[edit] Trivia

  • In North American Chains purchasing multiple packages of 4 piece nuggets costs less than purchasing 6, 10 or 20 packs.

I'm from the Midwest (Michigan area). I can't be absolutely positive that this applies for every chain the US or North America. If you're from other parts of the country please check out your local menu to see if this applies to your area.


  • So will copulating with them, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea... Miraculouschaos 20:55, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] 1983 Introduction

  • Chicken McNuggets were introduced in the Lawton, Oklahoma area around 1981. This was, I assume, a test market. The McChicken was not available at the locations with McNuggets. McDonald's locations in other areas introduced McNuggets after the original McChicken, but in Southwest Oklahoma, McNuggets have been available, without interruption since 1981. I say this from firsthand experience, thus I've not added it to the article. --Aaron Walden Image:Tsalagisigline.gif 00:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Given that this was twenty some years ago I'm hoping that someone else can confirm my recollection. I believe that when Chicken McNuggets were first introduced in the Seattle Washington area, they were bundled as a five piece McNuggets with a small french fry called "Chicken and Chips".Jsbrugg 05:05, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dietary info

Recently, McDonalds Australia released nine meals that are endorsed by the Heart Foundation and have their (literal) Tick of Approval. One or two of these meals (I'll go check that) include three Mcnuggets and a salad plus a drink of either orange juice or water (again, I'll go check). The Tick means that Mcnuggets must comply with the Heart Foundation's recommendations including having low sodium/low sugar/low fat, which seems to imply that Maccas Australia (if not other countries) have changed their recipe somewhat. (The McChicken burger is also added as one of the nine Tick-approved meals. Note that we Aussies call them burgers, you call them sandwiches). I'm wondering if, when I find the info, it is advantageous to the article to include that-

  • nuggets are approved by the Heart Foundation in small portions
  • possibly there are significent nutritional differences in McNuggets from the US (or the world) than Australia

Naturally, all such inclusions are cited with appropriate resources. Would love to hear other opinions :) Naysie 06:48, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

OK, the McDonalds and the Tick-approved meals are found at http://www.mcdonalds.com.au/HTML/ourFood/tickApprovedMeals.asp# (note that the Heart Foundation is not affliated with McDonalds and all the requirements for getting a food Tick-approved can be found at the Heart Foundation's website). Dietary info for all McDonalds Australia foods can be found at http://www.mcdonalds.com.au/HTML/nutrition/ and are available as PDF downloads. Naysie 06:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
