Chef and restaurant owner Andrew Gruel discusses Gov. Gavin Newsom signing a landmark fast food workers bill despite concern it will drive up consumer costs on ‘Fox Business Tonight.’
Chick-fil-A's test kitchen is rolling out a variety of pizza flavors, including some topped with its fan-favorite sauce and signature chicken nuggets.
The pizza flavors will be available at one Chick-fil-A location — at the chain's test kitchen in College Park, Maryland.
The Maryland test kitchen — dubbed "Little Blue Menu" — offers fanatics the chance to try new innovations.
Chick-fil-A said that the restaurant is inspired by Truett Cathy, the founder of the Atlanta-based restaurant in 1946.

Now, Chick-fil-A is introducing an assortment of pizza pies.

Among the options is a cheese pizza with chicken nuggets, pickles and Chick-fil-A sauce, a variation with Buffalo and ranch sauces, and a more traditional pizza with toppings like pepperoni and mushrooms.

The new menu items came as Chick-fil-A noticed that fans were getting creative with menu items. (Chick-fil-A)
The new menu option in the test kitchen came as creative Chick-fil-A lovers and bloggers created recipes for people to try at home.
Bloggers shared on social media platforms to create the pizza at home.
They suggested that people buy a 12-count nugget, large fries, Chick-fil-A sauce alongside cheese and a pre-made pizza crust.
"As an innovation kitchen brand, we are constantly looking at what our customers want to better serve them," Stuart Tracy, senior culinary lead developer, said in a statement. "We've noticed our customers getting creative with Chick-fil-A ingredients on pizzas at home, so, we've decided to jump on board! Your taste buds already know the flavors, so it’s love before first bite."
