Sometimes, you just can't beat a McDonald's.

Whether you go for a juicy Big Mac or opt for a  good 'ol wrap, it's safe to say the fast food restaurant saves us after a hangover, or just on days where you need a mighty fill. And while we've all had the chicken nuggets, there has been many rumours in the past about how exactly the nuggets are made. Basically - whatever goes... bones and all. Well, one Youtuber called My Virgin Kitchen went inside McDonald's factory for a day to see how everything was done - and one stop he made was to the nugget station. Now, the video is sponsored by McDonald's, but it all seems pretty legit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWsQmYD-UvA From the 10 minute video, Barry shows us that it's only the chicken fillets that are used. They're inspected first before going through a grinder to get minced. "The chicken breast comes in and is inspected by hand before being turned into chicken mince. Now the folks at McDonald's are happy to show [this process]. "It's exactly the same thing [as mincing chicken at home], just on a bigger scale. Just chicken breast ground up and then marinated. "Yes, marinated for extra flavour. It is then compressed and flattened to make pressing the nugget shapes achievable. There are a variety of stages here, [including] a gentle breadcrumb and batter, then flash frying, before going through a slow freezer. Then they're ready to be bagged up." So... yeah, that's basically it. Not as manky as we thought after all.
