Yes! Breaded Cauliflower on a bun! It's going to be tested this Monday in three areas of the US, someplace in North Carolina, someplace in South Carolina and right here in Denver!
Just wonder if anyone else is going to try it!

Jesus...
Califlower...
A wave of excitement is failing to sweep me away...[Flower]
Goddammit, Bellavite, a good American loves cauliflower and sleepy Joe because they're both equally appealing!!!
Probably not.

I actually like the cauliflower pizza crusts as a low-carb sub for bread crust. But I don't know about a sandwich...not sure that's appealing enough to pay for without knowing if it's any good. Then again, Chick-fil-A makes some pretty good stuff for a fast food joint.
will it be chock full of MSG like their chicken?
I feel about cauliflower pizza crusts like I feel about turkey bacon and carrot cake. It's just forking cauliflower with delusions of grandeur.
Dude. Carrot cake is awesome.Quote:

Spice cake is awesome. Carrot cake is for masochists and people in war zones with sugar rationing. It is a cake full of lies for people who can't enjoy nice things and like to spoil the ends of movies. Carrots belong in salads, stews, and wisecracking rabbits. They belong in cake like Jeffrey Epstien belonged at girl scout camp. Carrot cake is an abomination that should be stricken from the earth, like snakes, spiders, politicians, and lawyers. Try a spice cake without carrots next time, and lament the years of needless suffering you have inflicted on your soul.
Nicely worded! [Beer]Quote:

I may give a fried cauliflower sandwich a try. It's no substitute for fried chicken, but it may be good as something in addition to fried chicken.
Off topic, but this subject appeared in a documentary I recently watched.Quote:

There's a popular misconception that MSG is particularly bad for health.
The FDA and other expert organizations generally regard MSG as safe in moderation. Jan 20, 2023
Back on topic - no Chic-fil-A test market in the Middle Florida Keys so I will not get the opportunity to try.

I will second that fried stuff is good.Quote:

They also say that vaccines are safe and exposure to glyphosate is safe, too. What they are "experts" at is promoting their agendaQuote:

Carrot cake is good, especially with cream cheese icing. I've had mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes, and it was good. I'd try a bite of a cauliflower burger, but no way I'd order it over chicken. that's crazy talk.
With chicken gravy, it tastes just like chicken. Might be good when on a date with a vegatron. MSG used to trigger migraines, I cut way back on Asian takeout. Nutritional medicine wise, it probably is very good for you. The chicky filet around here always has a line of cars waiting. Fthat.
Flash fried, with the right combination of spices, fried cauliflower isn't bad... but chicken will always be better. Just like a marinated portabello cap flame broiled and put on a bun isn't bad... but I'd rather have a burger. Good to have options I guess.
I can only assume you are a paid shill for Big CarrotQuote:

Smash burger puts a deep fried, cheese stuffed portobello on top of one of their burgers and it's awesome.
My trauma with carrot cake stems from childhood. My own beloved mother made a beautiful cake that looked so tasty. But then I bit into it and discovered it was full of carrots. This sort of parental deception does lasting damage to a young child; it's like telling your kids you are taking them to Disney when you're really taking them to the dentist. The lie should leave a bad taste in your mouth, just like the carrots.
Now I make an awesome apple spice cake, and a ginger cake that will cause atheists and heathens to praise Jesus. But no carrot cake for me, because I have integrity.
Wait, it was full of actual carrots? Not those little shaved specks of carrots? I love carrots, and carrot cake - but that sounds like a horrible mistake.Quote:

This cauliflower sandwich is currently available at the Chick-fil-A at Aspen Grove.
PS - I didn't try it. Spicy chicken sounded so much better.
Show me on the doll where the carrot cake touched you.
It touched me on the taste buds.
Look, I get it. Some of you are from a time when they put ham and lima beans in green jello and served it as an entree. The damage is done, and perhaps it went on long enough that it's absence now feels like a loss. But they have made tremendous strides in therapy these days, and you, too, deserve to feel love. And not that false, stringy, lie that Big Carrot has been trying to fool you with that this time will really be different.
Zucchini bread, soda bread, any type of pie or cake I’m there with a good cup of coffee or a cold glass of real milk. I sure do miss the small towns where every week there was a bake sale to raise money for something or someone. Those gals knew how to cook and bake.
To be perfectly fair, I've had bad carrot cake.Quote:

B' Man's BBQ in Sedalia has the best carrot cake... sells out quick
Can't wait to try cauliflower chik fil a... pretty versatile veggie
I like to cook and as such, I collect recipes.
Yesterday I saw a recipe for "Buffalo Cauliflower". I decided to pass on that recipe. If I want "buffalo" anything I think I'll just stick with chicken.
As to Chick Fil A, same thing goes, I'll just stick with chicken.
Now, as far as carrot cake goes.... I enjoy a GOOD carrot cake (Safeway makes the best I've had). JohnnyEgo, I get the fact that you have issues with it as there are many foods I just won't touch. But, it's still fun to razz you about it (all in good fun brother, all in good fun).
I only have issue with foods that taste terrible for no good reason, and foods that LIE!!!!
I have a thick skin and a 'quirky' sense of humor, so I was not bothered by any of it at all, and I may have even been having just a bit of hyperbolic fun myself, though only a little bit, because carrots do actually suck. I also appreciate my new title. I would have accepted 'Rages Against the Carrot Machine' as well, but I suspect it was too long to fit.
Also, we all thought Ray was lightly coated orange because of Cheetoh dust, but now I suspect it's really the cumulative effect of years of hard carrot consumption.

I'll take that carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, heavy on the cream cheese frosting, substitute red velvet for that carrot shit.Quote:

That said, in general, I don't feel like i've eaten a meal if there isn't meat involved so am unlikely to "prefer" this derivative, but i'd gladly try it.
