The only thing "premium" about these strips is the caloric price you pay. Add a large fries and regular soda and this seemingly innocuous chicken meal tops out at 1,710 calories.
Change Your Chicken: 20 McNuggets have the same impact. Instead, choose Mickey D's six-piece offering with BBQ sauce and save yourself 530 calories.

Hi Bonnie- I have read this article, too. I actually made copies of it and I share it with almost everyone who walks in my office. The students find it interesting, too. Women seem to find this info informative and disgusting- the boys just get hungry from the pictures!
Hi Michelle...I tend to side with the women's reaction! Absolutely amazing and disgusting. I am glad you are sharing it too. Maybe these restaurants will wise up. We don't go out that often compared to the rest of America, but when we do we like to go to the smaller, mom & pop type places. Jim is not a fan of what he calls "Formula Restaurants." Me either.
