Cardi B Hilariously Has Some Strong Thoughts On New Popeyes Wing Flavor: ‘It Taste Like A Sprite Soda.’ 

"There are not many places you can order Popeyes wings at 4:30 a.m., but New York City lives up to its “city that never sleeps” nickname. After a night in the studio and looking for some fuel before hitting the gym, Cardi B ordered the new honey lemon pepper flavored wings at Popeyes and gave a brutally honest review for fans to hear on social media during the wee hours of Wednesday morning (July 24).

“Popeyes y’all really fumbled with this flavor because this flavor is not it,” she declared in a video on Instagram Stories. “This lemon pepper flavor with honey or this sweet taste on it, it’s just not good. It tastes like a f–king Sprite soda. I don’t f–king like it.

Cardi continued: “From one through 10, I’ll give it a two. I like the other one, I like the sweet heat. I was trying to be a lil’ different. I was trying to do lemon pepper, [but] I did not [think] it was gonna come with a sweet kick to it. I don’t f–king like it. It’s a dub.”

The Grammy-winning rapper shared she’d been in the studio for three straight nights and it was finally time to go home and hit the gym. However, she showed some love to NYC for having late-night food options, unlike a lot of cities across the United States.

“Which state is better than New York? Because were are literally eating Popeyes still at 4:30 in the morning,” she said. “That’s crazy. There’s no place on earth that’s serving Popeyes at 4:30 in the morning. Even though it’s a dub … Your state is not giving like New York!”

A rep for Popeyes tells Billboard that the chain welcomes all “rankings and reviews” of its wings from customers.

“If you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen,” a rep for the company quips. “And we are in the kitchen. A lot. … We believe variety is the spice of life and that’s why we have six flavors for wing enthusiasts like Cardi to enjoy. We are not surprised that Cardi loved our Sweet ‘N Spicy wings flavor. Our people will be in contact with her people for a taste of all flavors for the next studio session. And while we wait on her next late-night review, we encourage guests to share their personal Wings ratings with us on social.”

It’s not the first time Cardi B has been critical of Popeyes. In June 2023, she posted a video eating chicken from the fast food chain and complained about it being too big and “the size of her face.”

“Literally, it’s the size of my face — look! It’s too big, it’s too big for me and I don’t like that,” she said at the time." - Billboard.com
