A website is selling Chick-fil-A sandwiches on Sunday... Website risks eternal damnation by re-selling Chick-fil-A sandwiches on Sunday. MSCHF's latest project bypasses Chick-fil-A's Sunday store closures

MSCHF is the group responsible for giving us projects involving stuff like astrologically sound investment planning, AI-generated foot pics, boomer email collections, and both sacred and blasphemous sneakers filled with either holy water or blood-containing, Lil Nas X-affiliated “Satan Shoes.” This last concept—and the predictable furor that accompanied it—seems to have inspired yet another “evil” idea: A website where visitors can order a Chick-fil-A sandwich when the restaurant’s closed on Sunday.

“Sunday Service” lets buyers sign up to order a Chick-fil-A sandwich (priced, of course, at $6.66) that’s delivered during the one day a week that Christ has deemed unacceptable for sandwich-related commerce. That’s pretty much the whole idea.

The website cites Colossians 2:16 (“Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to the Sabbath”) and includes a manifesto which states that “certain American values go hand in hand. For example, conservative Christianity pairs perfectly with a correspondingly devout faith in the ‘free market.’”

I wonder if Chic Fil A has any legal remedies against this. Don't you need a license agreement to be a reseller of goods? Can I just walk into a McDonald's, buy 20 hamburgers and then sit on the curb and sell them to passersby?

Sure you can. McDonald's is selling a product, you buy that product, it becomes yours, you can resell it if you want.

I agree with Abby - though I think you'd have to be careful you don't use their marks etc. (I think)

I suspect there is, and also a lot a health laws concerning the selling of perishable foods. That is why only certain types of food items that are packaged sealed with sell by dates can be sold on Ebay for example.

There are but within certain limits. In a way all the food delivery services are doing just that, but in agreement with the franchise.

Well, not exactly, people order and pay for the food, the delivery service just, delivers it to them.

A day under a heat lamp? Refrigerated and then microwaved?

You have to be pretty desperate to eat that sandwich.

I'm sure that McDonalds would be happy if you did.
