You hate Christianity?

It's a tasty chicken sandwich. I've learned to get over the hidden message.:p

I think that there are some problems with the extreme level to which their corporate takes "religion" particularly when it comes to the way their employees are treated. I do not hate Christianity, but their practices have been over the top at times. But that is perhaps getting too much into the OMNI side of things.

I do love the sandwiches, both breaded and grilled versions.

To think or expect that people care about the religious beliefs of the fast food restaurant is absurd. My mom took me to Chic-Fil-A when I was a kid. I highly doubt she knew, or cared, that the owners were religious. I don't appreciate you calling my mother ignorant.

It happens that our "home" CFA exists in a county that has blue laws, so the entire mall was closed on Sundays - I didn't know until recently that all of their shops are closed on Sunday.

Now, can we stop the religion banter and get back to talking about how delicious Chic-Fil-A is before this gets closed? In particular, the Polynesian Sauce is out of control delicious.

I dislike all forms of organized religion, especially the Abrahamic variety. (C,I,J)

But this is a forum for discussion of food and dining. Perhaps you can take the religious discussion to OMNI? Believe me, plenty of interested parties there. :)

Back on topic.

I do enjoy Chick-Fil-A but they just seem more expensive than a similarly priced meal at McD's or Burger King. Although...you can't get waffle fries just anywhere :)

Good chicken sandwich and waffle fries. They aren't anywhere near where I live so I make a point to stop and get one when I see them in an airport.

On topic. What I like about CFA is that no matter what you buy or how you substitute it the price is always fair. A combo price is just the regular price of each individual item added up to equal the combo price. So if you want to buy a sandwich, fries and coke the price is the same whether you say sandwich, fries and a coke or number 1. No discounted pricing, everyone pays the same price. That is fairness.

Portions of the post that previously appeared in this space has been deleted. I would provide you with a reason why, but doing so would likely be against the TOS.

It is by far the best fast food restaurant. No doubt about it! The Christian motives behind it are another reason that it is so successful. It is a wonderful place for families to carry their children. Great atmosphere. Family friendly. Of course if you don't agree then there are other fast food places that you can "settle" for.

[QUOTE=Eastbay1K;10494456]I refuse to eat there... QUOTE]

For the same reasons Eastbay 1K stated, I do not typically eat at Chik-fil-A. My gay dollars are better spent elsewhere.

That said, I do sign up for free Chik-fil-A notices and coupons, and often search the web for coupons... The only thing better than my own personal boycott of this company is to use coupons which give me a free sandwich or something. I'd even ask for a complimentary cup of water with that. =)

Thumbs up to their tasty chicken!

If you eat at CFA just once or twice a month, it's not that hard to find coupons. Multiple times a week and the expense would add up.

If you live near ABE, you live near Lehigh Valley Mall, in which exists a Chic-Fil-A. Enjoy.

Kind of a fair weather fan here.

I like most of what their menu offers and the waffle fries are amazing but one thing I'd love to tell their owner: DON'T SOAK YOUR HAMBURGER PATTIES IN BUTTER! Wow is it ever so salty. So much sodium it's sickening.
