I mean, if you don't mind/know about the bigotry, it's pretty fuckin good chicken. And their waffle fries are good too. Haven't eaten there in years and I do miss the food. But it's still a hard no for me.

    it’s pretty fuckin good chicken.

    But is it "wait a fucking half hour or more in a god damned drive through" good? Fuck no it isn't.

    Evidently some people value their time less or the chicken more.

    I've only been to CFA a few times, but even with lines wrapped around the building I don't think I've ever waited longer than 10 minutes. Burger King is regularly that long of a wait and I was actually stuck waiting 20 minutes at McDonald's last week (they asked me to pull up and pretty sure they forgot about me.) I try to plan ahead and not rely so much on fast food, but as much time as I spend in my car driving for work, I'm usually stopping somewhere 1-2x a week.

    They usually have double lanes and are taking orders throughout the line as shown above, the lines always long but seldom slow.

    That said fuck bigot-chicken

    I've never waited more than 16ish min for food, and that is an extremely long wait for them. It is always super fast, so idk where you are pulling this 1 hour long wait time stuff from unless you are talking about their opening weekends for new ones.

    Condemning organizations which support hate speech and eroding of civil rights is too 'political', we better just not talk about it.

    We found the perfect loophole guys! Instead of the company itself funding hatred and trying to get rid of equal rights we'll just have the owner, the one who profits from the company do it himself! Genius! The company is family owned. If you eat there you are directly funding these sociopathic billionaires.

    This logic only works if you pretend that there aren't other nearby restaurants needing service workers if business slows down at bigot chicken.

    Nooooooo! If they haven't personally wronged you then you're just woke antifa that doesn't deserve good Jesus chicken. These fuckin people, man. The common thread is that they don't give a fuck about anybody else

    It’s chicken. It isn’t political

    THE COMPANY MADE IT POLITICAL. Is it easier to understand who brought politics into the dinner conversation if it's in larger letters?

    While the product, being inanimate isn't involved in the decision. You are just making excuses.

    It sounds like you are making excuses for "right to work" corpos owning their workers. Wage slaves are wage slaves and the further we remove the predatory practices the better. It is funny you want to seem holier than ### thou when you are really nothing but another clueless libertarian.

    Why are you arguing when you know you don't know what they're talking about, and a quick Google search can verify what they're saying? Or are you just playing stupid?

    Well, I can see that someone who moves the goalposts this often isn't worth arguing with. Maybe just state the point you really want to make the first time instead of being sheepish about it?

    Also, "slacktivism"? Man, I can't take you seriously. How hilarious would it be though— you're so quick to assume people don't do anything but argue on the internet, someone's gonna show you up someday. You honestly sound a whole lot like you're projecting about "slacktivism". But oh well, onto reading the next Lemmy post.

    Is the chicken even that good?, no way they don't come from a CAFO. Stressed out chicken meat taste like water to me.

    Idk what the hell everyone else is talking about. Their chicken has always been great. When i get chicken from other fast food places its always hit or miss, and even on their best day, it's as good as chick fil a on one of their average days. Hell, I've never had a dry or overcooked or small portion of chicken from them, and they always pay their workers well.
