Chick-fil-A gives free lemonade refills...I think Canes charges for theirs.

Canes does charge for Lemonade refills, but I never charge anyone who asks for one. Too much of a hassle for 86 cents

That's great...I seem to get the clerk who doesn't mind the hassle and will charge.

Maybe because it is horrible.

Heck 9 out of 10 people that defend Cane's talk about the good sauce. I never see anyone saying the chicken is awesome. It is always that great mayo,ketchup worcestershire sauce sure is fantastic.

I just feel like I should be 400 pounds when I eat Canes. Seriously, the damn sauce has as many calories as the chicken. And to help you with your fat arse related problems, they give you 8 cents worth of Sams/Walmart fries and a piece of toast.

Exactly, it is fricking fried chicken. Yea, you may complain about the prices and small tenders. Don't complain about Canes, complain to Tyson chicken...

Anybody who feels the need to charge you for an extra 3-oz of sauce is a damn well gonna charge you for 12-oz of drink and ice. I can't wait until Chick-fil-a comes to Prairieville.

Horrible may be a tad harsh. The strips are bland as hell and the fries suck. Is it horrible? Maybe not but it isn't good enough to ever get another dime from me.

No biggie, Canes does not need your dime, they are doing JUST fine.

ETA: I am not trying to be a Canes homer, just saying it isn't "horrible"

I am not sure what you're saying. I don't hate on Cane's for no reason. In fact, until posting on this board, I had no idea there were even other Canes-haters in the world.

I don't like chicken that much to begin with, so when I eat it, it better be good.
My issue with Canes is that its SO greasy and heavy that I feel sick every time I eat it. I don't hate the way it tastes, I hate not being able to get out of bed every time I eat it. I don't choose to hate on Canes, but how would you view a place that makes you sick? It's the same reason I can't eat Hooter's.

Chik-fil-a isn't WONDERFUL, but there is definitely a difference between their chicken and the chicken at Canes (though you just said there is no difference). You can just look at it and tell the difference. Canes has a good centimeter thick of fry around the chicken.

Canes uses fresh Tyson breast tenderloins. I am not sure what chicken Chick-Fil-A serves, but I am pretty sure many of you have bought the same Tyson tenders at the store.

The meat itself isn't the problem for me.. I find all chicken meat itself tastes the same no matter how it's cooked. It's not the chicken that makes me sick at Canes.
It's the centimeter of batter around the chicken. I'm not even a healthy eater but all that fry and grease KILLS my stomach.

My coworkers and I all go so sick last time we ordered Canes that none of us eat it anymore.
