    I eat haggis. Guts!!! So yummy!
    I eat sausages! It contains a lot of scrap stuff!

    I also eat heats and livers....still guts!!

    It's just minced up. Yeah maybe they add a lot of other stuff like preservatives etc,but just cos they add "everything" doesnt mean it's disgusting.

    That is gross, but if I want McDs i'll go. I saw "Supersize Me" and went to McD's right after.

    That made me laugh out loud!

    FDA doesn't give a ____ about the consumers, its all about money & politics, watch Food Inc, you just might change how you think.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending McDonald's, but this image is not what the description states.

    Hoax:

    http://www.thatsnonsense.com/view.php?id=1478&keywords=McDonalds Chicken McNuggets Mechanically Separated Chicken Photo

    Even if the picture isn't what it looks like, I have watched SuperSize Me, and the describe the SAME thing. Old chickens are mashed up, beaks/eyes, guts, feet, everything!! And then used to make nuggets. NASTY!

    Just to let you all know, whether that pic is a hoax or not, msm's are used in pretty much any and everything... not just McDonalds... next time you pick up some processed meat items from the grocery store, check out the ingredients. If they list MSM or MSMP it's the same thing! (and that's mechanically separated meats or mechanically separated meat products)
    Any and everything eh...right. Alarmism is funny.

    If you continue reading, I clearly state "if they list MSM or MSMP..." (which admittedly is a typo, should be MSP)...

    Take THAT, nay-sayer, take THAT!

    Things like this reconfirms my vegetarianism.......

    I'm not going to bash vegetarians on here, they're people too, but I don't think it's fair to compare this to living an omnivorous lifestyle. :P

    Just tell yourselves that you're all classier than McDonald's or Taco Bell. Your bodies deserve better than the pre-digested garbage that those places hand you through the window.

    Except for In-N-Out...

    Search the forums. There were at least 2 other threads that have this topic. It is being beat into the ground.

    Didn't we just do this?
    Far too many times. Not to mention that for any item people want to fear, there is a 'documentary' on the subject to enforce the unfounded feelings of fear.

    Because eating a 5,000 calorie a day diet of any food will cause you to gain weight and not just fast food.

    YEP! The act of mincing various parts of an animal is not the problem. The problem stems from the preservatives and chemicals that are being used. Not to mention the quality of the meat in its original state. Cultures have been eating ALL parts of the animal for-damn-near-ever. It's elitist of us to think that it's beneath us simply because we have a Whole Foods down the street. </soapbox>

    Agree with this as well... This is one of those "friend of a friend" stories, but I know someone who knows someone whose mom works for the FDA, and she told me how the lady was forced to approve something because it had a lot of "commercial backing" (ie. they were paid to say it was fda approved)... We were talking about those birth control pills that give you your period 3 or 4 times a year* when she told me that, but I'm sure it's safe to say this goes across the board. Either way, don't use only 1 source for your info!

    i also find it a little disconcerting that it's being packaged straight into a cardboard box...

    McDonald's chicken tastes so much different since all this scandalous stuff came about ... you can tell they use real(er) chicken than before. Click the link above. Same goes for Taco Bell ... they're beef doesn't taste as good anymore now that they removed the sand, lol
