The Challenger Name : Popeyes Age : 1 year old in the Phils Branches: Eight Price : P 325 for 8 pcs of Chicken Masa Appeal: Progressing Kids Appeal : Lot to Learn Secret : Their crispy crunchy chicken covering which made both Jollibee and McDo reformulate their chicken preparation Scouting Report: Will last the chicken war but not strong enough to fight it out til the last round Why? : Loves spinach, but menu doesnt show any veggie. His friend, Wimpy will continue to float toward Jollibee.
The Champion Name : Jollibee Age : 25 years old in the Phils Branches: where there is McDo Price : P18 to P99 Masa Appeal: Can run for President & win. Kids Appeal : Kids arent afraid of his sting or his plastered smile Secret : 100% Filipino or is it still the wriggly wiggling ingredient of the 80s? Of course not. Scouting Report: No challenger in sight to overcome this stinger. It will be beaten by itself. Why?: A price war doesn't solve the problem, look at recent victim, Ronald McDonald. It's got to be the Filipino palate plus a lot of luck. Besides, this latest challenger forgot to bring his spinach.
Pictures were taken prior to the fight at SM Southmall, Las Pinas. Popeye won the first few rounds dancing to Asereje, but when Jollibee started carrying kids around, shaking hands with bystanders, with such a catchy slogan of "BEE Happy" - it made me realize, someone can beat FPJ in 2004!
