Chicago TV had an ad for this, might be b/c McDonald's corp. is here.

But I 2nd the thought that they taste good, but are disgusting and a heart attack waiting to happen.
Gah, I wish food quality is better.

A Chicken McNugget is comprised of, in addition to chicken:

water, salt, modified corn starch, sodium phosphates, chicken broth powder (chicken broth, salt and natural flavoring (chicken source)), seasoning (vegetable oil, extracts of rosemary, mono, di- and triglycerides, lecithin). Battered and breaded with water, enriched bleached wheat flour (niacin, iron, thiamine, mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yellow corn flour, bleached wheat flour, modified corn starch, salt, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, calcium lactate), spices, wheat starch, dried whey, corn starch. Batter set in vegetable shortening. Cooked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, (may contain partially hydrogenated soybean oil and/or partially hydrogenated corn oil and/or partially hydrogenated canola oil and/or cottonseed oil and/or corn oil). TBHQ and citric acid added to help preserve freshness. Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an anti-foaming agent.

Consider it a tasty investment. Spend $299 for 20 pcs, get a chicken head, eat 19 other nuggests, then sue for $100,000. Its better than the annual Monopoly game, and probably twice as likely to, um, er... win :) .

so if there is a limit of 5 orders per customer...... 5 X 20 = 100 nuggets.... surely out of 100 nuggets I can get at least one fried chicken head..... :) I'm there! I'm sure I can get at least enough to finally get that Infinity G35 I want....

-Hex..

(I ate chicken feet in Malaysia.... you think I can sue for that? They did sell them as chicken feet, but there was no warning that they really were chicken feet. Too bad that wasn't here in the US.... our court system would probably give me $10k just for that!)

I doubt this is nationwide. Around here I'd expect them to double the tax on the food for tax day. :disgust:

You don't want to read it before you eat it.

What a rip. I went to my local McDonalds, and they didn't have these nuggets on sale. Of course, they never have any sales. Downtown Minneapolis in Gavidaeii...

*nods* Wish KFC still had their nuggets, they were probably the best out there. Now I have to make due with strips, which granted are decent, they just charge WAY to much for them.
