I think CFA being closed on Sunday actually drives more business their way. Something about not being able to have something when you want it. I read recently their locations far outsell their contemporaries. It also must make scheduling far easier.

I could take it or leave it. Nobody eats there because it’s always packed.

Regarding the bold, that very well may be true. 

Regarding the italics, I could see other factors in play. 

Various public chains which operate on a more pure franchisee model I think tend to lead to higher density of locations than Chick fil A (which is private). According to Wiki, CFA builds and owns its locations. I can say that locally I see the same with In n Out (also private), which I believe also builds and owns its locations. 

Keeping appropriate spacing between locations can lead IMHO to higher per-location sales numbers, and the locations being more crowded. 

For example, below are the locations near me for Chick-fil-A, In n Out, and McDonald's (for comparison):








I'm going to assume that this leads to higher per-store sales because there are fewer stores. 

Obviously McD's to InO is a direct comparison as burger joints, but I don't know of a good analog in this area for chicken-specific restaurants. We don't have a lot of Popeye's or KFC in my area, and Raising Cane's is relatively new to south OC as far as I can tell--I didn't see them popping up until maybe 3-4 years ago. 

If we're driving somewhere we stop at a McDs for breakfast.  For lunch, it's a bit of a crap shoot.  If we're not in much of a hurry, I'll stop at Cracker Barrel though my wife is not much of a fan.  Otherwise I'll look for a CFA.  We did have lunch at a McDs on our last trip because nothing else in a small town looked reasonable.  I was astonished that it was $23 for two quarter pounder meals.  This was in a small north Georgia town with not much going on.  

There was a Huddle House across the street, I cannot recommend.

I've seen that. It's pretty Gaudi.

We toured several of his buildings. Very unique architect.

I think nearly all of our common vegetables and fruits have been massively "bred" for human consumption.

I remember that, I was in high school.  A few folks started up some club of ecology or something.  I don't think they actually DID anything.  Nixon signed the EPA into law.

I view most such Federal agencies in a dim light, but I will give the EPA some credit though obviously it has been very inefficient, it at least managed something, in contrast say with the Department of Education.  Or Energy.
