This is what's really in a McDonald's chicken nugget.

There’s a pretty disgusting picture that’s been doing the rounds on the Internet, pretty much ever since Google image search was invented.

It has been sold as ‘what’s really inside McDonald’s chicken nuggets’. Which is a pretty repulsive thought.

But, the fine people at the Golden Arches are sick of their interestingly shaped chicken segments’ reputation being tarnished. And they have decided to set the record straight, with this informational video produced by McDonald’s Canada for the Superbowl.

In sum, nuggets are deep fried ground chicken breast. They’re not a health food, sure, but at least they’re not made of pink sludge.

As an aside, let’s talk about what was objectively the best part of that video: So many women in managerial positions! Yeah, women of McDonald’s Canada!

Well, there you go. You need never ask ‘What are McDonald’s chicken nuggets made of?’ ever again.

I'm currently fascinated with the TV ad where 'people in the street' ask questions about Maccas' food. I love the woman who asks furiously, "I'd like to know why the eggs are perfect". What's that about - is there something wrong with having perfect eggs? I don't actually know what she's talking about because I don't eat there but whenever I hear that ad come on I stop whatever I'm doing just to see if this woman is still angry... well of course she is, I KNOW that, but why, why why????

She's never heard of an egg ring and can't fathom how an egg on a muffin can be a perfect circle. Conspiracy theorists would tell you it's an artificial egg manufactured that way, despite the fact you can see them cracking the eggs in the kitchen.

That information (existence of an egg ring) may just change her life! Just imagine if she saw a Thermomix at work!
