Yeah, I think they have really good food, if a bit minimalistic. Mmm, Chick-fil-a.

They have them in Colorado, so I eat it occasionally when we take trips out there. None in Nebraska.

I love that place. I usually get the original sandwich combo with waffle fries and cole slaw. Um um good.

I only get to a Chick-fil-A when I travel for work which is 3-4 times a year. The last two times I really thought something had been changed in their recipe (the CFA sandwich). Can't put my finger on it but it was not quite as tasty as in the past. First time I noticed it was in October.

Any of the CFA regulars notice that?

Maybe? If it did change...I got used to it.

I think their food is less flavorful and the portions are a tad smaller.

Best it is still some of the best chicken on a bun you can get, and the waffle fries are good too.

I worked at a Chick Fil A for like my 3rd job or so, I was 17 , so 1987.

Anyways I love the food and it was a good job overall , the orginization is very religious though. They were always closed on Sundays and they sort of pushed the bible on all the employees. Not really hard but a little...for example we had a Christmas party at the bosses house and had a gift exchange. I asked for a King Diamond CD and got a Petra CD instead. :D

Actually I have not eaten at a Chik Fil A since the 80's so they may very well have changed quite a bit since then.

They are one of the only fast food places I eat at anymore. In reality everyone says that it is overpriced. I pay like 5.50 for a meal there. I could go down to mcdonalds or wendys and get out a little under 5, but in all honesty, that extra 50 cents is well worth it. i usually eat there 2x a week, its gooooooooood....

Good stuff..

I always get the same thing:

6 pack kids meal with sweet tea, waffle fries, and ice cream instead of the toy...usually runs for about $3.15.
