For several months, McDonald's has been gradually hinting at the potential return of its immensely cherished Snack Wraps. There is no official confirmation of that occurrence; nevertheless, one establishment that has a similar ambiance is Popeyes.


On Monday, the fast food restaurant announced the launch of its Popeyes Chicken Wraps, which it claims provide the "same legendary Louisiana flavor with a novel twist." Enveloped, secured, and designed for mobility with you.


The brand stated that the wraps consist of a hand-breaded and battered chicken tender from Popeyes, accompanied by lettuce, shredded cheese, and crunchy pickles, and are finished with a choice of Classic, Spicy, or Honey Mustard spread, all "enveloped in a soft, warm tortilla inspired by our renowned biscuits."


“Our new Chicken Wraps feature our signature chicken tenders encased in a novel format, delivering the same desirable crunch in a fresh, convenient manner,” stated Chef Amy Alarcon, vice president of culinary innovation at Popeyes. “Our objective was to develop a Chicken Wrap that was unmistakably representative of Popeyes.” Incorporating the flavors of our renowned biscuit into our wraps was an ideal method to guarantee the prominence of our unique tastes.


The one unfortunate aspect is that the chicken wraps are available just for a limited duration. The favorable information is that the brand is offering them for a price of $3.99 apiece.



Popeyes has introduced more new items beyond the wraps. The brand is also launching new beverages, including Blueberry Lemonade (Chilled or Frozen), Blueberry Cane Sweet Tea, and Blueberry Unsweet Tea.


These new offerings would complement Popeyes' recently introduced pickle menu, featuring the Pickle Glaze Sandwich, described as "a briny twist on the iconic Popeyes Chicken Sandwich," the Pickle Glaze Bone-In Wings, which provide "the perfect balance of savory heat and briny goodness in every bite," and the Pickle Glaze Boneless Wings, characterized by "all the crunch, all the flavor — none of the bones." Additionally, fried pickles are also available.


“As enthusiasts of pickles, we recognize that there can never be an excess of pickles," Alarcon previously stated to Food & Wine. This pickle-laden assortment was designed to guarantee an ideal equilibrium of crunchy texture, lively acidity, and our renowned Louisiana tastes in each bite. If you appreciate that chicken, you will certainly enjoy that pickle.


This is a time-sensitive promotion, so ensure you capitalize.
