Rat-Infested Popeyes Gets Shut Down After Viral TikTok 

Yes but let's be honest. Nobody was going to fix this rat infestation if this man didn't film it

I worked at a McDonald's while I was in high school and I honestly NEVER saw as much as a roach. The owner was so obsessed with cleanliness that I hated working there. As an adult, I grew to learn why. God bless him. 🙌

"Food safety and cleanliness is a top priority at Popeyes" Obviously it's not

That’s crazy. Not only the rats climbing into pipes were there, but I also counted at least 3 visible on the floor. And that’s just what the eye can see, imagine the infestations inside the dark places in that kitchen! This guy is honestly a hero for sharing that because he very well could have prevented tons of people from getting sick.

Those rats look healthier and better fed than the homeless literally anywhere...

Bless this man. He risked his job to warn the public. So many others would just look the other way

This is the biggest reason why I cook my own meals at home.

That's the kitchen employees! Ratatouille and his helpers!

No wonder the chicken is so good remi is stepping up his game.

"You still love that chicken from Popeye's?" I love how he said that.

Rats agree "Love that Chicken from Popeye's" Their size and jiggle definitely tells me they have been on this regimen a while lol.

Most things like this go unnoticed. This guy did a great thing.

Hope this guy doesn’t all of a sudden get “laid off”... he did the right thing.

This reminded me of that scene in Ratatouille when the lady finds all the rats

They all knew the escape route 😂😂😂

Gordon Ramsy would be in there yelling and raising Hell! 😂

Health department: You’re being shut down. Popeyes: Who ratted us out?

we honestly need more people like this man

This man more thank likely saved hundreds if not thousands of lives by exposing this. It needs to happen more often!

This guy must be rewarded so much for taking care of thousands of people’s health

If this guy loses his job or gets reprimanded the public needs to back him up for doing the right thing.

He actually has integrity to expose them. It’s a shame he lost his job.

Seven foot frame, Rats along his back.

“U still luv that chicken from Popeyes” I’m done💀💀💀

We need more people like this guy. Seriously

“Food safety and cleanliness is a top priority at Popeyes.” Yeah, we can see that.

Owners always abandoning their restaurants. They give the responsibilities to employees that don’t care.

We need more people like this. Hopefully that restaurant fixed that dangerous problem.

Ratatouille: *this Popeyes is popping*

Dudes like this need to win the lottery or something, imagine the people he saved from illness from this dump , he's a standup dude

Little homie went the wrong way in the panic, but brought up the rear and BOOKED IT up that wall, XD

No wonder Popeyes chicken is so good, they got Remy and the squad in the back cooking chicken for us

"Food safety and cleanliness is a top priority at Popeyes" *Ironic.*

I don’t think I’ve ever seen rats climb pipes like that. Horrifying.

Rat: Today I will begin my culinary journey in order to become a real chef! Health Department: *shuts it down* Rat: :(

Knowing about this particular Popeyes, watch how many people forgive and forget then go back to this place to eat. Smh

I bet it’s not the only Popeyes. I applaud this guy for speaking out.

Bro my homie ratatouille was just tryna eat 🧀 🐀

From KFC to Popeyes, the deep fryer saga continues.

“you still love that chicken from Popeyes?”

“Food safety and cleanliness is a top priority at Popeyes” Clearly.

Bless this dude for coming forward with this info that could've saved someone from getting sick. Most people would ignore it because they're too scared of being labeled a snitch/losing their job.

I remember working at a fast food restaurant as a shift lead and having to open the store and when you have a pest infestation of some sort you can't do anything about it. They just want you to open the store and get started with setting up for customers and if you try to spend any kind of money on any kind of pest control without permission you will be fired. So you have to hope that the rats and the roaches don't get mad at you for showing up that day and start trying to square up with you.

Dont worry guys it's just the finale of Ratatouille at a Popeyes instead.

Everytime a company gets caught "Safety and health is a top priority"

That’s where the rat slices come from 😂😂

That’s not chicken…. That’s rat. *”Love That Rat From Popeyes!”* 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I usually hate tattletails. But this man earned my respect.

So Pixar’s Ratatouille is real? No wonder the chicken be bussin’. Lil chef n his family been cooking our 12 piece all along.

Carter: "I want them deep-fried. You know Popeye's?"

When he says still enjoyin that chicken from Popeyes made me cry laughing

That “you still love that chicken from Popeyes?” line at the end was legendary. Props to this dude for looking out for the Public’s health and getting it closed down.

“The franchisee is taking the appropriate steps to address the issue” 100% guarantee that they already knew there was a problem with rats but they didn’t care. You don’t have that big of a rat problem and NOT know about it.

Popeyes Manager: Who's the wise guy that snitched on us? It's gotta be a rat around here. FESS UP!😂😂😂😂😂

“You still love that chicken from Popeyes?” 🤣

This "Rat Snitch" gets my vote. He did the right thing and saved many people from getting sick.

The best thing Popeyes could do here is hire that man and appoint him as a Quality Compliance Manager at the HQ.

“Anyone Can Cook” 🤣

'The rats were so big that I thought they were the owner's cats' Gordon Ramsay

So if this video wasn't up, this Popeyes would still be open? Health inspectors need to be fired

The rats looked in good shape and their ability to climb walls was unparalleled in Washington DC! Good work sir reporting it! No rats were hurt while filming this video. Afterwards we’re not sure!

Rats resemble politicians when you ask a logical question

You know what they call rats? Chicken of the subway tunnel.

Food cleanliness and safety is a top priority... now that we got caught....

dude got some serious balls to post this video and show his face to the public, but he's an example of the brave people we need to make our country a better place

Bruh they can’t even get a simple order correct. Worldwide 🤣.

That guy who did the right thing told the truth… saved people from getting sick… now he’s suspended! He deserves to have a job.

Temporarily closed? Na, this needs to STAY closed. That is nasty!

Real life ratatouille

“ ya stil like that Popeyes” 😭😂😂😂

How embarrassing for the popeyes owner. I'm glad health department exist.

"You still love that chicken from Popeye's?" LOL!! Thank you for LITERALLY shedding light on this GROSS facility!

What?! They should lose their franchise... This is a non-rectifiable behavioral issue

I was going to make a joke about Remy, but everyone beat me to it lmao

KFC: “finally, a worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!”

"Food safety and cleanliness is a top priority at Popeyes." I think they meant for the rats.

Everyone’s a gangster until the Popeyes Delivery man exposes a rat infected Popeyes

Just some politicians stopping by for a bite after a day at "work".

Ayo someone call Remy cuz clearly those rats weren’t invited 😤

That’s about the most sanitary Popeyes I’ve ever seen

Oh barnicles looks like ratitutie found cheese for his friends💀

The way he said “Look at em” 😂 and “you still love that chicken from Popeyes” 😂

The city should hire THIS man to be a health inspector. I can already tell he's far more qualified than the joker running the health department now! How did this restaurant get a pass?!

This is one of the reasons why I stopped eating at restaurants & just eat at home

Damn! Those rats look big enough to carry away a box of chicken. 😂

Man: You still love that chicken from Popeyes? Me: No sir🫡

People like this should be rewarded. A gofund to incentivize them to speak up since you know they will get fired for showing this.

The people who disliked probably loved that chicken from Popeyes

That’s EVERY fast food restaurant in the Denver Metro.

I don't mind that "extra seasoning " to the chicken !!! 🤣🤣🤣

The only mistake this guy did was identifying this himself. He should have posted everything anonymously.

Imagine if you just ate from there the day before. How many kids have eaten the left overs for lunch today. Bless this man for speaking up.

Rats : this is a good parkour training area

The sad part is Popeye's already fired this guy for putting this on the Internet first and not contacting corporate first.

I am SO grateful to this man for speaking up. The people in his area need to thank him for potentially saving their lives. If you see something, say something.

If there is that many rats in the single establishment, then it means it has been an ongoing problem if they have ignored. Seriously, that is way too many rats for a single place.

Damn, no wonder Popeyes is liked. They got ratatouille.

Imagine being married to this woman and having to deal with the horror that is her voice every day

I am so glad this guy is informing people about this!

Not just at that Popeyes. I bet 50% of restaurants have rats.
