I don’t get the love for their food. It’s fine but not good and is basic fast food. Popeyes is much better.

Why do I crave them on Sundays? Their chicken sandwich is like crack.

I’ve long boycotted them due to the fact that they close on Sundays. Don’t impose your religious beliefs on my fast food!

I’ve never had it, and I probably never will. I don’t eat a lot of fast food, and I do personally care about my money going to (imo) hateful organizations.
I’m a millennial, not genZ if that matters lol.

I do boycot them, but I also think their food is meh. I don't understand the love for it.

My husband and I (we mid 50s in age) can go there for a quick lunch on a weekday or a weekend when our teen has other things to do. The employees swing by asking if we need a drink top up, more condiments, etc., which makes it feel a bit like an actual sit-down restaurant with servers. We feel pampered, catered to, and the service is always excellent. The employees are always very nice. I have yet to leave a Chick-Fil-A and think "well, that was horrible."

I am not surprised at all to see Chick-Fil-A top the list.


Pampered? Lol

CFA calmed down their anti-gay stance a while a ago. Even my gay coworker says their "hate chicken" is delicious.

It's fried chicken that is consistently good. It's not that deep, not worth a think piece.

Don't think most kids are activists. Neither were most boomers in the 60s.
