Popeyes menu: You’ll want to try the new Cajun Flounder Sandwich

When most folks think of Popeyes, they think of chicken. In particular, their new Chicken Sandwiches that went viral all over social media and sold out everywhere. This launched, what foodies have called, the Great Chicken Sandwich Wars. (Insert ominous music here.)

Now it is being reported that Popeyes isn’t happy just being a big player in the chicken sandwich game. Apparently, they have begun to expand into other areas beyond chicken, namely fish, and the fish sandwich.

Could we be looking at a Great Fish Sandwich war to come? We’ll have to wait and see.

It is being reported by the seafood-loving folks at Chewboom that Popeyes is launching a new Cajun Fish Sandwich this week. It is the chain’s first foray into offering a fish sandwich and it already has plenty of people pretty excited.

Say hello to the brand new Popeyes Cajun Flounder Sandwich.

The Cajun Flounder Sandwich includes a piece of Pacific Flounder seasoned with cajun seasoning, dipped in southern coating, and then fried to a golden brown. Popeyes then puts the flounder between a toasted brioche bun with pickles and tartar sauce.

If you’re thinking that sounds pretty good, Popeyes agrees. In fact, they agree so much they will be offering Sandwich Insurance in the form of a love it or replace it guarantee the day it launches. It’ll cost you a whole dime and will only be available through the Popeyes app.

The new Popeyes Cajun Flounder Sandwich arrives everywhere on Thursday, Feb. 11, and will cost you $4.49. Will we see the same kind of frenzied reaction we saw when the company launched its Chicken Sandwich? Time will tell.

What do you think Guilty Eaters? Does the Cajun Flounder Sandwich sound like a winner? Will you be posting pics of them on your Instagram?
