McDonald's using Chicken Mcnuggets to kill people

[Swordsoffreedom]

That feeling of nausea and dizzyness after not eating there for a while,
It's not just the chicken nuggets but I know this funky feeling

Why isn't Rassah in here cheerleading for McDonald's?

Chicken nuggets have wood cellulose in them.

From wikipedia:
Ingredients

As of October 9, 2010, the ingredients within the United States 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). Dimethylpolysiloxane is added as an antifoaming agent.[4] McDonald's ingredients can vary outside of the US.

Now they say that there is no mechanically separated meat (pink slime) in Mcnuggets and it is pure white meat chicken.  I am not sure if I believe that.

The amount of crap they put in Fast food is actually scary ._.

Jesus christ they're just NUGGETS, if you were binge eating on nuggets like everyday then yes it would possibly endanger your health. Fast food is fast food.

The terrorist organization illuminati (also known as the Bilderberg Group) own McDonald's.

That's a Kroc!    McD is publicly traded - I hold shares tucked away in one of the Vanguard mutual funds.  The dividends rock.

Notice the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation holds almost 1% of the company.

If you think the chicken is bad, try the fish.

wow, first foray into the politics / society forum.

I am 34 or 35 or something and I eat rather healthy these days (drank a coconut / granola + almond milk for breakfast)

but this thread totally makes me want to go get some McNuggets. 

fucking weird...

Neat tidbit, before chicken wings became a popular food item in the 1980s, chicken wings were considered scrap meat, like the necks. At the time, the rumors that McDonalds threw an entire chicken into a grinder and used that slurry in the nuggets was more or less true. Fairly recently, those scrap meats have become more expensive than chicken breasts, so now you will see all of the fast food commercials proudly boasting that their products are made with 100% sliced chicken breast, or white meat chicken, but in reality, thats because its more expensive to feed consumers that chicken that was thrown through the grinder. So just remember, they didn't improve their food quality because they found it was in the consumers best interest, it just became cheaper and more advertising friendly to feed people the people food.

Well except Tacobell. Going off on a tangent here, but Tacobell is an amusing creature. They use Grade D meat in their taco meat, meaning that it is just barely safe for humans to eat. However there have been some new large brand dog foods, that are now using Grade C meat, granted it is a more expensive dog food, but it is dog food that you can find at big retailers, not some specialty shop for nutjobs that spend more on dog food than they do on their mortgage/rent. So next time you are sitting with your dog, eating a taco from tacobell, just think, he may be looking up at you, judging you... before walking off to lick his crotch.

What are Americans supposed to eat instead of McDonalds? "Healthy food"?

It's worse than that. The reason mechanically separated meat is more expensive now is that they're no longer allowed to throw the whole carcass into the grinder, due to the risk of disease. Instead, they now throw in just the breast and call it "100% chicken breast", as though they're doing something different, when it's exactly the same process only with fewer parts of the animal.

That's not true at all. USDA beef grades simply refer to the age of the beast when it was slaughtered, nothing more. Grade D means it was 6-8 years old, Grade C is 3.5-6 years, and so on. It's all equally safe (or not, depending on your point of view) for human consumption. Dog meat typically isn't graded at all, and in most cases can't even be legally identified as "meat", thanks to such tasty ingredients as "meat byproducts" (bone, hooves, fur, and other "non-meat" parts of the animal) and "meat meal" (recycled roadkill, zoo animals, diseased livestock, former pets - yes, your dog is quite possibly a cannibal).

Damn! Tricked by those fancy dog food commericals again. You are right, no more dog food for me then

If they can take a bite out of it, more power to them; at that point, it's hard as stone.
