"In a statement to Reuters, Chick-fil-A said the policy change was due to challenges it foresees finding chicken supplies that "meets our rigid standards.""
So, clearly, the solution is "lower your standards"? 🤔
If the other choice is make less money then it's obvious what corporations will do
I don't get the popularity of Chick-fil-A. Bland sandwiches and little variety.
It has a conservative Christian cult following due to the founder’s political and religious views.
They don't give a shit about LGBT lives, but they sure do give a shit about antibiotics... I'll give you a single guess as to why.
Turns frogs gay?
Extremely gay
No it doesn't. It's just generally immensely popular.
First off, remember it's fast food, standards are abysmal.
But it's an actual piece of chicken, that's actually prepared correctly.
If you got it in a sit down restaurant or even pub, you wouldn't comment on it.
But compare it to any other chicken sandwich you could get from a drive thru in the last 20 years and the hype makes sense.
No matter where you are, if you see a chicfila you know you'll get a decent chicken sandwich that isn't ridiculously expensive.
A burger place isn't going to do chicken as well as a dedicated chicken place, and KFC is a joke, so the only real competition for that niche is Popeyes on a national level.
I guess you can still call it good but they switched to Tyson on the East Coast like 10 years ago and yeah it's bland and generic.
KFC in North America could learn a thing or two from KFC in China. It's their McDonald's.
Dave's Hot Chicken would like a word with you.
Well if there was one within a thousand miles of me Maybe it could
Twenty years ago? Probably?
Ten years ago? Doubtful
But the past few years have seen most of the fast food fried chicken places go hard on chicken sandwiches. And even mcdonald's has stepped up their game to being actually pretty decent.
Mostly chikfila just coasts on their recognition from 20 years ago and the zealots who refuse to try anything else.
Your forgot expensive too.
Everything is expensive now
Seriously. It's like being in love with average quality.
In my city, the dive bar makes better chicken sandwiches. How depressing that people live like that.
The peach milkshake slaps but the food sucks. Popeyes is better for God’s sake.
Of course I stopped going entirely after they said they stopped donating to LGBTQA+ groups and then got fucking caught doing it yet again so yeah fuck Hate Chicken
Chick-fil-A budget
Food $200
Data $150
Rent $800
Homophobia $3,600
Utility $150
someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my company is dying
Stop spending so much on homophobia
If you could get them to ignore their "moral compass" you could save them $4,416
Fuck ChikFila and thier bigot sponsors.
Just tell your customers you upped the Jesus in every sandwich and they'll overlook everything else.
Fuck chick fil a. Since I worked there back in 2015, they've cut portion sizes by almost a third and raised priced by almost 50%.
I call bullshit. You can source antibiotic free chicken if you'll pay for it, they're just trying to extract more profit again.
Insofar as I recall they're still one of the better fast food joints wrt worker treatment.
It's a very mixed bag, due to the fact that most of them are franchises.
I remember when I quit and went to amazon, my hourly went up by more than 50%. I worked 20 hours less every week and for health insurance.
But there's also some near me with signs up advertising $18/hour.
I bet god spoke to the CEO one night as a burning sack of cash and said this was a great idea.
Is it still going to be soggy and disgusting?
That's the secret ingredient: homophobia
Still hatin’ teh gheys tho
Rather they changed their politics instead of their shitty diabetes.menu
Fuck chikfila, and fuck you if you spend your money there. Fucking bigots
Shitty company who hates regular people does a thing and I don’t care.
Maybe they should try making it good.
Soggy salty chicken sandwich was fine in 2003 when everyone else was doing dry chicken sandwich. Now the meta is crunchy and juicy chicken sandwich so CFA is just mid.
I'm thinking that this homophobic fast food restaurant does not warrant the amount of comments in this thread. Yes I am aware of the irony of my commenting.
