Chick-fil-A Under Fire for Throwing Away Food
A recent TikTok video posted by an anonymous Chick-fil-A employee has sparked outrage among viewers. The video shows perfectly good chicken being thrown away at the end of the day, a daily occurrence according to the employee. With over 7.8 million views on social media, people are expressing their frustration, suggesting that the food should be given to the homeless instead.
The video has prompted discussions about whether the actions of Chick-fil-A align with their Christian values. Many social media comments reflect this concern, with individuals questioning the amount of food wasted and the number of people who go hungry. One comment echoes the sentiment, “The amount of food we throw away and the amount of starving people there are just doesn’t sit right with me.”
In confirming the practice, an employee admitted, “We used to throw out SO much chicken…” Others joined the conversation, suggesting that the food could be given out for free or that employees should be allowed to take it home.
However, some argue that restaurants are required to throw away unsold food for safety reasons, as giving it to the homeless could pose a risk to their health. But opponents of this viewpoint counter by pointing out that Chick-fil-A is a bustling place where fresh chicken is constantly being cooked, making it unlikely for the food to go bad.
The question remains: Should Chick-fil-A give their leftovers to those in need instead of wasting so much food? This is a topic that deserves discussion and raising awareness among the public.
