Guess it'll be burgers from now on for Ed Helms, who is taking on Chick-fil-A over their anti-gay marriage stance.

"Chick-fil-A doesn't like gay people? So lame. Hate to think what they do to the gay chickens! Lost a loyal fan," Helms, who stars in The Office and plays Dr. Stu Price in The Hangover films, tweeted on Wednesday.

The fast-food chicken chain, which does not operate on Sundays, is known for promoting the company founder's Christian values. In a new interview with the Baptist Press, Georgia-based Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy, son of company founder S. Truett Cathy, said he is "guilty as charged" when it comes to accusations that his company is actively opposed to gay marriage.
