Ordering chicken tenders in a date/professional setting

Got in a convo with a coworker today after she favor'd a 4-piece tender meal from Bush's Chicken for lunch at work. She basically said as much as she loves chicken tenders, she would never order them in front of a boss or date, as she thinks they have a stigma of being "childish" and unrefined, even going to the point where if a date ordered chicken tenders, she would be immediately turned off and leave. I asked if this held true even during a casual lunch at a cafe, or a grabbing a quick bite to eat at a fast-food joint or fried chicken place and she still agreed it was a huge turn off.

tl;dr: Is there a negative social stigma behind ordering chicken tenders/strips during a date, or is it just her being stuck up?

She's a lowlife for ever eating at a place that serves chicken tenders. Tell her I would never date her for that reason.

Nothing wrong with chicken tenders. The pretentious foodies can suck it.

The only professional you should date is the one you pay to leave when it's over. Chicken shouldn't be part of that transaction.


Now, chiken....

What's her stance on eating a banana, or sausage on a stick on a date/professional setting?

I know a guy who got a lot of flack for putting ketchup on his lobster at a high end steak joint.

They should have fired his sorry country ass.

"How'd your lunch date go yesterday, Karen?"

"Well it was weird. I told him I wanted to go to Chick-Fil-A and, of course, I ordered the nuggets as always. Then he started to order the chicken sandwich and I was like 'okay this guy is getting his d*** sucked later', but then he changed his mind and ordered the chicken strips, like some kind of f***ing child. I just walked out. I couldn't take it. He texted me asking what happened and I blocked him. I'm so sick of immature guys."

I usually ask the server if they have chicken tenders when I'm on a business dinner as a way to bring some levity. It gets a good laugh then I order what I really wanted. I'm pretty awesome so I can get away with it

Boneless wings are nuggets.

My ladies always look into my eyes when ordering wings and say 'bone in'

Is favor so popular that it's now used as a verb when someone orders from a food delivery app lol? I've always thought Uber eats and door dash were more popular.

Is that before or after you ask them if it's for here or to go?

Having your date order chicken fingers can be a good thing because you'll get a window into their personality. If they get them with anything but honey mustard that's a sign you should run like hell!

It's about as childish as using the word 'convo' in actual conversation.

If you are at Bush's Chicken for a date or professional lunch I would say it's fine ordering the tenders.


Exactly. Those lawns aint going to mow themselves. So slam down those chicken nuggets and get back to mowing.
