<h2 data-start="597" data-end="637">From Kitchen Idea to National Brand</h2>
<p data-start="638" data-end="1120">The story of Chicken Salad Chick began in Auburn, Alabama, when founder <strong data-start="710" data-end="725">Stacy Brown wanted to create the &ldquo;perfect&rdquo; chicken salad. She quickly realized that no single recipe could please everyone&mdash;some preferred it classic and creamy, while others liked it spicy, fruity, or crunchy. Instead of choosing just one, she built a menu with multiple versions. This creative decision turned into a winning concept, and today the chain has <strong data-start="1073" data-end="1117">hundreds of locations across the country.
