(FOX 46 CHARLOTTE) — It’s a battle of the chicken sandwiches.
This month, Popeyes rolled out their new chicken sandwich, and it sparked some Twitter beef with the makers of the”original” southern chicken sandwich– Chick-fil-A.
Chick-fil-A tweeted on Monday, only saying “Bun + Chicken + Pickles = all the â¤ï¸ for the original.”

Some Twitter users called attention to the fact that it seemed somewhat similar to Popeyes Aug. 12 tweet, which started off with “Chicken. Brioche. Pickles.”

Was Chick-fil-A in distress, sending out a reminder that they too have a delicious chicken sandwich? Well, Twitter seemed to think so.

Then Popeyes really went for it, replying to Chick-fil-A’s tweet with “… y’all good?”

No word from Chick-fil-A on their condition at this time, but one this is for sure, Twitter users are enjoying the exchange.

Wendy’s also got in on the game, saying the battle is really between which chicken sandwich is second best. “Y’all out here fighting about which of these fools has the second best chicken sandwich.”
