The $8,000 McNugget

There are no words. hmm

George Washington-Shaped Nugget Sold: That crazy chicken nugget that resembles our first president's profile was sold on eBay for $8,100. The seller bought the nuggets three years ago, stored this one in particular in the freezer, and then decided to auction it off to raise money for a church camp. [NY Post]

No. It's the additive that McD's has been using for years as filler for it's burgers. There was an article in the news about it last month or so. McD's just decided to stop using it because of what's in it.

No wonder everything at mcd's goes from frozen to fryer. Can you imagine what that would do if thawed and came to life.

Exactly. Yuck. They used to mix it with the raw "beef".

In a statement, McDonald's clarified that it stopped using "select lean beef trimmings" — its preferred term for scrap meat soaked in ammonium hydroxide and ground into a pink meatlike paste — at the beginning of last year.

"This product has been out of our supply chain since August of last year," it said.

Seven Million Pounds of “Pink Slime” Beef Destined for National School Lunch Program

McDonald's and Taco Bell have banned it, but now the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is picking up 7 million pounds of beef containing ammonium hydroxide-treated ground connective tissue and meat scraps and serving it up to America's school kids. If you thought cafeteria food was gross before….

According to TheDaily.com, the term "pink slime" was coined by microbiologist Gerald Zirnstein, formerly of the USDA Food Safety Inspection Service. He first saw it being mixed into burger meat when he was touring a Beef Products Inc (BPI) facility in 2002 after an outbreak of salmonella. "Scientists in D.C. were pressured to approve this stuff with minimal safety approval," Zirnstein told The Daily.

"Pink slime," which is officially called "Lean Beef Trimmings," is banned for human consumption in the United Kingdom. It is commonly used in dog and chicken food. Celebrity chef and safe food advocate Jamie Oliver featured the substance and called for its ban on the April 12, 2011 episode of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution, which may have influenced McDonald's to stop using beef patties containing the filler.

Reportedly, Zirnstein and his colleague Carl Custer studied the substance and classified it as a "high risk product." Custer, who worked at the Food Safety Inspection service for 35 years, says, "We looked at the product and we objected to it because it used connective tissues instead of muscle. It was simply not nutritionally equivalent [to ground beef]. My main objection was that it was not meat."
