Fast feud: Popeyes, Wendy's dish out deep-fried digs over whose chicken sandwich slaps

(WXYZ) — The battle of the chicken sandwiches hit social media Monday.

After Popeyes released its first fried chicken sandwich nationwide last week to rave reviews, a few chain competitors chimed in to remind customers of the classic taste they love.

The Twitter feud started when Chick-fil-A essentially tweeted that they're not new to the game, they're true to the game – highlighting its sandwich as "The original."

Popeyes quickly replied by tweeting the question, "Y'all good?", sensing the closed-on-Sundays restaurant might have been a bit pressed about the new release.

The mocking tone of its tweet garnered a lot of attention. And of course, Wendy's couldn't stay out of the fray. The clapback queen herself tweeted this from her throne:

Popeyes was having none of it, and quickly responded with this seemingly self-deprecating deep-fried dig:

A couple other fast food chains, including Shake Shack and Bojangles', tried to make a claim for their sandwich but were immediately shut down by some Twitter users.

It got so hot in the kitchen, Bojangles' went ahead and deleted their tweet.
