"A widely popular fried chicken sandwich chain known for consistently praised sandwiches, it is also controversial for its conservative political associations — reports say it donated $1.8 million to anti-LGBTQ organizations in 2017. That split between product appeal and political giving has made it a frequent subject of public and political debate, with some commentators and politicians saying they can separate an appreciation for the food from opposition to the company’s politics and urging engagement as a way to persuade leadership to stop funding anti-LGBTQ causes." - Greg Morabito
