o They’re testing out a new menu item
o It’s called the “I Don’t Know Meal” for people who can’t decide what to eat.
o It’s specifically geared toward people in relationships who want Popeyes, but their partner doesn’t know what to get.
o So when you ask and they say, “I don’t know,” you can respond with, “Okay, great. I’ll get you that then.”

o And if you order online through their app, you get one of their new “premium lemonades” for free.”
o It’s available for a limited time at participating locations.
