CHICKEN MCNUGGETS have official names and shapes. Pink slime ++

I don’t care what makes up Chicken McNuggets. I don’t care one lick. In an ideal world, I ate 3,000 of them them a day. That very afternoon, I die after huffing on Chicken McFarts, only to be reborn the next day and do it all over again. So knowing that these delectable little food-things have names? Only makes my affection all the more potent.

Boing Boing:

McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets aren’t just weirdly-shaped forms of “white boneless chicken, water, food starch-modified, salt, seasoning [autolyzed yeast extract, salt, wheat starch, natural flavoring (botanical source), safflower oil, dextrose, citric acid], sodium phosphates, natural flavor (botanical source), water, enriched flour (bleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yellow corn flour, bleached wheat flour, food starch-modified, salt, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, calcium lactate), spices, wheat starch, dextrose, and corn starch.” The shapes actually have official names: ball, bone, bell, and boot. And if you’re in Canada, the “bone” is officially a “bow-tie.” McDonald’s paid for Business Insider to visit their corporate headquarters where they learned all about the McNugget experience from the McDonald’s (Mc)Sensory Team.” (Business Insider)
