This reminds of Jim Gaffigan. "Do you know what they do to that chicken? No, but it's delicious!"

Glad you liked I use panko crumbs vs. bread crumbs but whatever and I use the whole egg but again whatever.

My son brought them for lunch today and again his teacher said he loves them.

I did use Itilian Bread Crumbs and now that I look back you did say egg yolks. Not sure who liked them more me or my daughter.

Make them again and mix them in Buffalo Wild Wing sauce, you can buy their sauces at the restaurant, SO GOOD!

You mix the sauce in with the eggs?

I'm glad something so positive was able to come out of such a negative thread. That chicken nugget recipe looks delicious.

I cooked some with my daughter for dinner and the wife and I ate most of them. Time to cook another batch.

What McDonald's chicken nuggets really contain

Pretty good article for all the McNugget Hatters

Im all about people eating healthy on their own accord, and I think its good that Americans seem to be waking up about the fact of eating healthier. But at the end of the day if you eat too much organic food vs. too much processed food youre probably still gonna be fat and therefore unhealthy. I don’t think there is anything wrong with eating processed foods that are deep fried in delicious trans-fat oil, and then coated with salt, its letting that become the staple in your diet or eating too much of it that is bad. I would bet that eating 2000 calories of McDonalds every day is a whole lot better for your overall health then eating 3000 calories of organic food.

Also I kind of like the idea of eating mechanically separated chicken, it makes me feel like im a Native American in the old days when they would use every part of the buffalo (except chicken in our case). Would it be better to just use the premium cuts of meat from the chicken and tease starving counties with scraps that could be turned into food?

I just want to point out what i originally said and the article i was referencing. I actually try and eat somewhat healthy. But i also like fast food and in my opinion its not that bad for you and it absolutely is not as bad for you as a lot of people make it out to be. However eating too much of it is bad for you. Just like eating too much food from your organic raw bar. If you eat too much of anything odds are you are obese. If you youre obese odds are you are unhealthy.

Again I think being obese due to over eating “healthy” foods is worse for your body and more unhealthy then not being obese due to eating the recommended amount of calories of “less healthy” foods, ie McDonalds.

Also heres an absolutely awesome analogy I came up with…..

Your car is running really crappy because you put way too much oil in the engine. So you drain all the oil and put a lighter weight recommended oil in, but still way too much. Turns out your car still runs crappy, but maybe a little better. Now if you put in the recommend amount of oil it runs really really well no matter what weight oil you use. If you use the recommended lighter weight oil it maybe runs a little better but your engine might last a few thousand miles more, so you go ahead and do it because you really like your car.

So sure the recommended lighter weight oil makes your car last a little longer but only if you use the right amount. Using the right amount of oil is the most important thing to keep your car running top notch. Using the preferred weight is secondary

That was a awful analogy if you run any oil other then your recommend oil weight in your car over time the engine will suffer.

Back to McD's lets throw out the calories and fat and talk QUALITY. you really really need to watch this film and then come back to me and say you still want to eat McD's. I think you will end up choosing the 1k calorie bathroom scum over McD's after watching this.

Official Food, Inc. Movie Site - Hungry For Change?


At this point I feel like I am talking to a 60 year old smoker how refuses to believe cigarette smoke is bad for him and insist that everyone of his grandparents from WV lived to 100 and smoked every day so it can't be bad for me.

I watch less movies then anyone i know my age, but i wouldnt mind watching this. But i doubt it will be anytime soon.

Also on a personal note i dont drink milk. I used to put down a good gallon to 2 gallons of vitamin d a week, up until about 3-5 years ago. Then one day i started thinking about milk production and read into it. I think something like 80-90 percent of all commercial milking cows are pregnant at the time they are giving milk. Then you mix thousands of cows milk together so you get a very high percentage of high pregnancy hormone cows milk. It just doesnt sit well with me, especially with the amount i was drinking. Plus the idea of consuming another animals bodily fluids doesnt sit well with me.

I switch to vanilla flavored soy milk and was putting down at least 2 gallons a week of it (taste great and also refreshing), when a roommate asked if i thought all that soy was good for me.... So i looked it up and soy is extremely high in estrogen, which is very difficult for the male body to break down. There are a potential side affects from males ingesting too much estrogen, including man boobs. Also there is some speculation on high estrogen foods on young kids, that parents may want to look into. Either way like milk i gave soy up cold turkey.

The i looked into raw milk. There are a lot a odd laws when it comes to milk in most states, i think mainly because of dairy lobbyist. But you can do something in VA called cowsharing. You buy a share of a cow and are entitled to a share of the milk it produces. You get pure raw cow milk, which is supposed to be absolutely delicious. I didnt do it because its pretty expensive (as bad as my organic soy milk habbit), but its also not all that liquid (pun intended!) - you cant really sell your cow share very easily. Also if you cow dies, so does your share. But if you cow gives birth you are entitled to part of the calf.

So now i do almond milk vanilla flavored. Its great with cereal but i cant suck it down like i could milk or soy milk, I probably do a half gallon a week. Not sure where i was going with all this..... just part of my daily struggles i guess.
