Family Feud has proven to be prime entertainment for the whole family which is why bringing it to Canada made so much sense. The show has already proven to produce some hilarious viral content. Just the other day, a woman named Eve Dubois became a viral sensation after she provided an incorrect answer to the question of what Popeye's favorite food was. Clearly hungry, she announced that it was chicken instead of spinach, she copped a big ole L.

Popeyes Chicken has now awarded her with $10K worth of Popeyes chicken. The company reached out to her Twitter where they asked that she DMs them in order to claim her consolation prize. ".@sublimevey! Our survey says you got that right. DM us to claim your $10,000 worth of Popeyes," the company tweeted at her.
She accepted publicly, even poking fun of her ridiculous response. But it was the show's host, Gerry D, who helped facilitate this. "Hey @PopeyesCA, how about doing something for @sublimevey who single handedly brought you a lot of love today. She’s been a great sport and only knows one Popeye-yours! #Chicken," he tweeted at the company beforehand.
While it might not be $10K in cash, chicken will have to do.
"Family Feud" Contestant Confuses Popeye The Sailorman For Fast Food Chain
Yes… Canada has its own version of “Family Feud.”
Hilariously wrong answers on the game show Family Feud have become a mainstay in popular culture that transcends every niche, sub-group of individuals across the country. For some reason, the masses love just watching other people be embarrassingly wrong about the simplest of subjects. Surprisingly, Americans aren’t the only ones that get enjoyment out of watching people fail epically when asked questions because Canada has its own version of the highly-popularized Family Feud.
Family Feud: Canada‘s rendition of the game show ditches the comedic stylings of Steve Harvey and his infamous suits for Canadian actor/comedian, Gerry Dee. While the hosts may not be the same, the concept remains the same where contests guess the closest to correct answer based on a question surveyed by a hundred different patrons.
In this particular episode the Dubois family of Lorette, MB faced off against Tomlins family of Waterloo, ON. In the sudden death round, Logan took on Eve in a winner takes all one-answer question to which Gerry Dee asked, “What’s Popeye’s favorite food?”
Eve got to the buzzer first to which she answered, “Chickennnn,” whilst rolling her shoulders as if she was in a Mary J. Blige music video. To her family’s disappointed body language and the laughter of the crowd, Eve realized the mistake that cost her family a $10,000 cash prize. Logan was able to retort stating, “Show me spinach, Gerry,” calmly solidifying the bag for his family.
