I tried Chick-Fil-A last month, when they had the chicken tenders giveaway. They have a 'diet' lemonade that is made with splenda - it was the best lemonade I have ever had.

When CFA introduced milkshakes a year or so ago, I scored some free coupons for same. Extremely good chocolate milkshake. A very tasty sandwich, as well.

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.

Chick-Fil-A serves hamburgers?

For years they've always seemed to be closed on the rare occasions I would eat fast food.

A colleague insisted on a recent trip, so I went along for curiosity's sake.

Unremarkable.

Only at the original Chic Fil A dwarf house but this poster was referring to the chicken sandwich buns as hamburger buns. That is the generic name for the buns. Also the best thing at a chic fil a is an old fashioned fried apple pie. It can be found at the Dwarf Houses. :) mmmmmtasty

I love their coffee caramel milkshake! Very yummy!

The only CFA near us, other than the one at the mall, is by Wegman's. Needless to say, I find myself in Wegman's anytime I'm craving CFA--kill two birds with one stone. :)

Shoot, I prefer that diet lemonade to the regular. I'll blame my GA-born ex for that one...

Good fries. Good nuggets. Good soup. Good cole slaw. Good salads.

I find the sandwiches bland but they improve with the addition of honey mustard sauce (which I like on their fries too). I like the diet lemonade, but have to add 2-3 packets of Splenda to cut down the pucker.

I think the ice dream is nasty and dry, but I like the lemon pie.

I could care less about their politics or religion. At least they're open about it.

The only thing that saves me when traveling through miserable ATL. ^

Well as for the " i refuse to eat there...." based on beliefs, I would usually think that's dumb, but today i was at starbucks and they had this propoganda flyer about hot election topics, this issue was about gas prices and record oil profits. Of course, no mention of profit margins, demand for oil etc etc. So I will not be drinking at starbucks anytime soon.

Back on topic - Chick Fil A food is pretty good. Fries in peanut oil.

"Chicken burger" sounded a little weird

I had my first about 13 years ago and thought all of the hype was crazy, until I ate one of their sandwiches. That they give money to Christian organizations and not left-wing whackjob charities is ok in my book.

I can't believe we made it to the third page before someone mentioned the milkshakes. Oreo....Milkshake...mmm...drool...

I've always thought that this was somewhat weird nomenclature - I always picture patties made of ground chicken (yuck!) - but many chains use the "chicken burger" name for their grilled chicken sandwiches.

My 18yo is a big fan, the few times she has dragged me along, I really haven't been too impressed, I still like Wendy's
chix sandwich better.
