"I wanted a vegetable component to the meal, and coleslaw is a Southern thing. I appreciate a CEO who can admit he doesn't like something from their restaurants."
"As Gen Z and millennial customers steer away from chains like Chipotle, Cava, and Sweetgreen due to inflation, high housing costs, and flat-income growth, restaurants like Cane's and Dave's Hot Chicken have experienced greater sales and traffic growth."
Todd Graves, CEO of Raising Cane's, revealed his preference for the Box Combo without coleslaw, opting for extra toast and sauce instead. He acknowledged coleslaw as a Southern staple but expressed his dislike for it. The viral TikTok post sparked discussions among customers, with some suggesting mac and cheese as a substitute. Raising Cane's has seen increased sales as younger customers move away from other chains due to economic factors. The brand ranks as the third-most-popular chicken restaurant in sales, following Chick-fil-A and Popeyes.
