I am a brand ambassador for
McDonald’s of Central Arkansas and am being compensated for this post, all
thoughts and opinions though are my own.
McDonald’s serves a lot of chicken! Of course, you already knew that though, I mean, who hasn’t ever tried a McNugget? They have many different types of chicken as well. I just found out they brought back the Southern Style Chicken Biscuit and was so pumped, plus they are 2 for $3!!! I am excited to share with you today TRUTH about the chicken that McDonald’s uses and how they make their McNuggets.
The Chickens
McDonald’s recently released its new antibiotic policy. "McDonalds is committed to using chicken that is not raised with antibiotics important to human medicine. McDonald’s has been working closely with farmers for years to reduce the use of antibiotics in our supply, and are committed to stop using antibiotics important to human medicine in chicken production for McDonald’s USA by March 2017." Statement from McDonald's Corporate office.
The Meat
McNuggets are made using white-meat chicken from the breast,
rib, tender, and grind it with a bit of skin. Even though the meat is formed, it
is 100 percent real chicken. They are formed in four shapes and
partially fried then flashed frozen. And
then fully fried before serving.

Chicken sandwiches are made using
100% real chicken. Each sandwich has its own formula for which meat is used. The grilled chicken uses a breast filet with
NO preservatives that is seared in-house. Crispy sandwich uses a breast filet
as well. The McChicken is a blend of dark and white meat,

Great post!
Yumm the McChicken is one I choose often as well. It really is never as scary as people make it seem. Thank you for sharing I look forward to reading them!
DeleteI love the McChicken. A lot of times I would get a side salad and a McChicken, remove the bread, and make a small chicken salad. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteI like the Southern style chicken sandwich. If we are on road trips with the dogs, we don't hesitate to stop to get the dogs some nuggets!
