OC I 100% agree it is false advertising and if the product is more other stuff than chicken should not legally be called chicken.

We do need better labeling regulations and advertising rules for lots of things food and other things.

It's a restaurant or a fast food place advertising and taking money from you for one thing and handing over something else.
If I have ordered and paid for grilled chicken breast, I have a right to expect that I am getting just that.
It may be a crappy factory chicken breast, but still just meat.
Once you stretch that by adding + - 50% of something else, deconstructing the whole mess and re-combine it to look more or less like chicken breast, it's downright fraud.
Amen!!! from an Atheist :)

That crap that chicken nuggets is made out of is gross too. You can always tell a fake piece of meat, when it looks like a compressed piece of cardboard.

I love eating a sub... but only the cold cut ones. I know they are mostly nitrated old 'boar' meat.... but also love the mountains of fresh veggies you can load them up with.

Pizza is good too, lol. Pepperoni loaded with veggies.

OMG it was the only fast food joint I would eat at. Never liked the texture of the chicken there so always stayed with the beef. Now worried that they screwed around with that too.

So I see Wendy's and A+W came out on top and now A+W is rerunning their "chicken taste test" sandwich ads. When the sun shines....

I'm on the road today (Lou driving) looking for some land away from IWT's.
Packed the food we need. Did stop for a coffee at some little cafe and finally on the way home from Blue Mountain.

Mmmmmm grapes!

Have to watch out for the veggies in these places. They put so much chemical crap on them to pop the colour and to make them crisp beyond reality. Me and the white throne are close buddies when it comes to eating at a place that uses that stuff. Subway was one of the few places I didn't react to. Wendy's, MacDonalds and A&W are on my no no list.

Well, any ground beef anyone buys, whether its in the grocery store, or thru the fast food chains is going to go thru irradiation.

Yummy. The less I have done with my food the better. So so glad I grow my own meat....
