The McDonald's commercials lie

[Kaido]

I was hungry the other day, so I decided to try McDonald's new crispy chicken tender finger nugget things. I bought the 5-pack. Contrary to the advertised experience, they were neither crispy NOR juicy. They were chewy, in fact.

I went back a day or two later to confirm if this was the case. It was almost exactly the same. I haven't eaten at McDonald's in nearly 8 months. I go back to try some chicken nuggets, nope, I was dissapointed. I need to remember to pack my lunch from now on, hunger strikes own me 🙁

I so want 20 nuggets for $2.99 right now. I can't remember the last time they had that promotion. I think your nuggets suck now because white meat is dryer. :thumbsdown:

I take it you did not ask for the rubber-free ones?

Watch the movie
"Supersize me"
You will never eat there again......

 

[MazerRackham]

DON'T EVEN LOOK AT MY CHICKEN SELECTS, OR I'LL SELECT YO ASZ FOR NATURAL SELECTION!!!

 

[dennisjai215]

Wow, amazing. I had the exact same experience lastnight. I bought the 5 piece. I was expecting Chicken the caliber of a restraunt that was nice and tender, very juicy. What I ended up getting was a near cold, overcooked chicken strip that tasted as though it had been in the freezer for to long. Granted, I know it is McDonalds, but I expected a much higher caliber of chicken. From now on, no more chicken at McD's, i'll just go to KFC for that or something.

I was really dissapointed. 🙁

Every character protrayed in the new McDonalds commercials is a retard. They're all very dense and annoying. Why not just bring back Ronald McDonald or something instead of trying to make MiCkY D's all hip and trendy.

must vary from McDs to McDs, because i thought the chicken selects with ranch sauce were pretty good.

 

[Kelemvor]

Hot Mustard all the way baby. Gotta get good dippin' sauces to complete the nugget experience.

McDonalds sucks? Say it's not so, really, say it, please, aw come on, do it.

Cliff's Notes

[*]McDonalds sucks.

[*]You're a dumbass for ever thinking otherwise. 😛

 

[loic2003]

Using chicken skin reduces the costs of meat. Chicken skin counts as meat. Chicken skin is chewy. McDonalds like to maximize profits.

 

[Anonemous]

is the $2.99 deal back then? haven't had McD for a year or so... but for chicken nuggets I just go to wendy's.

 

[Miramonti]

Mcdonalds is cool. I love globs of trans fats.
