In the early days of Facebook, I once posted Archived Message Posted by Sounder on May 16, 2025, 13:38:57, in reply to "And Chick-fil-A" "There are many things I will do in the name of gay rights. Giving up Chick-Fil-A is not one of those things." Previous Message Wait, no... LOVE Chick-fil-A too much to boycott Previous Message except for Hobby Lobby, fuck those guys. Previous Message Previous Message Previous Message Some places just take a crappy waffle, toss some Sysco chicken fingers on top and drown the whole thing in maple syrup. That's meh. Other places really focus on how the waffle taste and texture works alongside the flavor of the chicken tenders and also maybe something other than just maple syrup. Previous Message I love a good basic breakfast or omelet and tend to never go outside my comfort range. My son says there amazing, and I should try Previous Message Slightly overcooked on the bottom of the yolk.
