McDonald's has new tenders so science must needs I try and review:

Summary: whytho-howtho.

They aren't bad taste wise, but they are sloppy and their box sucks. Product didn't come with fork or wet naps. I'm not convinced the sauce is necessary. Clean nugs dunked in sauce just fine.
Crunchy texture wasn't bad but bites here and there had awkward air gaps between breading and meat.
They aren't big, but they are expensive.

I'd like them in the form of a sandwich.

Verdict: Not bad, but value and convenience is off.

I tried them as well. Mine came with a fork and knife thing. Packaging rates an f, very messy. Flavor i solid but the coating is inconsistent because McDonald's employees. There are something I'll get again and I'm even craving another go, but they are to expensive for what they are

I ripped side of box and reached in. The way lid opens normally begs splattering

that's been the problem with literally every form of tender that McD's has ever tried putting out.

My wife used to make them for our deli and they were always pretty great. They were always smaller wings but she'd put any sauce you could find on them if you provided it. And that was the day I tried Dave's insanity wings...

Tried the steak and egg stacker yesterday from Taco bell, got 2 of them. For being $2 each, they are really good and pretty damned filling. Definitely worth buying

And what kinda faggotry has infested this thread, had to double check that I was actually in the Shitty Food We Love thread

if you wanna break down mcdee nuggets vs. value, it takes about 28 nuggets to get a pound, a 20pop is 5bucks so we'll just round it off to $6/lb.

going off this

meat in a nugget (bird meat) is boobs/boob meat, tenderloin and some skin.

at 3.23/lb

(i'm using tyson, cuz that mcdees is a tyson chicken plant)

mixed with
CHICKEN MCNUGGETS
Ingredients: White Boneless Chicken, Water, Vegetable Oil (Canola Oil, Corn Oil, Soybean Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil), Enriched Flour (Bleached Wheat Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Bleached Wheat Flour, Yellow Corn Flour, Vegetable Starch (Modified Corn, Wheat, Rice, Pea, Corn), Salt, Leavening (Baking Soda, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Calcium Lactate, Monocalcium Phosphate), Spices, Yeast Extract, Lemon Juice Solids, Dextrose, Natural Flavors.

then, batter, breader and final tempura batter.

doesn't seem all that crazy in price.

Had a poor friend try to get me to buy him a pizza so he could eat for a few days. Told him a pack of chicken and rice would go a lot further than a pizza and he told me forget it he'd ask someone else. Some people man

Even more heavenly on fresh bakery breads and soft pretzels in Europe. Of all the tragedies of awful american food, generally fresh good quality breads is a big one. And no, the sorta fresh shit in the grocery store has nothing on real deal.

I like quality bread but I live by myself and it goes bad so quickly. And now that I rarely work from home I can't even eat produce fast enough.

I had the jalapeno king from BK today. It's pretty good. I think the quality will really rely on them cooking the bacon to a nice crispy texture. It needs the crunch. It had some nice heat from the jalapenos, too, and the cheese and sauce were flavorful. However, at over eleven dollars for the meal, I feel like I should have just gone to five guys and gotten a better burger with more and better fries.

The Homestyle Chicken sandwich from MCD is the shit. I find myself getting it more and more since it's across the street and cheap.
