    I worked for Chick-fil-A for a total of 8 years, and I can definitely attest to it being fresh squeezed! It was the WORST job to have - literally cutting lemons in half and pushing them onto an electric juicer - we would get pulp ALL over our shirts! Also, I think the pickles go well w/ the sandwich because they actually marinate the chicken in pickle juice!

    • @davidluv4
      @davidluv4 Před 7 lety +34

      Also, fun fact: I always get extra CFA sauce, so I had saved up over 20 or so, and decided to mail some to my Army friends in Germany and also my missionary friends in Puerto Rico! They had had Chick-fil-A before, but they don't have them there.

NO ONE is this happy to be at work LMAOOO... i love chickfila but ive always wanted to know that lol. and bless your soul u r the real mvp cause i couldnt do it lol

    • @davidluv4
      @davidluv4 Před 6 lety +26

      haha Well, not exactly. It's a Christian-founded business, so they do try to emphasize "second mile service" aka going the extra mile for the customer. It's really the only place I've worked or been that they pretty much do anything and don't charge for it. There were plenty of people behind the scenes that didn't really have a good attitude, but that's why they're BEHIND the scenes. ;)

    Fast Food is not something I am in to, but if I go on a road trip I will remember the Spicy Chick Fil-A. Because Spice. The spice extends life. The Spice expands consciousness. The Spice is vital to space travel.

    I am from Northern Wisconsin. We don't have Chick Fil-A. But last month I went to Florida. So I had to go. We ordered a bunch of food because for me it was something I had to try. I told the girl that the cows in Wisconsin sent me all the way to Florida just to try their Chicken Sandwich. After completing the order and talking with the girl behind the counter she gave us the whole order for FREE. I couldn't believe it. That was great. The only problem was they wouldn't come back up North with me. Big Love For Chick Fil-A.

    I work at Chick-fil-A in a Maryland location and the salads are extremely popular and I like them myself they come with any kind of chicken you'd like rather that's grilled chicken or crispy chicken or no chicken at all I think you would enjoy the spicy south west salad or the market salad because it has amazing fresh berries. I love you videos. Also I would suggest avocado line ranch. (Sounds crazy but it's absolutely delicious)

      Chick-fil-A and Culver's have some serious customer service action going on and I've never been in a dirty store of either company. Impeccable cleanliness, customer service and outstanding food at a fair price from both of them. Both of them go out of their way to make things right if there is ever a mistake.

      Cristal Alston It'll definitely be less sweet since one way is mixing 2 sweets and the other is 1 sweet and 1 unsweet. The Lemonade is already so sweet and tart by itself tho that I think it just brings it down to normal.

    @colehenson7899 Před 6 lety

    Emmy, if you're reading this I heard the key to a good DIY Chick-fil-A recipe is to brine the chicken in dill pickle juice. Also, they use varying amounts of powdered sugar in the flour mixture for the breading. The sugar and dill are what gives their chicken its signature flavor. Love your videos by the way. 💖

    The Polynesian sauce is the best especially on the fries! I worked at Chick-fil-A for 8 years. The lemons are squeezed by the case every single day! The 100% all breast chicken is hand breaded every 7 minutes so it's always fresh. It's one of the highest qualities from quick service restaurants available!

    Chik-fil-a started out in the shopping malls back in the 80's before going to free standing restaurants....trust me, you crave the sandwiches and no matter how crowded they are, YOU WILL WAIT FOR YOUR FOOD !!!
    They are closed on sundays. I get mine with extra pickle and I use the "honey mustard" or the "chik-fil-a" house sauce.
    Fantastic salads now, try the southwest salad with chicken....yumm yummm

    Y'all she said right there in the beginning she was doing this so she could create an authentic copycat recipe! Emmy's $12 did not make any extreme difference in their profits, and as a gay Texan who has witnessed their branding chokehold/cult-like following in my state firsthand I can guarantee you that.
    Before you point your finger at someone else's unethical consumption under capitalism, count how many items of clothing you currently own that were likely made in sweatshops, and how many items in your fridge and pantry that were harvested by underpaid migrant workers in unsafe conditions.
    Like if you've ever bought a single item from Wal-Mart I don't want to hear about how horrible you think Emmy is for trying two sandwiches and a lemonade, lol.

      llama preach. Plus, boycotting has its downfalls: the first people who will get hit by it are the little guys, the minimum wage workers who are working their asses off for money. The CEO will barely feel a thing at this point while the workers will most likely lose their jobs because of low demand.

    • @jloubelle
      @jloubelle Před 6 lety +7

      This argument is silly. I am not single-handedly responsible for keeping everyone employed with my few consumer dollars. There are minimum wage workers busting their asses for ethical companies that I am proud to support, so I choose to use my limited consumer power to keep their jobs safe. Whether the CEO feels it or not, he does not deserve my money and he won't get any of it. If all who opposed his anti-gay agenda did the same, it would hurt him.

    • @GeneTonics
      @GeneTonics Před 6 lety +6

      No you're not single-handedly responsible, jloubelle. It is your choice to not buy that I'm not arguing with that. But facts are facts: you won't be hurting anybody but the workers. Your argument was if all who opposed his anti-gay agenda didn't buy from the company it would hurt him. I don't believe it will. He already won success for his company with having over 2k locations of his business. Losing a couple of customers in the future isn't going to change the fact he still had a very, very successful business that gave him more than enough money to support his future. But hey man, do what you feel comfortable doing. Not saying what you should and shouldn't do, just that boycotting has its downfalls.

    • @Table-Top
      @Table-Top Před 6 lety +9

      I don't believe that S. Truet Cathy is "anti-gay" in the sense that he "hates" gay people. Read Huffposts article by a gay activist who knows Truet,"Dan and Me: My Coming Out as a Friend of Dan Cathy and Chick-fil-A":
      www.huffingtonpost.com/shane-l-windmeyer/dan-cathy-chick-fil-a_b_2564379.html
      The problem is that gay activists have labelled as evil anyone who doesn't agree with them. There are some gay people who are not for gay marriage. Truet is a very decent guy who gives a ton to charity and is almost certainly a lot nicer than the people who label him a "hater and bigot".

    If Chik Fil-A refused to hire or serve gay people, then I'd get upset. The fact that the CEO believes contrary to what I believe isn't enough for me to boycott the franchise. How many times does anyone ask the personal politics of restaurant or grocery store owners? The chicken isn't homophobic, people; it's just chicken. I rarely eat fast food, but CFA is pretty decent. The employees are always friendly, and I do like their waffle fries.

      It isn't just about what the CEO believes. It's about him giving millions of dollars to anti-LGBT groups. I'm not going to give my money to a company that's going to funnel it to a group that hates me and people like me. I don't care what one person believes. I care about the harm they do because of that belief. It ain't just chicken.

    • @ZehnWaters
      @ZehnWaters Před 6 lety +15

      The company doesn't give the money there. The CEO does with his private money and it's about three times removed from the organizations he actually donates to. And if you're worried about that, then don't buy gas, don't support half the things you do because at some point they all tie back into the middle-east.

      augustandjune so I work at Chick-fil-A and my sister is openly gay and everyone knows it as well as my manager is gay like drag queen and my owner and operator is okay with it. Chick-fil-A as a franchise doesn't care what race or gender or relationship is we just want people to enjoy our food and feel comfortable when they come to our restaurant. My whole family works and breaths Chick-fil-A. Just cause one person says it doesn't mean everyone goes off of it. We are not all owned by corporate we are mostly a franchise so each is run and hires differently. I have worked personally for 2 years at Chick-fil-A and my aunt is a manager at another one and every few days we get people who yell at us for what one person has said but yet many of our team members are openly gay and no one cares people are people it's a job and that's that.

    Right now for summer they have a watermelon mint flavoring you can get in the lemonade or tea. I recommend a unsweetened tea with 2 pumps of flavoring. It's very refreshing and not too sweet.

      If you support Chick-fil-a, then you indirectly support conversion therapy for LGBTQ+ youth. Ask yourself if fried chicken (whether or not tasty and convenient) holds a higher value to you than the physical, emotional, and mental health of LGBTQ+ youth. If you answer yes to both statements, then you actively contribute to the dystopia and moral collapse America is quickly approaching (ie profit and materialism over humanity).
      So yes, food (and corporate America) is political.

    I used to really love their food and admittedly have been a couple times since all the controversy. I grew up in a small town and what really upset me was that a few days after the CEO made anti gay comments they had chick-fil-a appreciation day which had cars in line all the way out onto the highway. Thousands of customers that day and for weeks to follow. People were supporting his comments because they felt the same way. I remember thinking the whole week, "do people really hate us that much?" I did read recently that they stopped donating to antigay groups. I don't know if that's true or not, but it's too little too late for me. I have a hard time supporting a company that I feel is (or was) so against me having basic human rights.
    Anyway, none of this is your fault or problem. Just felt like sharing. I have nothing but love for you and your videos as always. I don't think you have a prejudiced bone in your body!

      Registered Hoe what did u expect from the highly religious ceo? Just because of the beliefs of the CEO doesn't mean the whole company and the people working for them feel the same way. The one here in my town even has gay employees working there so what does that say? The CEO is highly religious and truly believes in his bible so his views on being gay totally makes sense. Everyone always blames the people for the way they think but it's because of the bible why people have these beliefs. So basically your upset with their religion. Just how it is!

      For what it's worth, Chik Fil-A in Orlando did open on a Sunday and donated food to people waiting to give blood and law enforcement officers after the shooting at Pulse night club last year, and being closed on Sunday has been a long standing policy of theirs. They were one of several businesses that did so.
