Papa John’s has decided to replace a famous menu item, Chicken Poppers, with all-new Boneless Chicken Wings.
The news comes from a popularfood outletthat had the opportunity to try the new boneless chicken wings. But, many customers will be disappointed to find out that the new wings are coming at the cost of the chain’s popular Chicken Poppers.
Chicken Poppers featured juicy all-white meat chicken that was lightly breaded, then oven-baked, and tossed in Hot Lemon Pepper sauce for a zesty, spicy flavor.
But there’s good news, as although the Chicken Poppers will be making a final farewell, the new chicken wings received a glowing review. “While at first glance the new Boneless Wings may seem exactly the same as the now-discontinued Chicken Poppers, I can assure you it’s an entirely different product,” the outlet wrote.
“Besides having a different flavor profile and texture, the Boneless Chicken Wings are also bigger, better tasting, and have a bit of spice to them, albeit drier than expected,” they concluded.
The new Boneless Wings will be served with a choice of dipping sauce, including:
As well as this, customers can order them ‘unsauced,’ if they wish. The Boneless Wings come in 10, 15, and 30-piece orders, with prices starting at $8, depending on location. You can find the new wings available right now at participating restaurants.
Papa John’s isn’t the only fast food restaurant bringing out big releases in May. McDoanld’s also announced they’rebringing out a brand new wrap flavor,but it’s only available in certain locations.
