Roy Rogers is another one of those IHOPian experiences. You know that you’re not being very kind to your circulatory system, but the food is pretty darn good. The hamburgers are not bad, and the chicken sandwiches are great. I actually prefer the skin on RR chicken to the skin on any other chain, even KFC and their ultra magico secret skin recipe. It makes me sad that I think the tastiest part of a chicken is its fried skin. I feel very superficial. All its life it ate and ate to try to fatten up just for me, and all I appreciate is its skin. I mean, if I was a chicken, I would be thinking in chicken heaven, hey why didn’t I just run free in the range if all you’re gonna talk about is how great my skin is. I mean, what was it all for? And then I would start to rethink my life as a chicken.
Roy Rogers has excellent biscuits too. They aren’t as buttery as KFC, and the prices are a little better at Roy’s. You might think that you would find a lot of black customers at Roy Roger’s if you were a person fond of stereotypes. But there are quite a lot of customers who aren’t black. They are mostly overweight though, so that stereotype is right on the money. But as long as you don’t eat there every day, I think it’s okay. Just don’t eat at IHOP on the same day. That’s just wrong… as the kids say… the kids who aren’t black...the kids who are black say That's whack...or something.
