It's about time and a good start.
Sorry Chick-Fuk-U, you can’t put that toothpaste back in the tube. Obvious desperate PR stunt is obvious.
Agree. They now just fly under the radar, IMO.
There is plenty of good chicken out there, no reason to eat theirs...and they Started the hate groups, so the fact that they "no longer donate" because the groups are now self-supporting, sadly, means you should avoid this place forever!
Next step: Hire a team of Jews and Atheists to staff their restaurants on Sundays.
LOL.
That would be amazing!
If they follow through, good. Focusing on feeding hungry people and helping
the homeless is something more corporations need to be doing. Not terribly excited about whatever they may mean by "education". They're still privately-owned, and
entrenched in christianity. We shall see how that manifests.
Personally, I think it's nothing more than acquiescing to public pressure, and a
desire to keep profits up.
Having to close their London location might have been the wake-up call their management didn't want, but had no choice but to acknowledge.
I also see this as possibly coming back to bite them with their religutard customers.
Although, as long as they stay closed on Sundays, it might keep them mollified.
I'll still not patronize that corporation.
I don't like their food, and I detest Dan Cathy.
I saw. Good, and yet, I'm not going back. Their damage and attitudes live on.
Don't trust those lying motherfuckers!
Can I add to your statement - lying, hypocritical motherfuckers.
Good start. Maybe a sign of a weakening of christian rebidism (my word). Still I won't be going there.
It's encouraging that protests may have an impact.
Trust but verify. I have my doubts.
Exactly.
We have the only Chic fil a restuarant in the UK in the small town of Aviemore near where I live since the one in London was closed after demonstrations by LGBTQ recently.
I don't think I will be giving them any custom though
There's actually one in Reading, Berkshire. That restaurant will be closing soon as well, probably due to demonstrations. It's in the Oracle shopping centre. There's only three items on the menu. Burgers, nuggets and the fries. Plus drinks too.
I've always thought of Chick-Fil-A as a "south" thing, so imagine my surprise when one opened up in NYC early in 2018.
Even more surprising is that they have been super successful here. Go figure.
But they're not ruling it out completely... [vice.com]
