Chick-Fil-A has the best chicken sandwich around, not to mention great fries to compliment it, but Chick-Fil-A recently made a major change - at least for me - that creates a less enjoyable experience for lunch. What is the major change? Their mayonnaise. If you recall, the mayonnaise packets Chick-Fil-A used to carry were white with a red logo. Now, the mayonnaise packets are blue and taste different; not good different. A Chick-Fil-A sandwich is best with their original mayonnaise; the only way to eat their fries is to also smother them in original Chick-Fil-A mayonnaise.
Every time I visit I hope to see the old packs of mayo back, but I am tragically disappointed each time. However, this must only be a Central Florida deal because when I visited my fiancé the other week in Ohio, we visited a Chick-Fil-A outside of Dayton and low-and-behold they had the original mayonnaise. When I have asked local Chick-Fil-A employees about the change they all look at me as if I'm from a different planet, which is disheartening. I can't be the only one who notices this change in taste, right? I do not have an old pack to compare with the new, but I believe the change in taste has to do with the new mayo having soy bean oil as an ingredient.
Chick-Fil-A will never be the same.
Anyway, my post was indeed about mayonnaise and my disappointment about Chick-Fil-A changing it.
Chick-Fil-A is so good, but I never have the time nor money to buy it. Sucks that they changed some ingredients on you. Love your post!
ReplyDeleteBTW, when I say "yesterday", I really mean Saturday because Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about McDonald's honey mustard! Enjoy your passion on this topic though. :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but click on your post when it said mayonaise. I didn't know what to expect and I was not disappointed with this post. I haven't paid much attention to Chick Fil A's mayonaise. I'd be much more disappointed if they changed their namesake sauce. Since it is a mayonaise base, I wonder if that's changed over the years too?

ReplyDeleteMayonnaise is quite the obsession in my house! I will check the Chik Fila by work to see if it is a UCF CFA decision. Some items sold on the mayonnaise shelf are not actually mayonnaise. I have serious Mayo Addict in the house...so I could understand the disappointment. (No I am not the addict) Obviously your title caught many readers! Who knew !

ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge mayonnaise consumer, but I really enjoyed your enthusiasm for original Chick-Fil-A mayonnaise!
