We are not too far removed from the Chicken Sandwich that changed the way we eat a chicken sandwich. Remember simpler times, when the only crowds we had to worry about were the ones outside of Popeyes?
Well . . . KFC hasn’t forgotten. Almost a year later, they’re now testing a new chicken sandwich at stores in Orlando, Florida that’s JUST like the one from Popeyes that was such a huge hit last year.
And they even admitted they’re basically trying to copy Popeyes.
KFC’s chief marketing officer says, quote, “We wanted a chicken sandwich that really lives up to our legacy as the fried chicken experts and, let’s face it, ours wasn’t the one to beat.”
There’s no word on when the sandwich might go on sale nationwide.
