Chick-fil-A Prices Up 21% In The Last 2 Years As Customers Blame ‘Corporate Greed’

Chick-fil-A Prices Skyrocket

Chick-fil-A is well-known for their tasty milkshakes, incredible customer service, and, of course, those delicious, juicy chicken sandwiches. However, people now have to shell out more money than ever to pay for a meal from the fast food giant. In fact, according to data from Food Truck Empire, a Chick-fil-A sandwich now costs 21% more than it did two years ago.

That's right: A year ago, in January of 2023, Chick-fil-A implemented a 6% price increase on all menu items. The previous year, their signature sandwich increased in price by 15%. That means your favorite chicken sandwich is now significantly pricier than it was just two years ago.

Although CEO and founder of consulting firm Axxeum Partners, Aaron Anderson, cited rising costs of ingredients, packaging, and transportation as the root cause of this issue in Newsweek, many customers find the price tag unacceptable.

"It’s not inflation! Chick-fil-A is raising their prices because they can and because of corporate greed!" one person wrote on X, the website formerly known as Twitter.

"Chick-fil-A raising their prices 20% is a prime example of inflation driven by corporate greed not economic policy," another poster echoed.

What do you think? Can we chalk it up to inevitable inflation, or is there something more at play? And will you still be enjoying those chicken sandwiches regardless?

If prices are, indeed, getting too high for you to justify, we have a hot tip: You can pick up some great nuggets that taste just like Chick-fil-A's at Costco. But you didn't hear it from us!
