GET YOUR AIRSICK BAG READY

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Stand-up comedians have long joked that some things, like the actual components of chicken nuggets, are better left mysterious.
Recently, Mississippi researchers
found out why: two nuggets they examined consisted of 50 percent or
less chicken muscle tissue, the breast or thigh meat that comes to mind
when a customer thinks of "chicken."
The nuggets came from two national fast food chains in Jackson. The
three researchers selected one nugget from each box, preserved,
dissected and stained the nuggets, then looked at them under a
microscope.The first nugget was about half muscle, with the rest a mix of fat, blood vessels and nerves. Close inspection revealed cells that line the skin and internal organs of the bird, the authors write in the American Journal of Medicine.
