McD's chicken nuggets are made from chicken scraps, pulverized and made into a paste that is formed into McNuggets. But, they don't use beaks and feet, or bones and cartilage. It has been investigated. Nonetheless, it is still chicken paste, breaded and deep fried. Kids LOVE them. I prefer chicken tenders, which are real pieces of chicken, breaded and fried -- basically boneless fried chicken.

This guy that told me is an accountant, maybe they do use them here. As I said I have no reason to disbelieve him. My grandkids love them, I don't.

We picked up a Frenched rack of lamb for $8.99 a pound, usual price $17.99 a pound. Didn't put them on the menu this week because I figured at that price they'd be the larger American lamb. Nope Australian.

My wife's absolute fave is lamb tandoori cutlets. I think the most she ate was 8 in a sitting? I have 4 racks on the freezer.

My wife french trimmed all our racks in the UK mate after my heart attack. For me the crispy fatty rib bits were my fav. I minced lamb shoulder and added pork fat in the Merguez sosig to defeat her. Mrs Rascal is a tandoori trencherwoman.

"Riceberry (Thai: ข้าวไรซ์เบอร์รี่) is a registered rice variety from Thailand, a cross-breed of Jao Hom Nin (JHN), a local non-glutinous purple rice and Khoa Dawk Mali 105 (hom Mali rice). The variety was created by the Rice Science Center, Kasetsart University, Thailand after four years of research for nutritional properties, anthocyanin stability, and physical and cooking properties. The outcome is a deep purple whole grain rice with softness and a palatable aftertaste. Riceberry has been a popular brown rice substitute due to its health promoting properties. Inducing people to consume more whole grain rice varieties could help ameliorate food-related chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, high blood cholesterol, obesity, and cancers. "

McDonalds got caught in a whirlwind after Jaime Oliver did a series of shows here on childhood obesity, so they disclosed exactly how their McNuggets were made. They are still chicken scraps made into a paste, but no beaks or feet. I don't know how other nuggests are made, exactly, so I don't have any reason to doubt your friend, either.

The beans-and-feet urban myth has been around about as long as the nuggets themselves. I remember it from when I was a teenager, along with the also-false rumor (that I still hear repeated occasionally to this day) that McD's has ground up worms in their burger meat.

McD's is the big player in the fast food industry, and it's ultra-mass-produced food, so they're easy to single out, and everybody loves a good conspiracy-horror story now and again.

I wouldn't care for beans in my chicken nuggets, either. :wink: :D
