Popeyes announced the national release of their new Sweet & Crunchy Tenders,Watch Mirror Twins Online and we're pretty sure this idea was born from a not-so-sober late night fridge raid involving a chicken drumstick and a tub of cookie dough.

The new treat isn't exactly the cookie-chicken mashup you're imagining (we were picturing an ice cream sandwich of sorts, but with chicken instead of ice cream). The tenders are made with a shortbread cookie coating that gives the chicken its sweet taste and crunchy texture.

To us, this sounds like the perfect combination between salty and sweet, or a great opportunity to have dessert for dinner. But others are not as impressed.

Fried chicken and cookie lovers will be able to try this tasty food trend now through June 25. Hustle on down to your local bake-- err Popeyes today.
