We tried a new Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich clone to see how it compared to the real thing

Convenience store food: the last resort of late-night eating.

While some chains have gained cult followings, most are - rightfully so, I wager - derided for their dubious culinary offerings.

But many, like 7-Eleven, keep trying. The well-known convenience chain recently released a chicken sandwich that is suspiciously similar to Chick-fil-A's classic sandwich.

I've never been one for convenience-store dining myself.

But I became curious: Could it be anywhere near Chick-fil-A's virtually unrivaled sandwich? With a similar price point, it's not completely outside the realm of reason.

I decided to try it and see for myself if this Chick-fil-A clone can hack it.
