I'll miss the spicy biscuit but at least the regular biscuit will still be available. Don't know why they insist putting cheese and egg on chicken though; I once ordered a spicy biscuit and they messed up and put cheese and egg on it and it was totally disgusting. My dad is the least picky eater and he couldn't even finish it.

If they ever mess with my Chic-fil-a sauce though I will make it my mission in life to buy the whole company and fix that mistake.

Not only did my local CFA get rid of the spicy biscuit, they don't have the regular spicy chicken sandwich on the menu either. You can only get the deluxe.

What is happening at this company?

Same thing for me. The menu has spicy only available as a deluxe, and no deluxe version of the regular. It's bizarre I don't know what's happening.
 
I would occasionally get the spicy biscuit, but I ordered the cinnamon cluster every time I went there for breakfast.

Holy shit. I thought something was up. Their menu looked incomplete when I went yesterday morning, but I just chalked it up to not being fully awake.


Fuck you CFA. Fuck you and your stupid egg white mcdonalds bullshit.
 
as long as they don't get rid of the cheese sauce at my location, i'll live. if your chick fil a doesnt have cheese sauce, i weep 4 u. it isnt regular ol yellow cheez whiz type stuff either

I checked with my local Chick-fil-A, and they said that even though the spicy chicken biscuit and spicy chicken sandwich are not listed on their menu, you could still order both of them.

So check with your local CFA to see if that applies for you as well.

Surrounded by CFAs and none of them will make the biscuit.
 
Lies!




And yo what's up with the new BBQ sauce? Shit is wack as fuck. Like for real, it's a steak sauce that does not go well with chicken at all. CFA going down the gutter

I spit out the first nugget I had in that new BBQ trash because I thought the old sauce had gone bad. Garbage tier.

Guys, guys, guys.

I just went to Chick-Fil-A in my area and they no longer listed the Spicy Chicken SANDWICH on their menu. I had to ask them if they still have it. They luckily still offer it as a meal, but still. I fear this might mean something bad with the news of the biscuit being discontinued. Are they trying to silently kill spicy chicken at Chick-Fil-A?

What would be the logic?

When Chick-fil-A Inc. announced it was going to drop the Spicy Chicken Biscuit from its menu, social media users across the country went into a frenzy.

So, why would the Atlanta-based restaurant chain kill off such a “widely popular” item? Low sales.

David Farmer, vice president of menu strategy and development, said the Spicy Chicken Biscuit “represented one half of one percent of breakfast sales.”

“Despite poor sales, the change was not taken lightly,” the company said. “Even when faced with low sales figures, it’s a difficult decision and a balancing act to give customers both what they want and what they expect.”

While most restaurants no longer serve the Spicy Chicken Biscuit (it’s still available in 55 markets nationwide), Chick-fil-A said it recently added a new Spicy Southwest Salad to the lunch and dinner menus and the Spicy Chicken Sandwich is still available for lunch and dinner.


And for those who still want a little kick with breakfast, Billy Koehler, Chick-fil-A customer technology specialist and resident amateur chef of Fuzzy’s Kitchen has an idea.

“I think there’s a great opportunity here to come up with something that is sweet and savory with our existing condiments, like the Zesty Buffalo Sauce,” he said. “Or another idea is to add some honey on the biscuit with half a Texas Pete packet on each side of the filet.”

The company replaced the Spicy Chicken Biscuit by introducing its first new breakfast entree in six years, the Egg White Grill.

Targeted toward health-conscious customers, the sandwich has a breakfast-sized portion of grilled chicken breast, grilled egg whites and American cheese served on a toasted multigrain English muffin. The sandwich has 300 calories and 25 grams of protein. The price starts at $3.35.

The new Egg White Grill is Chick-fil-A's first new breakfast entree since 2010.

Chick-fil-A first launched breakfast items in 1986, with the Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit. It's since added Chick-n-Minis, a Breakfast Burrito, the Greek Yogurt Parfait and a fresh fruit cup.

Chick-fil-A has more than 1,900 stores in 42 states and Washington, D.C.

wow, 0.5%? That is crazy low

That does seem really low, but I can understand people not wanting spicy in the morning. Granted, I don't really understand fried chicken for breakfast at all (and "fried chicken" may well be listed as my cause of death).

Who are these 99.5% of people not getting a spicy chicken biscuit for breakfast? I'm disappointed in all of you.

They offer me either the Spicy Chicken Deluxe or the standard Spicy Chicken, despite it not being on the menu any more. Florida if it matters. Obviously doesnt help with the breakfast.

My local Chick-Fil-A still has the spicy biscuit listed (as an option for the #1 combo now). On the menu it shows both Original and Spicy as options for that combo. Seems like this isn't the norm?

My CFA says they no longer have what is needed to make the spicy chicken biscuit, but they will make a normal spicy filet and put it on a biscuit if you want. There is a 5-10 minute wait for it though.

Yeah, it's not the norm. I asked this past week, and my local one only has the filet at lunch/dinner.
