Chick-fil-A launches new menu items… but customers fume that they're not available everywhere
Chick-fil-A has excited fans by launching some brand new menu items, but they are only available in select locations.
The exclusive new items will only be available at Truett's Chick-fil-A locations, the New York Post reported.
Truett's Chick-Fil-A restaurants are found in Georgia, and are special locations that celebrate the life and legacy of the chain's founder, Truett Cathy.
Truett's locations first opened in 2017 and offer a specialty Chick-fil-A menu, including new items banana pudding, sweet potato soufflé and sweet potato waffle fries.
Also included in the list of twelve new options are fried peach pie, tropical nuggets, tropical chicken minis, fried okra and crispy sprouts.
The fourteen special locations have also rolled out new beverages including cran-lime lemonade, frosted pineapple, pineapple nut milkshake and frosted Hawaiian.
'My Christmas wish would be that CFA sees that we would love these sort of options at all CFA locations!' food blogger Snoackbetch wrote on Instagram.
Other Chick-fil-A fans were more frustrated, with one commenting 'why can't we get tropical minis and banana pudding this is an outrage.'

'So annoyed they won't do this nationwide,' another wrote.
'Give us all of them nationwide,' a third agreed.
Chick-fil-A has tried to appease its customers' demands, recently bringing back the much-loved Banana Pudding Milkshake after thirteen years.
The milkshake contains the Chick-Fil-A 'Icedream dessert', banana and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles, as well as whipped cream topping and a cherry.
'I can't tell you the number of times I've gone to family reunions or spoken to someone at the store who found out I work at Chick-fil-A, "When is that Banana Pudding Milkshake coming back?" Chick-fil-A chef Christy Cook told USA Today at the time.
'When I think about banana pudding, I think about family reunions and community and something where I'm gathering with friends, and so that's what we want to convey with this shake,' Cook said.
Among the new menu items available at the Georgia locations is fried okra
Sweet potato souffle is also on the exclusive new menu
Chick-Fil-A also introduced a new version of its hit Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich on the same day as the Banana Pudding Milkshake.
The sandwich is a spicier sibling of the original, which was introduced to rave reviews from consumers last year.
