      The chicken is half decent but like, I just kind of hate them even more than I hate other fast food restaurants because of their politics. I know there are no virtuous corporate overlords but the closed on Sunday thing is really fucking pretentious.

        New York State gave them a contract to be in every rest stop on our main highway. I was opposed on moral grounds initially, but when I found out about the Sunday thing, I was flabbergasted at how boneheaded a move it was. Literally travelers can’t get food on the highway one day per week.

          There’s a chain called Pollo campero and they have this campero sauce and it’s so good. Better than Chick fil a sauce, and I like their chicken more too. Chick fil a has super soft chicken that toothless people can eat it with ease, and I don’t like that type of chicken.

            Sweet Baby Ray’s isn’t my favorite sauce out there but it’s pretty damn good for a sweet, tomato based sauce. Like, to the point where there are a significant number of better commercial sauces (and a hell of a lot of worse sauces, let’s be honest) what use it as the base for their recipes.

            I’m not going to relegate it to furniture like KC Masterpiece or some garbage like that.

        Not who you asked but the restaurant makes great food and has awesome service. Best chicken sandwich in the fast food world. They have waffle fries and good lemonade.

        That about ends that. The reason a lot of people boycott them is because they have donated to anti-LGBT+ causes (conversation therapy) and other hate fueled political agendas that people don’t like.

        I think The Good Place said it best:

        Eleanor: Yeah, there are booby traps everywhere. Like, there’s this chicken sandwich that if you eat it, it means you hate gay people. And it’s delicious.

        Judge: It is. It is so good.
