Survey: Chick-fil-A is once again teenagers' favorite restaurant chain
Chick-fil-A is once again teenagers' favorite restaurant chain. It is the chicken chains fourth time making the top of the list.
Fast food competitors might chicken out to learn that Chick-fil-A was the third-largest restaurant chain by U.S sales last year, according to a new report.
Findings recently published by Technomic claimed that Americans truly "ate more chikin"' in 2019, with Chick-Fil-A's system sales jumping 13 percent to $11.3 billion, Restaurant Business Online reports.
The chick-centric chain flew close to second-ranked Starbucks, which generated $21.4 billion in U.S. sales and the first-place McDonalds, made a mind-boggling $40.4 billion last year.
