That means, travelers passing through Terminal C can get a fried chicken meal in a specially designed, chicken-themed carrier box - which is permitted to fly without any restrictions.
You will have to request it though when ordering.
The box reads:
"This chicken provides comfort and nourishment during stressful air travel. Unlike other chicken, it is marinated in real Louisiana spices for 12 hours and must be permitted to fly without restriction. Do not leave unattended, as Popeyes is not responsible for lost or stolen chicken."
