Chicken McNuggets (introduced in June 1980) are a fast food product offered by the restaurant chain McDonald's. They popularized the chicken nugget, which had been invented in the 1950s, and are one of the most popular trademarked items on the McDonald's menu.McNuggets, as they are commonly known, are small pieces of formed chicken that have been battered and deep fried. They are sold in packages of 4, 6, 10, and 20 (6, 9 and 20 in the United Kingdom). In Australia, they are also available in 3 packs in Happy meals and Heart Foundation approved Tick healthy meals. They come with a choice of various flavors of dipping sauce.

Chicken breast, a serving of brown rice and broccoli are roughly the same amount. Which do you think is the better choice?

One drink could pack the 500 to 600 calories of a healthy dinner of chicken breast, rice and vegetables, said Dana Wilkinson, nutrition research co-ordinator at the University of Alberta. A daily double-double or low-fat latte adds up to an extra 17 pounds of fat in one year.
