Chick-fil-A quietly changed the recipe for a fan favorite menu item — and the reviews are terrible: ‘Sooo gross’
NY Post
They’re pretty clucking unhappy.
Chick-fil-A fans are feeling uncharacteristically salty toward the fast food chain after finding out their fave has been tinkering with the waffle fry recipe.
“We recently made a slight adjustment to our Waffle Potato Fries recipe, which offers the same great taste while also making our Waffle Potato Fries stay crispier, longer,” the company recently said in a notice posted to the website.
But there’s an ingredient in that adjusted recipe that’s got some stomachs churning — pea starch.
Chicken cheerleader Daryl-Ann Denner is one loyalist that’s got a bone to pick with the Atlanta-based company.
“I eat Chick-fil-A at least a few times a week, and I would say by the middle of November I caught on to something being different with the fries,” Denner, 34, told Southern Living.
