Finally tried Chick-fil-A. Both sandwiches were only meat and bread. đ No mayo, ketchup, or mustard. We had trouble choking it down.
wtf is wrong with these people?
hereâs their online menu. No sauce or condiments at all. Are these people insane? Whereâs the damn mayo?
Everyone I know raves about this chain. Why isnât there anything but meat & bread?

Itâs available in the store. Itâs also one of the reasons theyâre the healthiest fast food Shaun out there. Their spicy chicken is sweet.

You can ask for any sauce and theyâll give it to you, you know. FWIW I always get nuggets at Chik-Fil-A (with waffle fries and cole slaw!).

We made the mistake of ordering the standard Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich.
meat & bread only. no lettuce, tomato, no mayo no nothing.
We were really pissed when we got home with that shit in the bag.
I checked the website and thatâs what comes with a Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich. meat & bread. gross

We have no Chic-Fil-A restaraunts out here, but I was given a sandwich by my store (a reward for coming in on a bad weather day) that was exactly the same down to the pickle chips and lack of condiments. Theyâve been pretty popular but I canât understand why. I was having trouble just swallowing the thing and wishing the entire time for a packet of mayo. I canât really understand how people could find them tasty without any sauce on top or veggies in it.

Iâm glad they donât put that shit called mayonnaise on it. Seriously, all the mayo lovers need to chill. You can always put it on, but once itâs on, you canât take that disgusting crap off.

The point is with no sauce at all, the Chick-fil-A sandwich is painfully dry. Do you eat them with no sauce at all?

Pray that you get a decent sandwich, I would guess.đ

Chick-fil-A is currently being boycotted by many members of the gay community for their corporate support (with money and free catering) of groups that seek to ârestore traditional marriageâ (i.e. repeal gay marriage laws in place where itâs passed). This may be an effective boycott for a change as weâre a group that knows how to get the meat down without gagging.

I canât in good conscience keep paying for Chik Fil A, because of what Sampiro said, but I love it. I like it with mayo (self-applied. Iâm not handicapped.) and the breaded chicken breast soaked in hot sauce a la [Nashville hot chicken](http://maps.google.com/maps/place?oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=nashville+hot+chicken&fb=1&gl=us&hq=hot+chicken&hnear=Nashville,+TN&cid=3706617377717960065).
Anyone who doesnât think Chik Fil A is the food of the gods ought toâŚought toâŚ
âŚwell, give it another try (provided they stop being homophobic morons).

Iâve eaten hundreds of Chick-fil-A sandwiches, all without pickels. The chicken is juicy enough on itâs own. Iâve never thought of it as a particularly dry sandwich.

I always ask for a packet of mayo if I order one of their sandwiches. I love their Polynesian sauce for the nuggets.

That probably wonât happen until the founder is dead. When they start being open on Sundays theyâll probably stop being homophobic jerks.

Yâall donât eat chicks anyway, though.
Chick-fil-a was my default mall food on my rare excursions to the mall, until I read about their goddamn homophobic nonprofit. They make a pretty fine chicken sandwich. Of course, I always add mayo.

While I think the proper condiment can make most fast foods taste better, it blows my mind someone is so picky about food they say they can âbarely choke it downâ when a sandwich doesnât have mayo or some other condiment.

For about 2 years I went to morning and night classes at a school that had a Chic-Fil-A in it. So I would eat breakfast there before my first morning class, then lunch after my last morning class, and then come back and eat dinner there before my night class. Every. Day. And I didnât particularly like it to begin with; it was just ridiculously convenient and I had no concern for my health in those years. I canât even look at a Chic-Fil-A now. Plus fuck them for supporting a hate group, if that is indeed the whole story.
