In his first-ever broadcast interview with Today, CEO Andrew Cathy dodged questions on Chick-fil-A's longstanding homophobic views. "I think that everybody that would be willing to walk in the door, they’ll see that they're welcome to come eat with us," he said about the company's position on equal rights.

I grew up eating CFA, I like their food. There's nostalgia but also I just like it. But I stopped going after I heard about their homophobia and will absolutely not go back until I have confirmation that they have changed their ways. Fuck them, fuck their Xian BS, fuck them twice on Sunday.

I am told it's chicken cooked in pickle brine?

[–] Cellery@quokk.au 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

salt-and-sugar brine, not pickle juice.

Omg that makes it even more funny that white people flock to it. It’s like they’ve never brined their chicken with a standard brine in their lives

Tbf, it’s very multicultural. Not the company values? But the food. There was one by my at my old place and it was all brown all the time. (I also lived in an area with a visible Latino population.)

I was being humorous

Racism isn’t humorous unless you’re a racist.

You’re a fucking tool

[–] Cellery@quokk.au 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For whom?

[–] Amuro_eat@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The center-right it would seem

[–] Cellery@quokk.au 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

you lack vision or brain power. You choose.

You lack arguing in good faith if these have been your responses. You don’t give a fuck about racism if you’re turning to that to win a petty argument. You’re just full of shit like the little liberal you are.

[–] Cellery@quokk.au 1 points 1 week ago

Just like the little liberal you are.

Soaked in brine prior to cooking.
