Title: Dress like a cow, get free chicken at Chick-fil-A
Post by: bijou on July 06, 2009, 04:27:58 PM: (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c630a53ef011571cbb682970b-800wi)

How far are people willing to go for a free meal?

Find out Friday at one of Chick-fil-A's more than 1,400 restaurants. In honor of the company's fifth annual Cow Appreciation Day, any customer who dresses like a bovine gets a free combo meal. But tasteful furry ears or a cowbell necklace alone won't cut it -- the promotion only applies to those decked out head to toe in cow garb. Partial cow attire only will earn customers a free entree.

The Atlanta-based chicken chain's soft spot for cows can be traced directly to its marketing campaign that features cows wearing "Eat Mor Chikin" signs.

I hope this is less of a shambles than the Oprah affair

We just got one here in Fresno and the light shone though the clouds. God must be pleased with us. Anyways, Chick-fil-a is the crack of chicken sanwiches. You can never go back to McChicken or any other inferior chicken sandwich after a Chick-fil-a chicken sandwich.

Now I just wish I had a cow costume. :(

Post by: mamacags on July 06, 2009, 06:37:59 PM: I haven't been able to even look at any other chicken sandwich after Chick-fil-a. It tastes so fresh and not all rubbery and nasty. They also have milkshakes and the best ice tea I have ever had in a place other than my kitchen.

There have been lots of threads about Chick-fil-A at the DUmp. They hate the place. It's a privately-held company, and the owner is very openly and enthusiastically Christian. Probably the only fast food chain in the world that's closed on Sundays. DUmmies fume over every little hint of Christianity about the restaurant and its management policies.

They hate Wal-mart more, because it's bigger. But when the DUmmies are faced with making a decision on which to hate more, a non-union company or a Christian company, it's a really tough choice.

Chik-Fil-A is heaven on earth. McDonald's Southern Chicken Sandwich is a shameless rip-off from the original, and they sell these awesome waffle fries. Their chicken nuggets make McDonald's nuggets look like dog turds in comparison.

I am not super impressed with the waffle fries.:( McDonald's still rules in the fries department.

So long as you can eat them within the first 5 minutes of them leaving the fryer. After that, they pretty much taste like everything else McD's makes - dogshit.

Gimme Burger King, real beef Whoppers and fries that are good at temperatures below scalding, "boiling oil" hot.

Or Chik-fil-a.

That is just wrong. McDonald's fries are okay, but and Chik-Fil-A is so much better. Where can you get fast food french fries that still have the skin on them (except for Jack In The Box)?

True. I just like my fries a little more salty.

Don't forget to leave the engine running, with the a/c blasting and the windows down while you eat.

Well, you DO have Kings Canyon/Sequoia Nat. Park somewhat nearby. Good fishing/caving.
