I use to love BK but the local franchise is absolutely horrible. I won’t go to BK regardless of any virtue signaling. My choice is because of the type of employees employed at our local BK franchise. The attitude of their employees makes employees at McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Taco Bell, Popeye’s, and KFC seem like 4 star service.

My local BK was so horrible, I had to send a message to their home site customer service. Haven't set foot back there since.

Our local Chick-Fil-A is outstanding.

Now another reason to continue on.

Don't expect much.
I recently tried Burger King's sad excuse for a Chicken sandwich and it was sorely lacking to put it nicely.
I used to enjoy the occasional Whopper but I'm not so sure I'll ever go back now that they're playing these childish games.

Chick-fil-a is a bit of a drive from me but I think I'll go there out of spite at this point.

Well, score one for Chick-fil-A then. Their chicken sandwiches are vastly to superior to Burger King's and they aren't prejudiced.

Hence the overwhelming popularity of Chick-fil-A

Burger King didnt attack CHick Fil a for its beliefs, they simply said they will donate to an organization that helps gay people.

Is this not what yall claimed to actually support ????

IDK, this argument only works if you indeed hold Chick Fil a to the same standard, which yall dont.

Most of these woke theoretical loudmouths will lack the rugged individualism necessary to survive.
Thats a horrible argument to make.

people dont buy chick fil a because they are starving, they buy it because it tastes good to many of them.

I think the chicken sandwich is decent, but it isnt the hype yall make it to be. honestly, I think them getting the food out to you as fast as they do is why people love it so much.

where I live, we have a fast food Restaurant call foosackly's that does the same.

I’m not big on boycotts, but I was kind of thinking of a Whopper with cheese today, but after reading this, I’ll pass. Well, just counting me, they lost about $10.00 from me today since I’m not buying a meal from them today or tomorrow.
