I've only had Chick-Fil-A twice, once when I was like 10 and on vacation in Saint Louis (so I don't remember it) and once like a year ago at the nearest location, and apparently it's not a very good location.

If someone intentionally picks up a smutty book then it's fine, I only have an issue with it if it's being made readily available to minors (like books with explicit sex being shelved in YA sections)

But YA is Young Adult.

pft. hardly

But… It does.

I have to agree with Eris here. Even though the section is labeled "Young Adult", the target audience for some Young Adult books can be blurry to say the least. Young Adult books seem to often be targeted less towards the 18-25 range of actual "Young Adulthood" but closer to a 16ish- early to mid twenties. Books that are marketed towards teens can end up on those shelves and so can younger adult books with plenty of examples of books that go towards the blurred age range. Ready Player One (my favourite novel) if not put in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy category could be placed in the YA section and the target audience of that could be as young as fifteen, far under the adult mark.

Also, unless the YA section was treated like just a sub-section of an adult section, I would not be questioned when I walked up to the counter with a YA book (and I probably wouldn't be). Unless you restrict YA like an adult section entirely or just remove the sub-section, it's less adult and more "The Old Teen Section".

Not gonna lie I always made a beeline for the YA section because books for kids my age are boring and repetitive. Been doing it since I was eight and I’m not exactly an older teen now. I always assumed it was just for older kids.

@Mojack group

There’s no Chick Fil A where I live so I haven’t had it either

Actually I think there’s only one in my entire country, but it isn’t even in my province

Greetings all. I've returned from my extremely long period of having no way to communicate with you. Having a lively discussion?

@Bananapudding

I have an unpopular opinion. Fruit and chocolate shouldn’t be mixed. Get your cherry and raspberry stuff out of my cake.

Agreed. It's hella gross

Unpopular Opinion:
Something Shady© was going on in sister Salem and caused the witch trials, it was not caused by the afflicted girls wanting attention or being bored.

Actually the water was contaminated with a fungus from which LSD is derived and A legitimate theory is that everyone in the town was just tripping balls.
