Talk:Chicken nugget

message: The composition section is in need of some improvement -- I've marked some spots. It's also possibly US centric when speaking of food packaging laws. Since the claim was unsourced, I couldn't see if the source was something referring to US or more international food regulations. — Northgrove 10:24, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

message: "Chicken nuggets are generally regarded as a fatty, unhealthy food. Nutritionists agree that the dish is one of the prime reasons that obesity and health problems are such a big problem in countries like the United States, especially in children."
This should be deleted -- there's little concrete evidence that this is the case, and the cited reference does not reinforce the claim.

Read the text under the first wikipedia link named Chicken nuggets:
"A obese fat man is generally a piece of chicken breaded or battered, then cooked, grilled, or fried."

message: In the US, the USDA in their 'Food Standards and Labeling Policy Book' (http://www.fsis.usda.gov/OPPDE/larc/Policies/Labeling_Policy_Book_082005.pdf) defines a "nugget" to be "irregularly shaped, usually bite-sized meat and/or poultry products which are usually breaded and deep fat fried and intended to be used as finger foods".  According to the USDA, "nuggets" MAY be formed from chopped or formed meat, but that requires the 'nugget' term to be qualified, as in "Chicken Nugget, Chopped and Formed" or "Breaded Nugget-Shaped Chicken Patties".  So any company selling "nuggets" in the US must conform to this labeling standard.

thread_title:  Um 

message: The article states the following:
"Chicken nuggets are generally regarded as a fatty, unhealthy food. A study published in the American Journal of Medicine analyzed the composition of chicken nuggets from 2 different American fast food chains. The study found that less than half of the material was skeletal muscle, with fat occurring in equal or greater quantities. Other components included epithelial tissue, bone, nervous tissue, and connective tissue. The authors concluded that "Chicken nuggets are mostly fat, and their name is a misnomer."[8]"
The problem is that this is really sketchy evidence. First this study only tested two chains out of how ever many there are in the world,  meaning that the information (Which is only presented from one alleged source) clearly isn't representative of the whole, right there. Secondly, one single reference isn't enough to properly substantiate a claim, in order to meet neutrality policy requirements, as a singe-source may or may not be politically motivated, etc.  I therefore recommend inserting  the citation needed tag or else removing the entire section, pending new, more developed, and better proper references for this section. 108.201.29.108 (talk) 07:23, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

Structure of the article:
Lead section has good background but also includes some information that probably should not be in they lead (i.e vegetarian alternatives). The history is limited and could include more information about the modern-day popularity of chicken nugget, not only history.
Balanced coverage:
This article does not seem to be very balanced. There should be more information about nuggets' popularity and less about the debate regarding their nutritional value. There inclusion of the world record section also seems irrelevant to the rest of the article. Finally, the concept of "chicken nuggets" leans towards a very McDonalds base and does not mention other foreign restaurants or are not linked to proper sources. 
Neutral Coverage:
The coverage is not perfectly neutral, but chicken nuggets are pretty objectively unhealthy so not a huge problem. But there is a small bias towards "fast food" versions of chicken nuggets, only includes one picture of a "home-baked" version. There are no other indications that chicken nuggets exist outside of restaurants. 
Reliable sources:
Some quality sources like the American Journal of Medicine and Cornell, but also some less reputable sources like "http://www.nationalchickencouncil.org/." All the links work, and the article is pretty well cited (albeit at times to bad sources). There are also some unreliable sources that state facts but do not have sources within the articles to back it up (Like the Obituary of the founder).
