The launch of Popeyes’ chicken sandwich in the summer of 2019 was an inflection point for the fast-food company. After a lighthearted Twitter feud with rival chicken chains, Popeyes’ chicken sandwich became an overnight success and kicked-off what industry analysts call the “chicken sandwich wars”. But can a simple chicken sandwich save a company that once filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection?

How Popeyes’ Chicken Sandwich Changed Fast Food
source
I ate Popeyes yesterday. Thanks to their chicken, I've been stuck on the toilet all morning with a bad case of mudd butt.
Fast forward to 2024 and…hmmm, what happened? You barely hear a peep about their chicken sandwich any more.
Chic fil a
Where?
Food for thought
I’m eating Popeyes while watching this 🍗🍽️😋
Popeyes tastes better but frankly I just avoid it because fried chicken tends to make my stomach feel bad afterwards. That being said I do love their fried chicken and if I’m getting a fried chicken sandwich Popeyes has the best standard offering hands down imo
they are all owned by blackstone anyways
Not impressed.
Only in America

Church's where I am in Canada (Alberta an dBC) uses grade 2 roasting chicken, often showing bruising. Unlike the old KFC which uses top grade frying chicken. Popeye's has shown up recently but is not mainstream just yet. Had it in LA near a building supply. Not bad. Got to try the sandwich though!!
Popeye's has the best chicken ever and great video man :]
Ill be honest that spicy chicken sandwich from popeyes is probably one of the better things ive had from a fast food restaurant
Every time I'm on that side of town ain't even gone lie pick me UP some POPEYES 🧡 🤍🧡🤍 gotta start keeping honey 🍯 bear 🐨 in my 👛 purse they caught me slipping last time
Wendy's getting smoked by the chicken sandwich
growing up in the late 90's & early 00's, ive never heard anyone say lets go to popeyes. It was always lets go to KFC when it comes to chicken.
Holy poultry Batman…that chicken sandwich is the best thing I have eaten in a long time. And the piped in cajun music had my feet tapping and my head bopping.
Considering that fast food chicken sandwiches aren't 100% chicken, I won't eat there. These companies are poisoning people and getting away with it.
Popeyes is DELICIOUS
I just saw their $29.99 commercial for 4 and laughed so hard I almost fell off the couch. Let's see,
-6 pieces of chicken for $6; two sides for $3 (they say large but…); 4 biscuits for $1.20; and 2 chicken sandwiches for $5 equals $15-and no drinks. Make it $12.99 with a drink and you have a deal.
