Popeyes stores across the country have been selling out of the sandwich after a Twitter feud between Chick-fil-A and Popeyes inspired consumers to taste the new sandwich for themselves.
The fried chicken chain officially launched the sandwich Aug. 12, calling its first nationwide chicken sandwich their biggest launch in nearly 30 years. The company said that it "aggressively" forecasted demand through the end of September but has already sold out of that inventory. "As a result, Popeyes restaurants across the country are expected to sell out of the Chicken Sandwich by the end of the week," spokeswoman Brooke Scher Mogan said in a statement.
Popeyes said that it is working with its suppliers to bring the chicken sandwich back as soon as possible.

CNBC So what, there are much more important things to report on!!! GetAGrip
CNBC Sandwich was ok. I'd probably get it again if I was ever back in a Popeye's. That being said, not worth the insane amount of hype it received.
CNBC So much for giving it a try today

CNBC A Spokesperson from Chik-Fil-A commented:

CNBC It's not new the damn sandwich has been out for over six months they used the social media platform to promote it. And likely that's some old ass chicken they've sold out of. So I might try another one again now.

Popeyeschicken I must tell you that I tried your food for the first time ever today.... and definitely the last time. Simply put, it was terrible.
Them running out of stuff is nothing new.
It's chicken, flour, egg, and bread...How do you run out of that?
Amateur hour
Got my tent camped out since I’m an idiot and then I’ll get my pumpkin spice latte since I eat garbage constantly yet it’s body shaming if anyone says anything.
News Alert: This is just an average chicken sandwich (lacks flavor and seasoning) and is NOT better than Chick-fil-A.
I don't get this. What exactly are they sold out of? Aren't these just chicken breasts, breadcrumbs, flour, spices and egg wash and a bun? How does a chain 'sell out' of these things?
Yet 45 percent of Americans don’t vote.
Popeyes rules the chicken world. The absolute BEST chicken!

It's just chicken. May we have a moment of silence for the T-Rex. 😎👍 Unless you can verify that each person who voted did in fact taste-test each sandwich, your results are invalid.
