Chick-fil-A, a renowned fast-food chicken chain, is under scrutiny after an employee shared a video on TikTok revealing the massive food waste at closing time.

The video displays trays of untouched chicken nuggets being thrown away instead of being donated to those in need. The viral video sparked outrage, with TikTok users viewing it over 7.8 million times and criticizing the restaurant’s wastefulness.

“Jesus would not approve,” wrote one person.

“People were furious with Chick-fil-A for being so wasteful with their leftover food,” a TikTok user commented, echoing the sentiments of many.

“Give them out for free. What the hell.”

“They think God is okay with this?”

While some commenters acknowledged potential health concerns, many expressed concern for the hungry and homeless. Suggestions ranged from offering the food for free to letting employees take leftovers home.

A former Chick-fil-A employee supported the claims, stating, “We used to throw out so much chicken.” The controversy sheds light on the balance between food safety regulations and reducing waste.
