I like how the author gave advise on how to cut back on feeding your kids nuggets.
But left out the real golden nugget of advice to “STOP f**king eating them!!”
I want a pic of the girl. WHat does a 17yr old with a solid life diet of chicken nuggets look like?
Vegans and veg nuts are gona have a field day with this [/quote]
Actually I’m pretty sure there are more corn based ingredients than actual meat in those things by a long shot.[/quote]
Edit: I am really curious how you were so sure about the ingredients without ever looking it up.
From Chicken McNuggets - Wikipedia
Ingredients
As of October 9, 2010, the ingredients are as follows: Chicken, water, salt, sodium phosphates. Battered and breaded with bleached wheat flour, water, wheat flour, modified food starch, salt, spices, wheat gluten, paprika, dextrose (sugar), yeast, garlic powder, rosemary, partially hydrogenated soybean oil and cottonseed oil with mono- and diglycerides, leavening (sodium acid pyrophosphate, baking soda, ammonium bicarbonate, monocalcium phosphate), natural flavor (plant source) with extractives of paprika. Fried in vegetable oil (Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil with TBHQ and citric acid added to preserve freshness). Dimethylpolysiloxane, a silicone derivative[4] is added as an antifoaming agent.[5] McDonald’s ingredients can vary outside of the United States.[/quote]
Guess that’s what I get for not researching first. Was I while ago I read someplace that all the binders and coatings and all that were a lot of corn products, aside from the chickens being fed mostly corn. Not sure it’s any better that they’re mostly wheat, fat and mechanically separated chicken. I’ll still stay the hell away from them.[/quote]
I’d say the wheat is negligible but fatty and salty for sure and not exactly healthy
But not as bad as people make them out to be IMO.
But I only picked on your post because I hear people say a lot of crazy things about what is and what isn’t in McDonald’s food that is often false. I was recently told that the eggs in McMuffins weren’t real eggs, which is just silly.
