1. Enjoy!
The Chicken McNugget, a lab experiment of an entree, larded with ingredients like TBHQ, a flavorless ''stabilizer,'' and Dimethylpolysiloxane, an ''anti-foaming agent,'' is Exhibit A in a lawsuit that could transform the fast-food industry. And it is the McNugget's artificiality -- the judge labeled it a ''McFrankenstein creation'' -- that is putting McDonald's on the legal defensive.

hmmmmmmantifoamingagents.

2. "anti-foaming agent" = CODE WORD for "lip-smackin' good"...
I'd have to say that my love of "anti-foaming agents" in my food comes second only to "machine separated chicken," found in most of the varieties of SPAM other than the "original."

:rofl:

3. I had to vote "other"
as someone once said: "There's only ONE part of a chicken (rooster) that's a 'nugget'".

5. Hoffa is supposedly buried under Giants Stadium
in the Meadowlands. Just FYI.

Also, notice that two of those three dipping sauces are mostly high-fructose corn syrup.

6. Actually, McNuggets are a ripoff of a traditional Japanese food called
"tori karaage."

That was my reaction the first time I tried them: "This is just like tori karaage."
