This weekend's fast food

[mtbc]

Today I tried out Chick-fil-A. I certainly don't plan to make a habit of it while they are not more obviously inclusive but I had never been and was curious about the good reviews. It isn't amazing but their signature breaded chicken sandwich came with a hearty portion of moist, tasty chicken and their own sauce tastes good. The drive-through was busy but well-organized, and the staff were efficient and friendly, so it is a shame that I do not yet trust them to direct profits ethically.

I have eaten Chick-fil-A once, and it was when my very conservative sister bought it. I thought it was fine, but I don't eat fast food, so it's easy for me to NOT buy it.

Chicken sandwiches aren't really my thing anyway so that makes it easier for me!

I will not do business with them. Not under the current ownership and their attitudes towards LGBTQ+ people. I want them gone from Canada.

A perfectly reasonable position.

(And I want Tim Horton's to make it further south into the US!)

[dewline]

It's my understanding that the people running the Tim's brand are working on that project.

That looks like a useful website.

I've never been to a Chick-A-Fil, nor had I heard of them. They aren't prevalent in NYC. Most franchises aren't - NYC tends to be rather food franchise free for the most part. Outlying areas, yes. Which is a good thing - because I can't eat food from these places without getting ill.
They have additives and gluten galore. I can do places like Chipolte, but not quite the same thing.

Did barbecue short ribs on the broiler tonight with wax yellow beans. Was good.

Aha, I do like the bowls at Chipotle but, yes, not quite the same.

I have some boneless ribs in the freezer. Picked them up on discount, will figure out what to do with them in due course. Lunch today is chicken omelette with baked potato, then I have carrots and zucchini coming up early next week.
