The Hy-Vee near me, used to make the best fried chicken sandwich in town. Possibly some of the best fried chicken I’ve had from anywhere. I would regularly get a fried chicken sandwich. It was good because it was a fresh chicken breast, coated and deep fried right there. It wasn’t some Sysco frozen patty. And it was priced pretty well too to be honest.
New Management (I think at the corporate level) from my understanding, it’s not fresh chicken anymore. I would guess it’s maybe a third the weight it was, the price has gone up, and it is most definitely a frozen patty.
The one section that used to do like Cafe options, stop doing spicy tenders. And no longer lets you get anything from the cold section.
So I’ve stopped going. And I’m not the only one. Because the Hy-Vee also did burgers. But the burgers are also smaller and when I swing by and I see that there’s a lot of burgers both chicken and beef just sitting there no one touching them. Quantity and quality went down price went up.
