Honestly, I would be happy there's evidence its actually chicken.

It's bird anyway. Can't rule out seagull.

Pluck it out and carry on, it's gonna taste the same

Reporting that you found a what looks like a human finger nail in your chicken nugget, then discovering that you were only half correct…

u/massvapor1 1d ago

Came to say this.

u/MeatprintPapi__ 1d ago

Well at least you know it was real chicken I guess 😭

Decoy feather

u/mccorml11 1d ago

Doesn’t mean it’s chicken just that it’s bird

OP you're not going to believe where chicken nuggets come from

u/BojackWorseman13 1d ago

Nuggets?

u/Doodiecarrier 1d ago

Nuggetland specifically but ya

u/MrZephy 1d ago

Remarks like this pmtfo. Like no shit but nobody wants to eat the fucking feathers

2

u/thecosmicjoke69813 1d ago

So just pull it out…….

0

u/MrZephy 1d ago

Do you not understand basics of food safety? It should be thrown out not eaten.

2

u/thecosmicjoke69813 1d ago

You ever slaughter a chicken?

1

u/MrZephy 1d ago

That has nothing to do with the topic of food safety and finding a foreign object

2

u/Zealousideal-Sea-684 1d ago

it’s a feather, not exactly foreign to chicken.

0

u/MrZephy 1d ago

It’s foreign to my digestive system

1

u/No_Trouble_3588 1d ago

Yeah, but this happens from time to time with factory processed foods. It is not going to harm anyone in any way. The sodium content is more harmful than an errant feather.

1

u/MrZephy 1d ago

I used to eat processed garbage like this multiple times a day for years and not once have I found a foreign material in my food. Obviously that’s just me, but if this is happening “from time to time” there is a problem with their inspection line, how do you know the failure ends with a small feather?

u/APerfectlyRoundDuck 1d ago

I said something similar when a buddy of mine got mad I poured bull semen on his steak

2

u/BigBubbaChungus 1d ago

It’s SOOOOO GOOD when it’s fresh! Like steaming hot straight off the tap!

u/StudPuffin_69 1d ago

And called it macaroni

1

u/Green_Rabbit-1234 1d ago

No, that’s the hat. Feather in the nugget is called something else, I think.

u/Ready_Mistake812 1d ago

What letter is that?

u/No-Acanthisitta8803 1d ago

ITS TRYING TO FLY AWAY! 🤣

u/baobao-er 1d ago

Nah i feel you OP, the nugs are the last things i want to find feathers and bones remnants. I would advise youto report that to the manufacturer with the batch number

5

u/dufo7 1d ago

So dinosaurs did have feathers

5

u/SignificanceTop8281 1d ago

Real chicken?
Hell yeah, brother.
That’s a win.

u/Tee_i_am 1d ago

Proof chickens evolved from dinosaurs.

u/MaeQueen42 1d ago

"Yeah, I plucked the chickens extra fast 'cause I knew I was seeing you tonight. There might just be a little feather in your nuggets or a little bit of meat inside of your pillow."

u/PaleAcanthaceae1175 1d ago

Everyone is being kind of a bitch about this post but yeah that's a little unpleasant.

Semi-rare quality assurance failure. You can report it. The company might offer you some small compensation like a coupon for replacement.

u/Radiant-Noise6415 1d ago

They do say dinosaurs had feathers

u/Niptaa 1d ago

And what letter is that?

u/Tripptt69 1d ago

At least you know its real chicken. Feather is a good thing

u/not4eating 1d ago

F in the chat?

u/Djkatman29 1d ago

I got a feather in a nugget at Cookout once like 7 years ago. I also posted it on reddit.

u/No_Trouble_3588 1d ago

The hero we all needed. Thank you for your service.

3

u/Infamous-Squirrel949 1d ago

It's not burned, no heat marks at all

2

u/justnegateit 1d ago

Microwave? Does feather burn in microwave?

2

u/Automatic_Actuator_0 1d ago

But they are precooked

1

u/justnegateit 1d ago

Huh

1

u/Automatic_Actuator_0 1d ago

Read the package. They are fully cooked.

2

u/justnegateit 1d ago

Yeah, huh with a full stop. As in, I'm stumped.

u/Automatic_Actuator_0 1d ago

The factory would have likely fried them for about 30 seconds and then finished them in an oven before freezing them.

“Please welcome! Feathers in my nuggets!!!”

u/StressFantastic5317 1d ago

It's made that way to tickle your nose as you attempt to bite it

2

u/CookieWifeCookieKids 1d ago

Im not even mad at it. You got actual real chicken!!

2

u/Photoshopdoge 1d ago

I’m sorry but everyone in the comments telling OP to stop complaining about the feather because “it’s evidence of real chicken” needs to quiet down. You guys know what? It’s almost like this sub was made for mildly infuriating things like finding something in the food that should’ve been removed during processing 🤦.

u/Biomax315 1d ago

People shocked to learn that they are eating animals.

3

u/waaz16 1d ago

God forbid he died for you

3

u/Automatic_Actuator_0 1d ago

I have serious doubts that a feather would look that fresh after being baked or fried.

-1

u/Bad-Luck-Guy 1d ago

It was microwaved.

3

u/Automatic_Actuator_0 1d ago

Note how the package says they are fully cooked? They are not microwaved there.

ETA: my research says they are usually fried for about 30 seconds to set the breading and then baked the rest of the way.

u/Aggressive-Noise-638 1d ago

2

u/DopeyCalliope 1d ago

At least you know it's not rat or cat

2

u/kingston-twelve 1d ago

It doesn't rule out rat and/or cat, just proves there's some type of bird in there as well

2

u/justnegateit 1d ago

Bird meat has feather. This is why me no eat meat.

1

u/SayWhat71 1d ago

At least it's not artificial

1

u/Butt_Stallion_Milk 1d ago

Would have been even weirder if it was in the letter F

u/berlenba 1d ago

Bonus

u/WoolBearTiger 1d ago

It's fresh!

u/Which-Break5673 1d ago

I would be so surprised !

u/Doesnt-Speed 1d ago

Well at least we know it’s clucks

u/Lazy-Explanation7165 1d ago

u/SiriHowDoIAdult 1d ago

Shit like this is why I became vegan. I still prepare meat/dairy etc for my wife and daughter but I can't eat it anymore myself

1

u/Slarty8artfast 1d ago

More scientifically accurate that way.

1

u/BaerMinUhMuhm 1d ago

At least you know it's real chicken

1

u/Odd_Fox_3899 1d ago

Actual evidence of a chicken or even a bird.. wow… I’d be happy to know at least it’s actual meat..

1

u/matthewgt 1d ago

That's the garnish.

1

u/Common_Senze 1d ago

I dont think that feather would look like that after frying it or baking it.

1

u/jjmawaken 1d ago

You won the prize!

u/Greed_Sucks 1d ago

1st world problem

u/CntBlah 1d ago

So they actually use real chicken meat!?!?

u/pixeltweaker 1d ago

Oh no, not remnants of the chicken.

-1

u/Greendale_Official 1d ago

Want to freak out? See how they're made. Every one of those nuggies was attached to a disgusting bird before being shaped into Dino shapes.

OP, get a grip.

5

u/SuddenInformation896 1d ago

I would also be mildly infuriated if there was a seed in an apple smoothie

-2

u/Greendale_Official 1d ago

Obviously. And clearly the only way to remedy this would be to post online to a bunch of strangers who can't help you.

4

u/SuddenInformation896 1d ago

If only there was a place to post mildly infuriating things… could you imagine?

0

u/Greendale_Official 1d ago

Wait. Were you being serious about the apple seed in your smoothie? 😏

u/Photoshopdoge 1d ago

I didn’t know it being real chicken meant that you couldn’t be upset with the quality.

u/kikiacab 1d ago

Oh no it’s chicken

-5

u/Jerry-Beans 1d ago

How old are you and why are you still buying the food for children?

5

u/Weird_Decision7090 1d ago

It had a bogo deal. Would you be happy if they were normal shaped instead?

1

u/cans-of-swine 1d ago

The dino shaped are the best. 

-1

u/Jerry-Beans 1d ago

No I just find it interesting when grown people choose the Dino shaped nuggets over the regular ones, unless as you stated - it was a deal. I picture you eating cereal with an airplane spoon going “vrroooooom comin in for landing!!”

5

u/Liathano_Fire 1d ago

Excuse you, but I still buy Dino nuggets. I actually just bought spooky nuggets that are shaped like bats amd ghosts.

Never too old for whimsical food.

-1

u/Ill_Eggplant_420 1d ago

Excuse you, but no still buy Dino nuggies

4

u/PaleAcanthaceae1175 1d ago

We got the fun police over here.

-1

u/Jerry-Beans 1d ago

Yeah having my chicken nuggets shaped like Dino’s is so much Fun. Weeeeeeeeeee!

-1

u/know__name 1d ago

In no way would this upset me. As far as nuggets go, knowing its real chicken and not some amalgamation, I would be fucking thrilled.

4

u/PaleAcanthaceae1175 1d ago

Your nuggets are always actual chicken but they are also always an amalgamation. They remove the good cuts then heat, de-bone, and blend the remaining scrap meat, tendons, and skin into a paste which is formed and cooked. This is blended with stabilizing agents like cellulose to give it texture and stability.

Unless the packaging states otherwise, it's almost entirely chicken, salt, and cellulose. They aren't putting mystery stuff in there because using scrap animal parts that they were already butchering is cheaper than whatever you were imagining it was.

1

u/know__name 6h ago

Then why dont the feathers ever appear in the middle of the nugget? Always protruding the breading leading me believe its not some ground up mix but rather actual cuts of chicken.

u/ips1023 1d ago

THANK GOODNESS there’s not a face on your chicken nuggies

u/BMinus973 1d ago

Are you asking why there my be a feather in your chicken??

u/themartianG 1d ago

Ewe. Ive gotten buffalo wings with feathers still on them.

u/Past-Bicycle5959 1d ago

But buffalo don't have wings...or feathers!

u/romcarlos13 1d ago

they do if they drink redbull

u/Oops_All_Bans 1d ago

Buffalos don't have feathers, silly.

u/ambid3xtrous 1d ago

Frighteningly horrible excuse for food has a wee little feather. Guess you have to explain to lil' Trevor where nuggies come from.
