Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It’s what all fast-food chicken is made – things like chicken nuggets and patties. Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it.

Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve — bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this.

There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.

But, hey, at least it tastes good, right?

I bet it's better then eating a Japanese s*** burger or wood pulp seen a few articles lately about how they are allowed to use a certain percentage to bolster foods.

Makes a good argument for raising your own food or buying local.

It was a bad demo. He showed the kids chicken, and then proceeded to transform the rest of the chicken into something edible. Why wouldn't they eat it? lol

It's pressed through a sieve. So larger chunks of tendons and bones get left behind or 'separated'..

Are you a complete idiot or do you lack reading comprehension? I was not questioning the separation claim in snopes but in this thread. Watch out for clue busses, I think they will kill you.

You're not smart are you? It's too hard to say you misunderstood isn't it? I didn't even read the snopes article. I was questioning the OP based on what he posted. Jesus Christ you're dense. Just shut up and go away.

Oh yeah, you first said bones, now entrails. I bet you didn't even read snopes yourself before you first responded. You should just tuck your tail between you legs and roll over.
