About a year ago there was a program where a chef was trying to convince the schools to serve nutritious lunches in the schools that were overweight. They had a clip where he made chicken nuggets from skin BONES, and all kinds of disgusting stuff.
My friends DGS will eat NOTHING BUT chicken nuggets and she wanted him to see that episode. Can any of you remember the chef, or the name of that program? Thanks

Are we talking about McDonald's Chicken Nuggets?

Here are a couple of things I found about them. And you can check on the Internet about other "Natural Flavors" and lots of the many, many food items that can now legally contain MSG and other things we don't want to eat but are.

We go to lots of high schools for blood drives, and it almost makes me cry to see all the flabby teens that are from fat to very obese. Most of them are not up to Morbidly Obese, but a little past the very obese, and even the males are developing breasts. What is frightening about this is watching small children in the summer time when they are wearing tight tee shirts. Lots of them from 6 to 9 years old are also developing breasts, males as well as females, from the hormones most of the companies claim is not in their meat.

Looking back on many of my old pictures of family and friends, (I'm 77 now) I can only see a very few that were overweight, and most of them were crippled. Others all walked and ran, played outdoors all the time the weather let them, and ate slow food at home. Going "Out to eat" was a treat that was as lovely as it was rare, and kids ate what was put in front of them without whining. Or else at home they could sit and stare at the food until they did like it. There was no junk food around all the time then.

I quite easily remember toting a lard pail to school with my lunch in it. It usually was a sandwich with a biscuit and some kind of meat from the farm and a lot of mustard, an apple or home made cookies and sometimes a pint of buttermilk.
