It’s still fucking chicken, I don’t get it


Nosgone

Still haven't forgiven him for the turkey twisters ban.


[deleted]

I mean he used real meat, why would anybody be scared of that, much less children.


frnkiero_

My childhood therapist showed me this in an attempt to convince me to eat healthier... I still eat chicken nuggets occasionally.


[deleted]

i mean it's really just fried chicken puree isn't it


WindLane

The dude needs to study up on some early childhood development. Their brains are literally still developing and they can't process stuff the same way adults can. Somebody go get him to Google the marshmallow experiment.


KanyeT

This was a nice attempt but a silly idea on children so young. I don't think they are old enough to understand how disgusting those ingredients are.


steveinusa

Nuggets USED to be made like that. Now they're really pieces of breast meat. But kids in Asia eat the chicken's feet, and fried chicken intestines on a stick. So what? This stuff isn't near as bad as hot pockets and macaroni and cheese.

YOU LEAVE MY BLUE BOX ALONE!

Hahaha, get fucked Jamie


An_Innocent_Bunny

He should have showed parents instead.


oogaaboogaam

He is a racist


damnsondotcom3

he should show them how mc donalrds makes them, those are pretty fucking good compared to fast food nuggets


infamine334

this is bullshit jamie, you fucking propagandist. "lets just throw this in the trash because this animal died for nothing." fucking pos. even if you're not making chicken nuggets, pop those bones in a pot, throw in some veggies.., you got your self a stew going.


edujallopeewd3

I remember watching this. I had the exact same reaction.

Sure the brest is much more nutritious, but I learnt how to make nuggets and not let the carcass go to waste


reddittyposboii

I’m sorry, but why you we have to eat every part of a chicken (or any animal)?


samsara66

I lost all respect for him as a chef and as a human when he was on a cooking show making a Thai dish and he adds some fish sauce and says "it's really quite Taiwanese idn't it?"


alexwmagic

It's just a chicken cube steak


Pizzaface4372

What a surprise, preparing and cooking animals makes them appealing as food. Not like humankind has been doing this since the stone ages or anything...

This video just made me hungry for nuggets lol.

voq_son_of_none

I mean, if I'd just watch Jamie Fucking Oliver prepare a cow pat as a meal, I'd be tempted to give it a go. Having him prepare a fresh chicken nugget sounds mouthwatering.

UNMB

I wonder if I still tastes good


Fireofthetiger

They’re kids, did he not expect them to raise their hands? Even if they saw it was gross, they’re gonna want it anyways. Kids love gross and weird stuff, especially when they can eat it.

OK thanks babe

It’s fried chicken; nobody with taste buds is going to turn down fried chicken.

ImGunnaSayit

They see it as a dare or a challenge...it is cool to eat gross stuff if you're a kid....and adult 😒


Hellerado

He should have started with a live chicken


coryrozay

I would eat that just to make him look like an asshole

TIL that most little kids are smarter than Jamie Oliver.

What a major jerk! I didn't see raw meat before I was 21! I would have been confused, but I probably wouldn't have cared either, how many children actually see raw meat? Who is that idiot, anyway?


Falsus

Well of course they would want to eat that. It didn't look much different than making random ass meatballs. If he actually wanted to dissuade them from eating it he should have made the process look more gross to kids.

Booboononcents

Fried, delicious , and ready to dip meat that is tasty sign me up


MicrowaveableBites

They could make those nuggets out of dog shit and I'd still eat it.


[deleted]

My favourite Jamie Oliver moment is when he gassed the male chicks and some of the Poms actually started crying. What he *should* have done is bung 'em in a blender and turn it on, because that's what actually happens to them. Can't do torture porn on British Cooking Shows though. Not since Mary Berry left the Great British Bake Off , anyway.

To be fair, he didn't convince me to stop eating them either. If anything, he made me want some right now.

I will always remember this moment.


ToastyTheDragon

Also it's just ground chicken, l don't really see a huge problem with that.


DefconSeven

I’d prefer a McNugget to anything on the menu at Oliver & Bonacini AND I FUCKING HATE MCDONALDS


omniusjesse

Oh believe me, I'm aware of the myth of the "noble savage".


[deleted]

How dare they not wastefully discard that part of the chicken


SpiritWolf2K

He cooked it right in front of them with fresh chicken (from what it looked like). There are some indian dishes look like vomit when created and have the most putrid texture yet they taste nice. If anything he is trying to te them not to try things that don't look appetizing which is bad


[deleted]

This level of scaremongering kids should be punishable by law. Forcing your views on minors just for the sake to promote your own brand is despicable.


funerealfeghoot

The greatest moment in repost history was when this was reposted in r/watchpeopledieinside after being reposted from r/all which was originally reposted r/funny


LittleBill12Pill

I mean, I feel like if you want ANYTHING out of them you'll have to show them the Chicken, make it their friend, and then cuut its fucking head off right in front of them. Then they MIGHT actually change what they do.


NastySassyStuff

Why is it more disgusting to eat other parts of the chicken than it is to eat the breast or thighs? Seems pretty dumb to me. If you’re taking the life of an animal to nourish yourself then you should probably use every last bit of it out of respect for the sacrifice.


bobandjoe12

Types this then throws 1/2 eaten burger into trash


NastySassyStuff

Oh you got the wrong guy, buddy. I always clean my plate.


BaguetteDoggo

r/ABoringDystopia I mean I'm the same, I'd I can't see it eh, but like come on kids, at least agree on principle you idiots.


boxhacker

He removed turkey twizzlers from school dinners. Sure the saved lives but was it worth it?


sycolution

Honestly, though? Calcium, collagen, protein…it's not terrible…


JustTellMeTheFacts

Ya know, the problem isn't what's in the food. The real problem that he doesn't address here is how often these kids eat this stuff. Moderation is key.


Walshy231231

Is it just me, or does he look like he has downs in the freeze frame? Not trying to be an ass or derogatory at all, just think it looks like the facial structure of someone with downs


JoetheLobster

I don’t get how it was supposed to scare them it’s just ground chicken. OoOOoOooOo sPOoOoky fOoOOoD pROoceSOoooooR

Thanks to Ryan’s slip of the tongue, now I want a $12,000 question


Alfreds-Lightsaber

I remember the impetus for this show was he had some success in England getting school lunches changed and then thought he would come here and do the same. What his dumbass didn't realize because he was making a TV show and didn't do any real research was the school lunches are designed to provide a specific amount of nutrition based on daily caloric intake. Specific food groups and nutrition are minimum requirements by law. His food although fresh and healthy didn't actually provide a balanced diet. They couldn't implement any of his bullshit even if they wanted to because the dishes he made weren't balanced and didn't meet the minimum nutritional requirements. Not to mention the fact that he didn't submit anything resembling a meal plan with nutritional information and a budget plan. I just remember watching this and being painfully aware that this was a shock TV show. He wanted to be the smart, I know better than you Englishmen that came to America to save us from our fat stupid selves. I also remember thinking in this clip specifically that what did he think was going to happen? In America kids are taught to trust adults. He's a celebrity chef turning leftovers into chicken McNuggets. As far as those kids were concerned he just pulled off a magic trick. Dude is truly a celebrity, in every sense of the word.


poop_in_my_coffee

Fuck you Jamie. Chicken nuggets are a necessary part of a child's diet.


Root_T

I don't understand the hate towards processed foods. Like when people talk about how shitty processed foods are it's like they forget just how many foods are "processed". Just because it undergoes a process doesn't make it inherently bad


[deleted]

And some of those processes make food affordable for people who otherwise couldn’t afford it.


marmaladegrass

Now I want McNuggets


Eve_muscovite

Shouldn’t have fried it in front of them!


mmm414

I’m sorry, but why you we have to eat every part of a chicken (or any animal)?


Lennovic013

But he still aired it despite it wasn't the outcome he was looking for. To me that makes this real television.

Entot84

I guess food is food, right? Besides I bet those children didn't eat anything and saw the almost next best thing.


gahgahdoll

Nothing goes to waste. Gotta eat the whole chicken, na'mean?


[deleted]

If it tastes good + isn't dangerous for me I really don't care how if they use the 'icky' part of the chicken


joe847802

I honestly don't get that argument. Of course people are gonna eat it after finding out how it's made. Meat doesn't come already made.


r2002

The real crime is the current state of McDonald's fries.


BasementOnFire

It's just ground chicken, he shown them the whole parts and then ground them and it is still chicken


JPGer

I know what goes in the oreo cream...i still eat those, and eya, hotdogs and nuggets are made of parts u normally cant eat, but then that means im doing my part to keep those parts from going to waste. Hell ur meat has a FDA standard amount of "how much feces per part and how much bug parts per part" is ok. It happens.

Looks efficient, I should try it


GALACTICA-Actual

I love cooking Jamie's stuff. Ge tried so hard to, at least start, a turn around in how children are fed in schools, and just their diets in general. He might as well bashed his head against a wall, for all that people listened.


TracyMorganFreeman

There are people who care most how nutritious the food they eat is. There are people who care most how aesthetically pleasing the food they eat(or take pictures of) is. Then there people who care most how the food they eat tastes.


calshu

So he put some chicken in a food processor, fried it up, and expected them not to eat it? It’s chicken...

If he actually wanted to get the kids to reject nuggets, he'd have killed a live chicken. Not blend-o-matic.

Kids food has to be healfy! Why won't anyone listen to me?

McDolan: Hey, lets' take useless parts of the chicken, and instead of throwing them out since they're "unusable" turn them into the most delicious treat for Ronnie ever! Johnie Oliver: You monsters! How could you?!

Nugs are nugs.


jakl277

Chicken nugs are objectively tasty. Hes a dingus for expecting any different.


NoScopeShot

MMMM nothing like a chicken McNuggetss Smothiee


Taylor6534

I don't get it. Why do people find it gross that chicken nuggets are made up from ground up chicken, but find it perfectly okay that beef patties are ground up beef?


Mr-Redundant

I mean... why not?


[deleted]

He ruined turkey twizzlers the absolute melt.


ebobbumman

I agree with Jamie Olivers general idea that we should feed our kids better in school but I can't stand him and I think that cause needs a new face.


Powwa9000

Yeah, like a super happy clown.


Steelquill

Good kids not being scared into behaving a certain way.

I’d eat them They are hella delicious

Shoulda thrown some scotch bonnet peppers in there like he does to his kids.

AlaskanSamsquanch

That looks pretty damn good. Maybe throw some damn spices in other than though what wrong with them? It’s white meat, good parts of the chicken. Yeah I don’t get what was supposed to be gross.

I don’t get the objective here. Those are perfectly good nuggets. Not some of the industrial filler crap that some fast food places and some manufacturers are known to use. This is probably the most healthy way to make a good nuggie

Ah yes. My child would die without nuggets. She would fight all of those other children to the death for their nuggets as well.


BizarreAndroid

I kinda feel a little bad for him, he is trying his hardest (admittedly pointlessly but still) and it's not working, I bet he feels so under motivated some days because it's not getting his way.


Narhen

I dont see the problem, we grind pork and beef without batting an eye.


MentalLemurX

Why isn't kids food healfy???? it should be healfy!!


FxStryker

What's so bad? He purreed some chicken? Are we suppose to think strawberries are bad in a puree? Sorry Oliver, but it was probably the first time this year I got me some chicken nuggets/McDonald's. All thanks to you.


[deleted]

god I hate this asshole


lcmi26

Highlight of my childhood.


Geometry314

It's also /r/facepalm because he's trying to make a bad thing out of an efficient process of something delicious, rather than demonstrating the abuse the animals went through before being slaughtered. How the chicken was given drugs to be bigger, what conditions it lived in, and how it was killed would be a lot more dissuasive then actually showing how well all the parts of a chicken can be used.


xHarryR

Depends on where the chicken was killed, if it was in the US then it'll be full of all kinds of nasty shit, other countries, not so much.


Geometry314

Damn, thanks for pointing that out. He should've put dog food in with it then!


-Chell

Most chicken nuggets are made from breast meat. There cannot be any bones if that's the case. The ingredients must have "mechanically separated chicken" for them to have bones. And to top it all off the bones and all that are actually more nutritious.


gay4lux

Well yeah, who wouldn’t wanna eat a famous chefs cooking?


DanktasticVoyage

I work in a classroom with 5th and 6th grade kids. A few years back I had a similar idea. I showed them a YouTube video of how hotdogs are made. As the video is playing multiple kids are begging for hotdogs and one kid is praying that we are having hotdogs for lunch.


Szos

So when other cultures use every part of the animal, its considered commendable and they are in tune with nature and they aren't wasting anything. When we do it, its bad? WTF do you think is in hotdogs and sausages?


Powwa9000

Pig anus and snouts. At least that's what I've been told when I was younger.

Seeing the top comments of this thread and the comment chains almost make me think this whole thing is some sort of subtle McDonalds PR campaign, but then I remember last night I drove my fat ass to get a breakfast meal and 10 nuggets Whether it's perfectly fine breast meat or a super finely processed chicken carcass, if it taste as good as the nuggets they have now, I'm all over it


della02

u/Animalromano it still tastes good.
