Lines Filled New York City for the Return of the Popeye's Chicken Sandwich
America loves that chicken from Popeye's.
The Popeye’s chicken sandwich returned to the menu Sunday after a two month absence and as expected, it quickly became a hit.
In New York City, the day after the annual Marathon with the city packed with revelers, Inside Edition found a line of folks who slipped out of work to get their hands on the crispy chicken breast on a brioche bun with pickles.
The chicken sandwich was introduced last August and disappeared in two weeks. People have been waiting for its return.
Popeye's posted video with a convoy of trucks saying "this is not a drill....we're fully stocked.
The company says the sandwich is now a permanent menu item.
NFL star Stefon Diggs is wearing Popeye’s inspired cleats and debuted them Sunday, coincidentally the same day the sandwich returned.
