Review of The Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit
I think that the Chicken Biscuit's only available for breakfast, but don't quote me on that since I've never tried ordering one at any other time than in the morning. They might be available whenever Chick-fil-A is open--so you can quote me saying that you will never get a Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit on Sunday because the guy who started Chick-fil-A is big into Jesus and no Chick-fil-A is open on God's day. I'm a pretty big guy and I can't eat 2 of these things. I mean I could do it; I have done it; but I never felt good after the fact. This morning I had exactly 1 Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit and a cup of coffee and that was a pretty good breakfast. The biscuit part of the Chicken Biscuit is a little crispy on the outside. You know that whatever the dough recipe is in the factory where these things are pumped out it's filled with butter and probably lard or crisco too, cause that's what gives the biscuit this texture. They're more crumbly than flaky, and because of this I don't think I'd want to have the biscuit by itself, or even smothered with country gravy. For that you want soft, pillowy biscuits, the kind of biscuit that cleaves easily when you sink the blunt side of a fork into it. But for this sandwhich, the crumbly biscuit works fine, unless you're driving (and I cannot remember a time when I had a chicken biscuit and I was not driving) because then the biscuit crumbs get all over your shirt and pants, and there's so much grease that these crumbs will spot your clothing not unlike potato chips will spot a brown paper bag should you dump them into a brown paper bag for whatever reason. I saw that on a commercial once, one that I think was advertizing less greasy potato chips. The chick part of the chicken biscuit is pretty good, pretty standard fried chicken, pieced together white meat. A big difference here though when it comes to the white meat chick is that it has the right texture of unprocessed white meat chicken. t's not like, for example, the Chicken McNuggets at McDonald's. Those things are completely unnatural; you can't tell where the nugget part might have come from. There's no striation to the meat; it's just been ground up and pressed into the nugget shape. The chicken at Chick-fil-A still has the strings of meat that made up the breast muscle of the chicken this meat came from, so it feels like you're eating a real chicken. The coffee, also, was pretty good.

their chicken tastes so strange. it's marinated in pickle juice and sugar i think.
everything below the mason-dixon line--even mason and dixon themselves and their wretched tombs--is marinated in pickle juice and sugar
