Better Than Chick-Fil-A: 5 Fried Chicken Sandwiches
It was a sight last September: People camped out along the sidewalk on the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue on a chilly morning, many playing board games while snuggled in sleeping bags, all in the name of fried chicken. Yes, Chick-fil-A, the Southern fast-food chain known for its pickle-topped chicken sandwiches and waffle fries, opened its new Hollywood location, promising free sandwiches for a year to the first 100 customers. The place was packed from the get go, and the lines haven’t stopped since.
But not everyone is a devoted fan. Controversy over whether the company funds anti-gay organizations has some chicken lovers in a moral battle between heart, mind and palate. We’re here to help. If you just can’t stomach the chicken chain, we’ve found five fried chicken sandwich alternatives — even better than Chick-fil-A — to try around L.A.
There is no whether in this matter. They financially and socially support anti-gay and harmful “curative” “ex-gay” organizations. Full stop.
I have not been to the LA Chick-fil-A (or any other location) and I will not be going there as long at the Chick-fil-A supports anti gay organizations. If you believe in equality and you eat at Chick-fil-A, you need to re-examine your position because your opinion carries less weight when your money is supporting discrimination.
