Chick-fil-A is testing a new one-of-a-kind plant-forward entree – the Chick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich – in three US markets.

Inspired by flavors from the original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich, theChick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich is made with a tender filet cut from a whole, real cauliflower that is marinated and breaded in the original Chick-fil-A signature seasoning, pressure-cooked and paired with two dill pickle chips and served between two toasted, buttery buns.  

The testing of the Cauliflower Sandwich is currently taking place in Denver, Charleston, S.C. and North Carolina’s Greensboro-Triad region.

Customers in the three test markets can check the Chick-fil-A App or contact their local Chick-fil-A restaurant to find out if their restaurant will be participating in the test.

According to the brand, Chick-fil-A chefs created, developed and tested the sandwich in-house for nearly four years to find the right ingredients and perfect the recipe.

For the fifth time in six years, the New York Mets are in the market for a manager.

Buck Showalter was fired after a disappointing season in which baseball’s highest-spending team tumbled from contention by midsummer.

The 67-year-old Showalter said before the 2023 finale against Philadelphia that he will not return next year, and a few minutes later the Mets announced the club had decided on the change. 

New York plans to introduce David Stearns as president of baseball operations on Monday, placing him above general manager Billy Eppler. Showalter’s departure with a season remaining on his three-year contract clears the way for Stearns to pick the next manager.

Showalter is 1,726-1,665 (.509) in 22 seasons as a big league manager with the Yankees, Diamondbacks, Rangers, Orioles and Mets — guiding all those organizations to the playoffs besides Texas.

He’s won four Manager of the Year awards — tied with Hall of Famers Tony La Russa and Bobby Cox for most all-time — and is the only skipper to win the prize with four different teams.

Showalter ranks 19th in major league history in wins, but Gene Mauch (1,902) is the only manager with more who never won a pennant.
