Being from California, I have no idea what Chik-Fil-A is. However, I really like the Southern style chicken. The bun still blows cuz hey, it's McDonald's. But the chicken was really juicy and it got everywhere. Ah! I was super excited that I got a coupon for a free sandwich with my Mervyn's bill. Yes!

random hijack
I also got a coupon mailed to my house for a free sandwich. one for the breakfast one on a biscuit and the lunch one on a bun. now my family calls me McFatty because i get fast food coupons in the mail addressed to me. They said it would be one thing if it came to "Resident of [tld221's address]" but the fact that it came to "tld221 at tld221's address" was the deciding factor.
I actually dont know HOW i got the coupons. I never signed up for it. Or maybe i did, inadvertantly through some website or by filling some random questionnaire.

They have it in SoFla. The bun is a bit too buttery, the chicken tastes decent, I would not compare it to Chik-Fil-A because I hate anything fried at Chik-Fil-A (the seasonings turn me off and reminds me of a hot dog which I hate). The grilled stuff at CFA is okay for me though.
What I don't get is why a buttered bun and some pickles on a juicy piece of chicken constitutes a "southern" style. I guess it's just the style of the chicken more or less. They really could have put some sauce on it or something. If KFC was making this it'd taste a bit better.

KFC does make one, it is called the Colonel's Cravin Filet Sandwich, although it still doesnt compare to CFA

Really? They have them all over the place in LA and Orange Counties.
I've tried the "southern-style" breakfast biscuit from McDonald's and thought it was rather dry tasting.

I've tried to cut out HFCS, and it's hard...it's in SO MUCH STUFF...even bread. I just read the labels really carefully. Same goes for partially hydrogenated whatever-kind-of-oil.

They must be in only certain parts of LA and Orange County, because I lived down there for four years and never came across one. I visit down there frequently, too, and still nothin'. But maybe that's because I'm always looking for In-N-Out.

When I was around 13 I was diagnosed with a corn allergy. So i couldn't eat anything with corn syrup, corn meal, etc. You don't know how many things have corn syrup or corn meal until you can't eat them! lol
