![]() ![]() ![]() That I’d roll up to the drive-thru only to be told they were sold out. For whatever reason, the media is really working hard to hype up these nuggets (no doubt a result of all the traffic they got from writing about the original sandwich), but when I arrived at my local Popeyes on drop day to order an 8-count meal, there wasn’t even a line in the drive-thru.īack in 2019, when I covered the sandwich drop, I waited in a line and was still eating my sandwich at a table when the management came out to announce that they had sold out for the day. The Takeout ran a piece titled “Will Popeyes’ new chicken nuggets cause a ruckus?” Nope. Yet I kept seeing article after article declaring that these new nuggets were “hotly” or “highly” anticipated. I don’t know if any single fast food item will ever have as much hype as that original sandwich drop. Unfortunately, this fix doesn’t quite work. Clearly, this was something Popeyes wanted to remedy with the announcement of a new chicken nugget. For a place with a sandwich so good, there is no excuse for having lackluster tenders. Having said that, the Popeyes Chicken Tender is in need of some serious work. In addition to the title of best fried chicken sandwich in the game, Popeyes has the best sides of any chicken joint, and their bone-in chicken offerings, available in both mild and spicy formulations, are also fast food’s best. Burger King ditched their old chicken sandwich for something new and the mighty McDonald’s launched not just one new chicken sandwich but three! In the two years since Popeyes dropped their new sandwich, we’ve seen just about every chain try to swipe at that crown - reformulating recipes and expanding their menus in an attempt to satiate our undying appetite for the perfect bird between bread. It’s no secret that Popeyes makes the best fried chicken sandwich in the fast food galaxy.
