God has some great tweets of the RW Chik fil a cauliflower flip out 😆🤡

https://god.dailydot.com/chick-fil-a-meatless-sandwich/

The mental gymnastics a person has to do to genuinely be angry about a sandwich they do not have to eat sound exhausting. Whatever will they do when they find out Chick-fil-A has already been selling fruit and salad for years? Somebody get Fox News on the line, quick!

that giving this sandwich a shot might be a good idea.

No business (especially the bigots at Chick-fil-A) would go "woke" unless there was some money in it for them.

Just like conservative outrage. Conservatives know full-well that they have no shot at raising money or winning elections unless they give the cult-ist base something to be angry about.

The concept of cauliflower chicken sounds good, if you consider it's served with pickles, Mayo and other stuff.
Catholics can now eat there on lenten Fridays. I've never eaten there and have no idea if they serve fish.

you'd still have to make this sandwich at home. There's dairy and eggs in the breading and bun. Also mayo. But good on them, its a step in the right direction. It does look good. Too bad its being served by a company that is using its profits to fund homophobic initiatives.

I am vegetarian now but used to love their sandwiches when I was in high school (back when they would stand outside their mall stores handing out free samples). But even as exciting as having an option to eat at a CFA again with a non-meat sandwich, their foam cups are an abomination to the environment. So much for being stewards, as good Christian’s were commanded to be.
