You have been served…………with mechanically separated chicken! Over a billion sold!
This is what fast-food chicken nuggets, processed frozen chicken meat, and patties are made of. BARF!!!!!
Here’s the creation process. What they do is take parts of a chicken and put it through this machine that mechanically separate the meat from the bone. Unfortunately, that doesn’t happen. What it does instead is smash EVERYTHING including the bones, eyes and guts making it come out looking like the picture above.
Since this meat is infested with bacteria, it will be soaked in ammonia in order to kill those little critters. But who wants ammonia nuggets? Not I and I’m sure you don’t want any either. So in order to mask the ammonia taste, they season it with a **** load of artificial flavors. [Yup, that will do it]
Right about now, I know what you’re gonna ask. “Hey Bruce? How do they get rid of the freakish pink color?”
Dude? That’s what dye is for. So in order to get people to devour this crap, they dye it with artificial colors in order to give it that white texture.


Here’s the deal with mechanically separated meat. [I’m going to call it MSM for short because I don’t have that much time on my hands.] MSM is a paste like substance that is created by forcing part of an animal carcass into the sleeve of a machine called “Meat Deboner”.
HA! Meat De-BONER!
Ok, where was I? Oh yeah! I was talking about boners the meat deboner machine. So they cram the animal parts into this machine, which grinds up the animal carcasses into a big glob of reddish mush!

In my best Homer Simpson voice:

"Mmmmmm... animal carcasses"..

On a serious note, McD's has been on our ban list for years... can't eat there without getting sick, so why bother?

I assume this is the same process used by any 'nuggets' or patties that look like uniform pieces.. i.e. those frozen chicken patties you can buy in a bag that are like 40% fat?

Nope. My question: hey Bruce? Why is your MFP name Powergirl123?

Exactly... I'm not buying this. We have food sanitation laws for a reason.

Gross. I NEVER eat McDonalds. I didn't even like it as a kid - when we at there I would drench my nuggets in honey just to make them edible. I refuse to eat any chicken that has been disassembled and reassembled into cookie cutter shapes. YUCK.

:sick:

...but wait... there's more

then they take the lovely chicken, dip it in batter and throw it in a deep fryer, replacing all the water with artery-clogging oil

I used to work in the meat packing industry, nearly all processed meat products are the left overs squished in to uniform shape and served up with additives, dyes and flavourings...I dont eat much in the way of processed meats now occasionally a subway salad, and no doubt their meat is squished reformed muck too. Even a lot of cuts of meat you buy has been injected with salt and preservative and water etc...So this doesnt surprise me in the slightest.

Nice article, Bruce.

My question also is: Are you Bruce? Or are you the 20 year old female from Phoenix who cannot spell? As far as McDonald's goes, or pretty much any fast food, we all know it should be avoided, but there are some who will eat it regardless.

McDonald's started using all white meat chicken for their McNuggets in 2003.

I could go for a cheeseburger right about now.
