      It's been here forever in Canada. Never got it though. Did get the fish sandwich. I like the way Popeyes Chicken tastes but I have a reaction to it so if I'm going, I stick to fish.

      Yes. I quietly had the spicy version with onion rings back in mid July. It was decent. The sandwich has been out since at least June. The commercial with the lady and the psychiatrist he been running for months. Did Popeyes relaunch the sandwich in August? It seemed like everyone woke up at the same time and realized Popeyes had a chicken sandwich

      Frank C I heard that the released it in May and didn’t much attention until August, but everything I can find online says it launched Aug 12... Maybe it was first launched a couple months ago to a few test area’s and was launched nationwide August 12. That’s the only thing I can think of... if that’s not the case then I’m confused as hell.

    Folks, it's a marketing strategy. If I owned a restaurant, I would do the same thing. Whenever I'd introduce a new food item, I'd make sure not to have more than 15 of them. That way I could tell people, "Sorry folks, we sold out already. They sold like hotcakes!" Everybody will be anxious to try them after I put the word out.

And the TH-camr and FB and other social media platforms are helping Popeyes sell their chicken sandwiches free advertising and words of mouth...

      @00 00 Despite that I eat it too sometimes, consider (among other things) the employees not always washing their hands.

    The arrested development joke gave me chills. I’ve never heard that joke used well and I always try to find a good chance to say sandwich instead of sentence! Epic!

    Its a marketing tactic.
    1. Intentionally create a numbered amount of sandwiches.
    2. Post blah, blah, blah on social media
    3. Wait for the uproar.
    4. Sell them again at a higher price claiming "Limited Quantity"
