Grilled nuggies and side salad are legit for a diet tho.

Do you live under a rock?

CFA canceled donations in 2019 to appease left wing activists.

While cities burned, Dan Cathy groveled on live TV for the rioters.

They also have a DEI director. Stop giving money to people who hate you.

I’ve read it’s full of chemicals and not healthy. But it’s still the best option for fast food out there. At least it’s chicken and they get the order correct.

And yet NPCs continue to line up for it thinking it’s somehow “based.”



What about "normies?"

What do "normies" and "chads" think?

Does getting a fruit cup make it better?

Given a choice between a grilled chicken sandwich from Chik Fila and a greasy burger from another fast food place, I think it goes without saying that the chicken sandwich is a healthier choice. Those who need to watch calories should consider the side salad instead of fries.

How can they afford it?

It's $28 when me and my 2 kids get lunch there. It was over $50 when all four of us got CFA, it was the night after my son had to weigh in for a wrestling tournament, so he had to get 2 grilled chicken sandwiches with his combo meal.

It’d be pretty easy to eat healthy there every day.

I’m sure that’s not what these two ladies are doing, but it wouldn’t be hard.

I think 2 of my old coworkers gained 20 pounds each when Chipotle first became a thing. It was the healthy option for lunch lol.

50 ingredient sandwiches


quote:

It is 55, and 33 of those ingredients are in the bun and pickles. Plus, salt is counted four times in the "ingredient list" because it is used in the chicken, breading, bun, and pickle. Water is listed multiple times, as is sugar, and soybean oil, natural flavor, spices, etc. So, how many ingredients are actually used? I didn't do the exact math, but it is actually way less than 55.


I went ahead and did the figuring on this. It comes as no surprise that the graphic/story that stirred this up is more or less bullshite.

They say that the sandwhich has 55 ingredients. Yet, they break the sandwich down into: Chicken, Chicken coating, Bun, Bun oil, and Pickles. They list ingredients for each part. Salt is listed four times, water three, and sugar three. Three different kinds of wheat flour are used, but there isn't much difference between the three. Paprika is counted twice because it used in the chicken and for "color" in the chicken coating. They list "Spice" once and "Spices" again. The pickles account for seven ingredients, including both instances of colors/dyes. Here's a helpful note, leave off the pickles. Or, understand that if you make homemade pickles and use "pickling salt" you will be using most of the same ingredients at home.

If you're being honest and not trying to maximize clicks you'd say that there are 37 ingredients, or 30 if you request no pickles. Still a lot, but nowhere as shocking and likely comparable to most any other fastfood.

I don't think anyone thinks it's healthy.

When I was a kid back in the 1900s, Chick-Fil-A was fine. It was another fast food restaurant. I believe its surge in popularity has more to do with the other major fast food chains horrific drop in quality and service
