It says you can try it in the morning on a biscuit and for lunch or dinner as a regular sandwich, must buy a drink to get it free.

wow thats different than the one they sent me! mine just made it look like only biscuits in the morning thnks

I wonder how long the lines will be for this...I have been planning on going to get this at least once Thurs.

 

I've had this sandwich two times. It's soo much smaller than Chick Fil As for the same price. One time the sandwich wasn't great (meat was tinier than a regular cheeseburger), the other time it was super juicy. (but still a bit small, just not AS small).

I love Chick Fil... thye just opened here about 5 weeks ago.. they were handing out free sandwiches for 3 days....

I tried the southern chicken today for lunch and I really liked it. They had the signs up at the drive-thru advertising the free biscuit for breakfast and the free sandwich for lunch.

I like Chic Fil A, but they fry theirs in Peanut oil, My kids are highly allergic to peanuts.

I received a coupon for both sandwiches free in my credit card bill this month. Only thing they have ever given me free. :) I tried the breakfast one and it was very good.

[davephillyj]

Today's the big day! Free food!

Does the note : "Limit one per person or per drink order" mean to get two, you need to do two different orders? Or just get two different drinks?

[AndreaInNC]

I have no clue, I just know that I will give my 2 kids each money and we all will order separately to avoid any flack from the cashier.

well had breakfast and lunch and it only cost me 2bucks and they was ok the breakfast was better then lunch.

[davephillyj]

I didn't like the way the batter tasted. Just me though. They did just pull it up out of the grease so it was fresh!

[yellowjeepster]

Mcdonalds by my house is doing it tomorrow as well. I got the b'fast sandwich but thought it was very bland. Will try the lunch one this evening.

went today at lunch it was bananas!!!

I got one at lunch time and it was okay...not a long line at all. I was with a co-worker and asked how many I could get (other people back at the office wanted them too but I made no promises) and they said as many med or large drinks you purchase you will get one. Woohoo got 4.

Are you sure? My nephew is deathly allergic to peanuts and this was one place his DR recommended because they don't use peanut oil. My son also has a peanut allergy and he eats chicken nuggets from Chik Fil A with no problem.

We stopped by for lunch--actually at our Mcd's there were no signs or anything. I got three on one order (I was only going to get two, but the cashier told me I could have another one since I had also bought a meal w/ a drink). I thought it was good--odd w/ pickles on it, but that's just a personal preference. It wasn't busy there at all most people didn't seem to know about it. I told my husband to go there for lunch as well--he was pretty happy at spending $2 and some change for lunch :)

[erinplus3]

We had these for dinner tonight and I really liked mine, especially loved the pickles. The kids tossed the bun and just ate the chicken, said it tasted like pickles.

 

I will probably buy it when I end up having to go to McDonalds every once in a while. I can't stand anything else there, so this is a good find for me. :)

CFA most definately uses peanut oil. Says so right on their website. My son's allergist mentioned CFA as a special note when we found out our son was allergic to peanuts. Her statement was that they use a refined peanut oil which would have minimal peanut protien in it. That said, I know other peanut allergic kids who have had reactions from the peanut oil at CFA. YMMV.

 

Our DS does not eat at CFA. And boy, do I miss it!

I had the breakfast one.. It was so freakn dry. One thing I will never get again. Wishing I would have gone at lunch and brought it back to work (KFC) would have tasted better with some Honey Mustard on it.

I agree. I got the breakfast one this morning and I did not like it at all. I got the sandwich earlier this week and really liked that.

Thnanks for the info. DS has eaten there dozens of times without any reaction, thank God.

Hello everyone. As someone who also suffers peanut allergies and has done research with various doctors, I have found out that the allergies are caused by the peanut PROTEIN. Peanut oil does NOT have any peanut protein UNLESS it is cold-pressed, or otherwise stated.

 

Hope this helps
