Chicken Sandwich

“After Popeyes debuted its own chicken sandwich earlier this month, Popeyes and Chick-fil-A engaged in a Twitter feud over which chain had the better sandwich. Following the viral spat, Popeyes locations across the US saw a massive uptick in customer visits and chicken sandwich orders. Many locations have been selling out of the item, and employees are working on overdrive to cater to the high demand.”
