Order a chicken tenders meal anywhere in the US and you will undoubtedly get two of these. Why? They're not for making a sandwich, there's not enough bread. They aren't for dipping in sauce or gravy because it tastes terrible. They're just two bland slices of fried bread from the grocery store. Are they a punishment for ordering tenders? Please explain this phenomenon to me. At this point in life I have tossed a hundred loaves' worth of Texas toast.

I dont get it either, saw a melonated woman get upset that she didnt get white bread with her wings an a national Coney island. Its an enigma to me

Grains are cheap and it gives the illusion of a bigger meal and more value.
I just tear them apart and dip them in the sauce.

bread is a staple. it's just common courtesy to serve bread and water with a meal.

Usually you get at least 2+ pieces of chicken in a meal, sometimes pieces with bones. You supposed to just eat half the chicken normally and half in a sandwich?

You get it even if you already ordered sides. They don't even ask. You can get the ultimate fatass trashbag o'chicken with six sides and there will be two pieces of Texas toast floating around in there somehow. I was hoping there was some secret regional Texas toast technique but I guess >>19869749 is right. My other theory is they buy the bread in case someone orders Texas toast but nobody ever does so they make the toast and give it away before the bread goes bad.

This place serves it with honey mustard, but a lot of places in the area use duck sauce which I'm not a fan of.

i don't understand it either. i'd swear on a stack of Qur'ans the toast at Zaxby's is butter, toasted and frozen off site...then shipped to Zaxby's frozen...then Chef Mic heats it up when it's time to be served.

The reason we have twenty different chicken finger chains with the same presentation is Guthrie's. Guthrie's was the original chicken finger restaurant in Auburn, Alabama. Students and alumni from other colleges came to football games at Auburn University, ate at Guthrie's, and liked it enough to copy the concept in their own college towns.
If you look at the headquarters or first restaurant locations of other chicken finger chains, they are all in SEC or other Southern college towns. Zaxby's is from Athens, Georgia. Raising Cane's is from Baton Rouge, Louisiana (this one doesn't quite count as was opened late enough for one of the founders to have worked at a Guthrie's location). There are plenty of smaller restaurants you may not have heard of as well. Slim Chickens in Fayetteville, Arkansas; McDougal's in Nashville and Sawyer's in Knoxville, Tennessee; Foosackly's in Mobile (was originally also in Baton Rouge); Huey Magoo's in Orlando, Florida. There are plenty of others.
In any case, you can probably guess what they originally served with their chicken fingers at Guthrie's.

No you fucking wont. I've been given Texas toast exactly once in my life, and that was from a fucking fast food chain. It's not a normal thing in most parts of the country.

Yes, Texas toast is just thick cut toast.
I bet Texas Toast would feel inadequate next to Japanese cut toast though, they like it really thick over there.

Texas toast is also buttered and then pan or flat top fried, it's not toasted then buttered.

traditionally american meals came with multiple side orders in order to create a full meal. as the globalist cabal has slowly eroded the purchasing power of our currency, companies still maintain this tradition but only in a symbolic way. 30 years ago your tenders would have came with biscuts, mashpotatoes, and a third order of something such as coleslaw or hushpuppies with an unlimited amount of bread, 20 years ago it came with biscuts and mashed potatoes and the bread, 10 years ago you had your choice of biscuts or mashed potatoes and you could order the bread as an additional side, now you just get 2 pieces of complimentary bread.

It makes a lot more sense with Nashville hot chicken, because the cheap ass flavorless white bread soaks up all the spicy chicken grease and becomes delicious.

Toast is for sopping up wet/saucy food and toasting the bread adds texture. It's obviously better with butter/lard but after a long enough period of NOT spreading a fat (partially because my climate is cold enough that butter is only spreadable in the mid to late-spring/summer) I don't really miss it anymore.

When you get fried chicken, fries, and green beans there's not much to sop. I could see if it was standard for pulled pork.

Wait, Dairy Queen does this shit too in their tender basket. Are they coping Guthrie's to stay relevant or is it their OG idea since they predate Guthrie's? Sure they started as an ice cream place, but then they added shit like burgers and stuff later.

Was it exactly two pieces per order, that you didn't ask for? I think the toast is a byproduct of the tendie machine.

I will also say that the only time I've ever seen Texas toast on a menu was at a Tudor's Biscuit World in West Virginia. I didn't order it and I still got two pieces.
