> Name a fast food chain besides popeyes that can pull off a better spicy chicken sandwich.

shrug... every other chain that offers one? I guess this is all subjective, but I don't taste any quality difference between Chick-fil-A and other fast food chain chicken sandwiches. It seems like hype to me.

Chic fil a offers actual chicken cuts. The nuggets and tenders are actually ripped pieces of breasts, the sandwiches are actual filets that are seasoned and breaded in the store the day you ordered it.

You go to a wendys or a mcdonalds and order a dozen nuggets, you will see they come in exactly 4 shapes—ground whatever parts of chicken pressed into a mold of one of 4 randomly chosen shapes, breaded and flash frozen at a factory, and flash fried in store. Taste is subjective of course, but the quality of meat difference here is actually pretty objective.
