Did Chick-fil-A change their fries in Colorado?

Jan 6, 2025, 3:41 PM | Updated: 3:46 pm

The old adage goes, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” but Chick-fil-A clearly didn’t get that memo!

There was a rumor last summer they were ditching their waffle fries completely, and switching to normal-cut fries. It wasn’t true. However, Chick-fil-A did reveal they were looking at ways to make them crispier.

It’s not clear when the new fries rolled out, they must have in Colorado and across the U.S. I know that because a ton of people online are complaining that they’re drier, grainier, and not as good as they used to be.

Chick-fil-A added a page on their website and confirmed they ARE using a new recipe. The main difference is the fries are now coated with pea starch to keep them crispier, longer. But they claim they still have the “same great taste.”

A lot of people disagree. So now everything Chick-fil-A posts on social is being flooded with comments like, “Bring back the old fries” and “Your fries are not good anymore.”

Southern fast food chicken chain, Bojangles, is coming to Colorado in 2025
