It's only been a few of days since Chick-fil-A announced that it would be releasing a new sandwich, and Popeyes is already in attack mode.

In an Instagram post channeling Taylor Swift and her new album The Tortured Poets Department, Popeyes announced that it would be giving away its new Golden BBQ Sandwich for free.

"Coming Swiftly for this deal 😉 pOPEyes says thaNks! rewardS members: yoU caN enjoy a golDen bbq sAndwich on us when You Spend $10," read the caption to the Instagram photo.

If the bizarre wording looks familiar, that's because it's similar to the style Chick-fil-A uses in its advertisements. You know, the ones with the cows pleading with you to "EAT MOR CHIKIN." All the capital letters spell "open on Sunday," and Chick-fil-A is famously not open on Sunday.

Still not convinced that Popeyes is throwing shade at Chick-fil-A? Well, "#opensundays" was also included in the restaurant's spicy caption.

Fans on social media were quick to point out the Chick-fil-A jab and seemed to almost bask in the shadiness.

"The shade towards Chik-fil-a 😂😂," one user wrote.

"Shots fired... I’m here for it," another person added.

One fan even requested that Taylor Swift be left out of any beef between the two restaurants.

"Don’t do this to me dawg. I’ll let it slide this time. Swift don’t even eat Popeyes fr leave her out of this heaven of a fast food establishment," they wrote.

Welp, it looks like it's time for Chick-fil-A to fight back with a free sandwich offer of their own...
