I had Chick-Fil-A for lunch today. I don't consume it as much as I used to, but it's decent. And while I'm not a religious nut case, I do respect the company for it's willingness to fore go a whole day's worth of revenue for the sake/original reason of Christian Sabbath. Plenty of "Christian" business leaders out there who would never do such a thing.

Not to mention scholarships offered to their employees.

I tried the spicy chicken today. I haven't had Chik-Fil-A in forever.

In Florida our 'combos' include the sandwich, fries, and drink; our 'meals' include sandwich, fries, slaw and drink. Anyway I ordered the meal and was told that the meal here is only fries and drink. Instead of the cole slaw I ordered a spicy deluxe.

When I ate them I thought I was eating the spicy one first, but it was just the regular. It tasted spicier than I remember. I am thinking it gets crossed with the spices in cooking/preparation. I liked it better than the spicy chicken one I had second. It wasn't bad, but the spices didn't gel with the sandwich. I felt it made 'hot' just to be 'hot' and I prefer the foods where the heat is more natural.

It was still a good sandwich. I also like there chicken salad sandwich with some chicken soup.

Chicken lovers rejoice, a much beloved fast food restaurant says it is coming to the Bay Area.

Chick-fil-A announced it will open 90 new stores this year and at least one of them will be here in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Alky, when did this thread become all about you? From my perspective, it looks like... right around post #57.

I'd probably do the same thing if I were gay. Since I'm not, I don't give a shit.

well, I'm not gay and I do give a shit about such things (simply because it doesn't effect me directly doesn't make it unimportant); but rumor is that Chik Fil-A has changed their ways.

...that's the idea, anyway. I know the CEO gave a half-assed, non-committal anti-apology regarding the issue, but that's more a reflection of his personal opinion.

The company policy, however, seems to have done a 180 after the backlash, and that's what matters, I think.
