Oh No They Didn’t: Chick-Fil-A Begins PR Meltdown With Attempts to Label the Muppets as Endangering Children

If you were on the internet at all yesterday, you’re probably already aware that, according to reports, signs like this have been cropping up in Chick-Fil-A locations around the country, explaining to customers that the reason why their kids meals are coming without toys is because the Jim Henson Co. manufactured puppet parts that are dangerous to children.
