I have eaten at one once, it was at a shopping center in Atlanta. I had a chicken sandwich and waffle fries. I remember the waffle fries as being pretty damn tasty and the chicken sandwich as being nothing special. It was a standard chicken sandwich, not a spicy one.
Chick-Fil-A is a license to print money. Outside of right when they open, I've never seen on which wasn't packed with customers.
Yeah, their nuggets are the best. Are there any other fast food places that use non-processed meat for their nuggets?
the buffalo sauce is great. texas pete is meh. people from north carolina should stop trying to mimic texas because they're failing badly. under 1,000 scovilles? lame.we don't get Texas Pete (at Chik Fil-A) in MD! Just that stuff they call "buffalo sauce" ...it's actually OK, but I think they put eggs in that shit for some reason. Still, I eat it.
You crazy.
Overall it does sound like your experiences there are quite different than the ones here though, line isn't usually more than three deep when I go, and the cashiers are all competent. Guess those factors are probably related.
I love fried chicken and BBQ as much as anyone having grown up in the South. Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich is not bland. It's salty and little boring but that's Southern style chicken sandwich for you. It's simple with just pickles, chicken breast, and butter toasted buns but simplicity can be a good thing.I'm not trying to be obtuse or troll here, I just genuinely don't get how their chicken is anything but bland. Maybe it's having been raised on fantastic fried chicken, maybe they add too much sugar and it kills the taste, maybe I'm just wired differently. I don't know, but it just doesn't do anything for me tastewise. The meat is higher quality than most places, but unless you get the spicy chicken with the Texas Pete sauce, it's a really boring bite. I'm not saying anyone is wrong for liking it, but I seem to have a different Chick-fil-a experience than the rest of you.

It sounds like perhaps you consider all chicken sandwiches bland?I'm not trying to be obtuse or troll here, I just genuinely don't get how their chicken is anything but bland.

The primary factor by which a hot sauce should be judged is not "does it hurt when I poo?"Hot sauce isn't meant to be hot? What the shit is that?

That's the best part of some; burns both ways.The primary factor by which a hot sauce should be judged is not "does it hurt when I poo?"
I guess if you're into masochism? I do eat things on occasion that are spicy enough to make me sweat a little, and I can feel more or less where it is in my intestines on the way to the exit, but I certainly don't savor the sting ring part of the experience.That's the best part of some; burns both ways.
There's an ocean of difference between so hot it burns out your colon 2 hours later and so mild you can't taste anything. Texas Pete is the latter. At least step it up to Crystal.The primary factor by which a hot sauce should be judged is not "does it hurt when I poo?"
The thing is that you're wrong? I can absolutely taste something when I eat Texas Pete, and it tastes good.There's an ocean of difference between so hot it burns out your colon 2 hours later and so mild you can't taste anything. Texas Pete is the latter. At least step it up to Crystal.

Crystal is more for the vinegar than the hot sauce IMO.
I like ketchup with my fries. Suck it.I like Hot sauce on my fries because the proper one for fries provides the only thing that is ever needed on potatoes: vinegar and a little salt. Some extra cayenne without all of the flavor-murder is a nice bonus. I'm more an more convinced that the "most be hotter than Hades!" hot sauce people simply don't care about food--just like Ketchup eaters!
crystal is 3x the scovilles of texas pete. texas pete is under 1000. that's about as mild as a pepper can get and not be a bell pepper. it's not hot, so how is it a hot sauce? again, i'm not saying it needs to be 10,000+ scovilles to be a hot sauce. not at all. but under 1000? it's not hot sauce. it's just north carolina fail. like double dipped brisket.
It's hot sauce, regardless of whether you think it's hot enough. I'm unaware of a universal standard that defines a a cut-off under which a sauce cannot be labeled "hot sauce". The fact that it has any scoville units at all would seem to underpin the fact that it is indeed a "hot sauce".crystal is 3x the scovilles of texas pete. texas pete is under 1000. that's about as mild as a pepper can get and not be a bell pepper. it's not hot, so how is it a hot sauce? again, i'm not saying it needs to be 10,000+ scovilles to be a hot sauce. not at all. but under 1000? it's not hot sauce. it's just north carolina fail. like double dipped brisket.
I'm from NC and never heard of this. Probably something that the hillbillies in the west, that probably consider themselves Tennesseens, do. Whatever that is, it ain't right. and it ain't NC.
