Damn such a simple sounding item like Chicken in theory in batter and deep fried - McD's is the miracle of how to add complexity to such a simple item - Nor does it seem necessary to charge more for all this er Added Value

Lot's of thought goes into a nugget, that and a lot of corn. Of the thirty-eight ingredients it takes to make a McNugget, I counted thirteen that can be derived from corn: the corn-fed chicken itself; modified cornstarch (to bind the pulverized chicken meat); mono-, tri-, and diglycerides (emulsifiers, which keep the fats and water from separating); dextrose; lecithin (another emulsifier); chicken broth (to restore some of the flavor that processing leeches out); yellow corn flour and more modified cornstarch (for the batter); cornstarch (a filler); vegetable shortening; partially hydrogenated corn oil; and citric acid as a preservative. A couple of other plants take part in the nugget: There's some wheat in the batter, and on any given day the hydrogenated oil could come from soybeans, canola, or cotton rather than corn, depending on the market price and availability.
According to the handout, McNuggets also contain several completely synthetic ingredients, quasiedible substances that ultimately come not from a corn or soybean field
but form a petroleum refinery or chemical plant. These chemicals are what make modern processed food possible, by keeping the organic materials in them from going bad or looking strange after months in the freezer or on the road. Listed first are the "leavening agents": sodium aluminum phosphate, mono-calcium phosphate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, and calcium lactate. These are antioxidants added to keep the various animal and vegetable fats involved in a nugget from turning rancid. Then there are "anti-foaming agents" like dimethylpolysiloxene, added to the cooking oil to keep the starches from binding to air molecules, so as to produce foam during the fry. The problem is evidently grave enough to warrant adding a toxic chemical to the food: According to the Handbook of Food Additives, dimethylpolysiloxene is a suspected carcinogen and an established mutagen, tumorigen, and reproductive effector; it's also flammable.
But perhaps the most alarming ingredient in a Chicken McNugget is tertiary butylhydroquinone, or TBHQ, an antioxidant derived from petroleum that is either sprayed directly on the nugget or the inside of the box it comes in to "help preserve freshness." According to A Consumer's Dictionary of Food Additives, TBHQ is a form of butane (i.e. lighter fluid) the FDA allows processors to use sparingly in our food: It can comprise no more than 0.02 percent of the oil in a nugget. Which is probably just as well, considering that ingesting a single gram of TBHQ can cause "nausea, vomiting, ringing in the ears, delirium, a sense of suffocation, and collapse." Ingesting five grams of TBHQ can kill."

Takes a sense of humor to figure out how to add so much to make so little and keep the price low.
Plus now that the cost of oil has dropped McD's is making more money and of course not dropping the cost of the nuggets.
I figure that when they made this item in their test kitchen - They cut some chicken into nuggets - Flour and salt lots of salt and maybe pepper and deep fried.
Now how the other 1000 chemists that work for McD's came up with 36 or so chemicals to add to this simple dish is - Mind boggling
I don't think I have tried them cause I try to stay away from fried food in fast food joints other then French fries on occasion

What pisses me off most is that several years ago I could get a yumbo yack from JiTC and a large Coke from MacDo for x literally 5-10 cents cheaper than $3.00 USD. $0.74 fountain drinks.. Glad in a way though as I'm eating so much healthier these days.

I'm not sure about a nigger such as myself using my tongue upon her anus unless she consented, perhaps another anus.
