Let's Get Real
Eat Chicken, Not Fingers
Ever wonder whats really inside those chicken nuggets that you love so much? On this week's Let's Get Real, Erica Wides is here to tell you that it's...well, not chicken! Maybe it comes from a chicken, but, hey- what is chicken these days? Is it a bird? A flavor? Or a finger? Tune into this episode to learn more about what goes into so many "chicken-esque" products these days. Erica also explains why buying a whole chicken from your favorite market (super or not) is essential in connecting food and agriculture in people's minds. And don't believe the hype about white meat! Learn how foodiness and fat-phobic propaganda has led America to only eat certain parts of a chicken instead of the whole bird.
