Popeyes' latest limited time offering is the Cheddar Biscuit Butterfly Shrimp. It features marinated butterfly shrimp in a cheddar biscuit breading that's fried to a golden brown.

A $5.99 combo meal includes eight Cheddar Biscuit Butterfly Shrimp, one regular side, a biscuit, and the chain's new Ghost Pepper Jelly for dipping.

While Cheddar Biscuit Butterfly Shrimp will officially launch nationwide on Monday, June 26, 2017, some locations have already been spotted frying up the new dish before the official launch date.

Ian Keiner, aka Peep THIS Out! on his YouTube channel was lucky enough to get an early look and taste of the new menu item over the weekend.

As Ian points out in his Cheddar Biscuit Butterfly Shrimp review, ”It looks like Popeyes is taking a page from the Red Lobster playbook by lighting up their butterfly shrimp this month with a very familiar looking cheddar biscuit coating that looks very similar to the Cheddar Bay Biscuits from the other guys."

Takuan · Jul 4, 2017

I will have this.

LQX · Jul 4, 2017

I tried this today. It was pretty good. Did not taste all that cheesy though.

Van Bur3n · Jul 4, 2017

This restaurant is one of the few things good about this world.

Wish it was always available, it's the best!

Hmmmmmmmm.

I will allow it.

moggio · Jul 4, 2017

That's not cheddar.

Also this looks awful.

JeffZero · Jul 4, 2017

I can't even do cheese + fried chicken so I cannot stomach the unsactioned buffoonery of cheese + shrimp.

Aquavelvaman · Jul 4, 2017

I'm gonna pass

biggersmaller · Jul 4, 2017

"Cheddar" + shrimp.

LOL

Big Blue · Jul 4, 2017

Bad time to be on a cut.

Okay but how does it even look awful

The picture is literally just fried shrimp, biscuits, and fries.

Shrimp + biscuits is the business for Popeyes.
Fried chicken I'm going for wings from my Chinese restaurant.

It speaks for itself.

What am I not seeing that you are? Apart from how awful that food looks.

Replicant · Jul 4, 2017

Oh God. Why is no one bringing the Popeye's franchise to Australia?

I love it whenever I have a stopover in Singapore because I get to gorge myself on their Fried Chickens.

RiderKairuu · Jul 4, 2017

Looks good and I actually want to try it.

What a weird series of posts. It looks like fried shrimp, which is awesome and delicious.

Well it's orange for a start.

Disagree.

US only? We have Popeyes over here now too, guys.

Cheddar can be orange. Never had Wisconsin cheddar?

Lord Fagan · Jul 4, 2017

Don't know about fast food shrimp, but cheddar biscuits sounds like more of the good work from the artisan monks from Popeye's.

Red Leicester?

Don't think so. Is that a farm in Somerset?

sixteen-bit · Jul 4, 2017

I'll give it a try

Right. This needs to be on the chicken damnit.

Kieli · Jul 4, 2017

That sounds like a lot of food for $6....

In Canada, $6 will get you maybe half the cardboard container. Food not included.

Ah, so you've never had good cheddar then.

Not sure why you came into a thread clearly about fried shrimp to let us all know your disdain for fried shrimp.

Go salivate over some pictures of kale chips or something?

Beartruck · Jul 4, 2017

Welp, I had a good run.

One of the truly good things about America is that, compared to other countries, food is very cheap and always served in large quantities.

Irnbru · Jul 4, 2017

Any good?

The Canadian website has it advertised at 7 bucks which is a nice surprise

Speevy · Jul 4, 2017

What mad scientist was looking at fast food trends and said "It just isn't killing them fast enough."

Why do you think it's so cheap?

The answer is: massive destruction of natural habitat to intensively farm poor quality shrimps with slave labour.

The end product looks almost as grim.

But, I mean, it's the truth.

You could choose to eat something less horrible both environmentally and quality wise.

Treat yourself.

See the problem I see is that you don't believe in the shrimps. They could grow up to be the next president with the right amount of orange flavoring.
