Reddit users are not happy with their Chick-fil-A sauce packet experiences
Some Reddit users are calling out a beloved fast-food chain over issues they've been having with the dipping sauces for their nuggets.
A user in the "r/ChickFilA" forum on Reddit posted a photo of six classic Chick-fil-A sauces.
Each packet shows the wrapper torn in different places – and the lids not fully opened.
"Why does this keep happening?! It feels impossible now," wrote the user.
The person added, "For a while I could pull [the lid] lower and wider, and it would work, but not anymore. So annoying, lol."
Fox News Digital reached out to Chick-fil-A for comment.
The post garnered over 1,000 reactions with customers weighing in and sharing similar dipping sauce stories.
"Glad to know it's not just me," commented one user.
A Redditor commented, "Thought this was my wife's photo. Had to take a double look. Just happened to her."
"They changed vendors recently for the seals. It shows. It's like this every time now," claimed one user.
A user added, "Happened to me on 2/2 sauces today, too."
"I've had this happen to me lately also — the corner to peel has been so hard to remove for me, almost like it's just stuck," wrote one Redditor.
One person shared, "I went to CFA [Chick-fil-A] earlier and both CFA sauce packets did this. The lids kept coming apart when I peeled and had to be removed in like 4 different pieces."
The person went on, "From some other comments it seems like there might be a batch of packets that are doing this."
A user wrote, "I thought I was the only one with this struggle."
"The trick is to bend the corner tab down first; that gives you a better pull when opening the cover," one person suggested.
One user shared, "I was about to post this — 5 trips in a row, at least 3-4 sauces each all split."
Chick-fil-A offers seven different dipping sauces.
"It seems like there might be a batch of packets that are doing this."
Those are Barbeque, Garden Herb Ranch, Honey Mustard, Polynesian, Sweet & Spicy Sriracha, Zesty Buffalo and its signature Chick-fil-A sauce.
"Our classic dipping sauce [has] notes of mustard and a smoky tang," the restaurant's website says about its own special sauce.

Miss Manners: Minister must learn to juggle conversations
Dear Miss Manners: I am a ministry leader at my church and am well-known within the congregation. After the church service, many people like to stay in the lobby for a few minutes to chat. I find myself often in an embarrassing situation that I don't know how to handle: Suppose I've been chatting with someone, let's call them Person A, for just a minute. Then I feel someone, Person B, touch my shoulder or arm to get my attention. I turn to see that it's another friendly person who wishes to chat.

Asking Eric: Hoarder's friend wants to help but doesn't want to shame
Dear Eric: I have a friend of several decades and recently learned she is a hoarder. We always met outside our homes for coffee or lunch. I just assumed it was more convenient. A few months ago, she texted to tell me she's been embarrassed for me to find out her 'secret.' She also asked me for help. I was thrilled and offered to help, but she refused to make a commitment.

Carolyn Hax: After visits to their mom's, stepkids unleash on their stepmom
Adapted from an online discussion. Dear Carolyn: My stepkids don't like me. I suspect it's due to alienation from their mother. My husband has full custody, and they see their high-conflict mother every other weekend. Every time they come back, they are different — hostile and nasty to me, despite my caring for them and providing for their needs. I'm thinking of pulling back and letting their father lead. As of right now, I do a lot of the house managing, cooking and making sure chores get done. My husband is resentful and thinks it'll reinforce their negative opinions about me. How do I do this delicately? — Loving, Caring Stepmom Loving, Caring Stepmom: I think you're jumping to the most negative conclusion (they 'don't like me') when the same facts also support a different one. That they dump on you after they've been to their mom's suggests their hostility is about her, not you. Maybe they're coming home full of nasty things she said about you — the obvious interpretation. Or, they are stressed in her home, and they come home wrecked. And the home you made with their dad feels safe, so that's where they let out the ugly stuff. If this is true, then of course that would feel awful for you — like punishment for your good deeds. (That should be parenting's tagline.) Nor is it good that they do this. I'm not excusing it. Soon, as adults, they will bear full responsibility for behaving civilly and doing their emotional work. But kids are still emotional works in progress and can't be expected to do graceful things — yet — with some seriously complex feelings. Especially with so many adults so publicly making a mess of it. They may, for example, feel intense guilt for preferring their stepmother's care to their mother's. I'm not saying this is true — it's a for-instance. I'm just suggesting they may trust you and count on you in ways you don't understand, or have reasons they come home angry that you aren't privy to. What I propose is a visualization that can help all of you regardless of who resents whom and why: Imagine you're a giant rock on a shoreline. The stepkids are the sea. You are there, doing what you do, being who you are, no matter how the waters roil and crash around you. 'That hurts,' you might say, but no punishing back. It's the long game, and it is powerful. As for your husband — he is resentful, why? If it's about your washing your hands of everyone and letting him deal with it, then, okay. I imagine you both entered marriage and full custody as a team commitment. If he resents that you expect him to get more involved than he feels like being, though, then I'll start to suspect a more problematic backstory than just a problematic ex and their problematically acting-out kids. A reader's thought: · When I brought my now-spouse into my kids' lives after divorce, I spoke to each kid separately and said, 'You don't have to like X, but you do have to treat them with the same respect everyone is due.' My kids were free to reject every overture to do something with X, but only with 'No, thank you.' And when they crossed the line, I made them apologize. Also, it was my job to do this, not X's, and I thanked X repeatedly for their patience. Each kid softened in their own time. I felt I had to honor how little agency my kids had in the shifting family dynamics but also teach them there are right and wrong ways to treat people.
