taco Bell represents Mexican food.

>>19566435
Filipino food sucks so yeah I'd say it represents it in spirit

>>19566461
Nah they got some good food, fast food just sucks. I hate when people think all American food is just shitty big macs because of McDonalds. So it's not fair to say all Filipino food sucks because of Jollibee. I've had adobo once or twice, that stuff is pretty good.

>ketchup spaghetti
>ketchup spaghetti but Japan

>>19566482
there is no such thing as good filipino food. it's all disgusting garbage.

>>19556014
I've been wondering...
Do you suppose certain demographic areas' KFCs wash their chicken in bleach and soap?
I've only had KFC ONCE in the last 15 years,(I don't eat fast "FOOD™" ) and about 20 minutes after eating 3 pieces and a biscuit from a "Bucket Deal" I felt like SHIT, and didn't eat anything for the next day and a half.
Threw the rest away too, and I HATE wasting food.
I guess people don't know that detergent DESTROYS your guts for a couple days. I can't imagine eating "chiggum" like that all the time. That's a good way to go around both incredibly unhealthy, and in a shitty mood all the time.

>>19556050
tell me you live around exclusively Filipinos without telling me you live around exclusively Filipinos

>>19561416
Yeah...
SAVED!

>>19559434
interesting

>>19566435
it's the other way around

>>19555906
The only reason you, as a white man, should eat there is for the novelty and to find a Filipina gf. Seriously, that place is a beacon for fillipinos, they come out of the woodwork and make you realize your town actually had that many Asians after all.

when are they putting pagpag on the menu?

>>19555906
seems like the kind of place this one wigger I used to know would eat at
