How do you feel about it?

Lay it on the line about the product Chick Fil A puts out.

I don't allow my kids to eat at McDonald's. I told my oldest as soon as she could understand and it's never been and issue. They use such an absurd amount of chemical that there's no way I'd let my child eat their food.

This is our policy, too. My ****ing in-laws think we're being silly so they feed them that shit every time they watch the boys.

We don't have that in Wisconsin, but as a kid in North Carolina, I love it. Especially their waffle fries.

My sister when she goes back to NC goes every time.

We have Culvers up here.

Yeah, people are weird about McDonald's and act as if some sort of torture or depravation if you're not training your kid to eat chemically filled crap.

We don't allow soda, either. Instead of candy, we serve strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. We make homemade Popsicles and while we allow ice cream, that's about the extent of the pre made sugary products.

Kids don't need 50 grams of sugar and 50 grams of fat per day. Hell, adults don't need it, either.

That, and the queso, is what Pancheros won me over with.

I always marvel at In N Outs consistency. Why can't everyone go off of that model, I wonder.

All the "Chipotle Bashers"... have you tried the new Free Birds? I actually like Free Birds better. I think it tastes tons better and they have twice the ingredient options!

Hear you. We allow the very occasional McD if it's a gathering after school or as a treat. To each their own.

So far, the parents at the preschool my oldest attends have the same policy, so it's never been an issue. But, she starts kinder at a Charter at the end of the month, so that may change.

I'm okay with the occasional Wendy's, Carl's, Jack in the Box and Chik-Fil-A chicken nuggets, as they use real chicken without all of the preservatives.

But McNuggets don't even look like chicken.

I wouldn't eat a mcnugget if you paid me. You'll experience school gatherings, luckily most now offer baked chicken and fruit cup options.

Same shit. Different ingredients.

I like Chipotle's meat options better than Freebirds.
