Always.


they are owned by some right wing religous fanatics and never will open on sundays as long as they own the company.

they also have religious/moral themed kid meals as well. Not that big on religion, but I like how it says fvk you to politically correct people.

Exactly what I was going to suggest! I use that stuff on the fries and it's amazing!

I love chick-fil-a! Their wraps are pretty awesome as well.

Also kind of nice how clean they keep them, compared to a wendys its 100% better for sanitation.

I believe they are owned by Baptists. One of the top guys (who I think was part of the family who started) came and talked at the Baptist Church I attended.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chick-fil-A
Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy is a devout Southern Baptist who has taught Sunday School for over 44 years and whose religious beliefs permeate the company to this day. The company's official statement of corporate purpose says that the business exists "to glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us and to have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A."

Technically, you cannot be wrong when stating a preference, but this statement really tests that rule. You are out of your fvcking mind. Zaxby's is horrible.

It is funny reading reactions from non-southerners though. We grew up on Chick-fil-A. That bread-pickles-marinated breast sandwich is so good that McD's added a "southern style" chicken sandwich to try to compete (and failed miserably - that thing is awful).

The only sandwich I've had that I like as much is Wendy's Spicy Chicken. Everything else is a very distant third.

They have lightened up on the kid's meals. They do not sell toys still (usually a book), but the books are not focused on any religion and are often educational. I think I got one which talked about some of the Presidents recently.

their food is great. At the one around here they walk around and hand out mints and wetwipes for after your meal. Also in the summer if the drive-thru line is too long they walk out and give cups of lemonade to those waiting. Good stuff for a fast-food place.

Great customer service there as well. Everything is answered with "It's my pleasure!" At a few restaurants I've had them come to my table and ask me if I want a refill on my drink.

You really should be old enough for a "big kid's meal" at this point.
