Chick-fil-A, Taco Bell and Starbucks are among the restaurants encouraging customers to grab their food and go. All three are making heavy use of their drive-thrus to distribute food, while still limiting crowds of customers from gathering. Even before the coronavirus ushered in an age of social distancing, drive-thru service was hugely popular in the U.S. Experts estimate that about 60% to 70% of a restaurant's sales come from the drive-thru, if they have one. In a segment with razor-thin margins like fast food, providing solid drive-thru service can be make or break.

ROANOKE, Va. – For those in Florida, starting next month they won’t need to go to a Chick-fil-A to have some of the restaurant’s amazing sauces. The restaurant announced Wednesday that it’s launching a pilot program to sell both Chick-fil-A sauce and its Polynesian sauce in all Florida Publix, Target, Walmart and Winn-Dixie stores. Rather than sell these bottles for company profit, 100 percent of Chick-fil-A, Inc. proceeds from the retail sales of the 16-ounce bottled sauces will be donated to Chick-fil-A’s Team Member scholarship program, which will award $17 million to 6,700 Team Members in 2020. Those who go to a Chick-fil-A in Florida won’t be limited to those two sauces but will also be able to get 8-ounce bottles of barbecue, honey mustard and garden herb ranch.

The chicken sandwich wars have infiltrated the "help wanted" section. Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen said it ran classified ads on Sunday in The New York Times, New York Post, Boston Globe and Miami Herald seeking applicants who can work Sundays and who have experience preparing chicken sandwiches. The contact on the classified ads is "SundayOpenings@Popeyes.com." Popeyes, owned by Restaurant Brands International, introduced a chicken sandwich to its national menu in August, prompting comparisons to sandwiches from Chick-fil-A, the biggest chicken chain in the U.S. by sales. Before long, the "chicken sandwich wars" were in full swing, with brands trading barbs on Twitter and an explosion of taste tests.

In fast food, Chick-fil-A has long dominated the chicken sandwich. In August 2019, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen launched a chicken sandwich with pickles and a buttered bun. Chick-fil-A's rapid rise to the top has spooked competitors, including McDonald's, whose U.S. franchisees asked corporate to develop it's own competing chicken sandwich in July. McDonald's started testing a Crispy Chicken Sandwich in two markets, entering the chicken sandwich wars. Who's winning the chicken sandwich war?

Chick-fil-A and Popeye's are about to get some new, crispy competition. Fast-food restaurant chain McDonald's is expected to launch a crispy chicken sandwich in the beginning of next year and Telsey Advisory Group said its going to be a "big U.S. hit for the chain." Chick-fil-A, Popeye's and Wendy's have achieved great success from the popularity of their chicken sandwiches. The so-called chicken wars have put pressure on McDonald's to find a competitive chicken option for the fast-food chain. "MCD's New Crispy Chicken Sandwich Tastes Really Good!"

McDonald's franchisees have asked for a Southern-style chicken sandwich as Chick-fil-A's threat to their business grows. The board of the National Owners Association, an independent franchisee group, wrote in an email in July that a chicken sandwich should be their top priority. The chain is testing a Crispy Chicken Sandwich in Houston and Knoxville, Tennessee. But the Chicago-based chain has not tested anything similar to Chick-fil-A's chicken sandwich since 2018, when it tested the Ultimate Chicken Sandwich in more than 160 locations in Washington state. Chick-fil-A's chicken sandwich has helped the chain become the nation's third-largest restaurant chain by sales, trailing only McDonald's and Starbucks.

ROANOKE, Va. – Chick-fil-A confirmed to Thomson Reuters Foundation on Monday that it would no longer support two Christian organizations opposed to same-sex marriage.

Participating children were not required to be a member of FCA and did not have to sign any FCA pledges. Salvation Army: In 2017, the Foundation provided approximately $150,000 to support children’s programs in Atlanta, including camps for kids and the Angel Tree.

Popeyes' chicken sandwich will return to stores Nov. 3. In August, the Restaurant Brands International chain sold out of its new chicken sandwich in a little more than two weeks. Customers who wanted to compare the new sandwich to Chick-fil-A's classic chicken sandwich reported long lines inside restaurants and at the drive-thru. To prepare for consumer demand of the chicken sandwich, one Popeyes franchisee is planning on hiring 400 more employees, according to a Bloomberg report. Thanks to the launch of the sandwich, Popeyes had its best quarter in nearly two decades, reporting U.S. same-store sales growth of more than 10%.

Chick-fil-A opened its first location in the United Kingdom in early October.

But for one Chick-fil-A employee, it was just another day on the job. It all started when Hall was going to get her son out of her van and dropped her phone straight down a storm drain. After they hung up on him, Seth and Hall noticed the man hole cover next to the drain wasn't bolted down. "He then climbs down into the hole and retrieves my phone which miraculously is not broken or wet." Hall said Seth asked her to snap a photo of him so he could show his girlfriend what he did at work that day.

The Roanoke County Planning Commission recommended approval for a rezoning to build a new LewisGale free standing emergency room in the Bonsack area despite objections from neighbors who've fought development in the past and welcome the facility, just somewhere else. That led to neighbors feeling deja vu in many of the comments they made to the planning commission, just like when they fought the Chick-fil-A that was approved five years ago, also at the entrance to their neighborhood. But even with that in mind, many of the neighbors walked out feeling steam rolled by the countty. The area unsuccessfully fought the Chick-fil-A opening five years ago and the restaurant was mentioned in nearly every comment. The planning commission highlighted the fact that the corridor is designated as transitional, and it has been in the plan for nearly two decades to put the land to better use.

A California Chick-fil-A manager is being credited with saving the life of a 20-year-old man who was unresponsive in the restaurant's parking lot. Handing his tablet to a co-worker, he bolted across the lot and found a man inside the vehicle who was unresponsive and not breathing. The man "wasn't breathing or anything, his eyes were rolled back behind his head, I know this guy was out," Nenguke told KGTV.

ODESSA, Texas - As if we needed any more reasons to love Chick-fil-A, two Chick-fil-A restaurants in Odessa teamed up to feed hundreds of first responders after Saturday's deadly shooting. Employees worked and cooked 500 sandwiches, according to a Facebook post by one of the restaurants.

After nearly 50 years in business, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen is finally bringing a chicken sandwich to its national menu. With pickles and a buttered bun, the sandwich resembles that of Chick-fil-A, the biggest chicken chain in the U.S. by sales. McDonald's U.S. franchisees said last month that the global fast-food chain needs its own take on Chick-fil-A's signature chicken sandwich to compete with the fast-growing Southern chain. Privately held Chick-fil-A is now the nation's third-largest restaurant chain by sales, according to Nation's Restaurant News.

And then last years No 1, Pizza Ranch, didnt even earn enough votes to qualify for this years poll, Food and Wine points out. As for McDonalds, it actually came in last place -- but as the Food and Wine article points out, the burger continues to top every single restaurant on the entire list in sales.

It seems as though weve got holidays for everything, a lot of which a good portion of us may not necessarily celebrate Lion Day, Penpal Day, Drive-In Movie Day but Cow Appreciation Day is certainly one we can get down with, especially because Chick-fil-A restaurants all over the country will be giving away free entrees in celebration on Tuesday.

But that didn't stop one Georgia teen when he saw a 6-year-old boy choking in the drive-thru this week. Now, manager Logan Simmons is being called a hero -- and rightfully so.
