Don't mess with my McNuggets

Why legacy McDonald's is healthier than "McPlant"

In Germany this week, the McDonald’s Corporation began to test market its McPlant Nuggets, a non-meat, tempura-battered chicken-like food product. I don’t know when they’re coming to the US, but I know this: I ain’t gonna eat no WEF nuggets. The real chicken ones are so much more healthy.

I speak from experience.

This is a bonus post (paid subscribers only) in my series about diet, the pandemic, how Covid vaccine side-effects took my life away, and how I got it back by defying the Medical-Governmental Complex (MGC). You can read it from the beginning starting here.

In Part II, I talked about life and health before Covid, and how I first came to suspect that all was not well with the MGC. As I approached middle age, like many people I began to struggle with my weight. I tried my best to follow the medical community’s advice, which, at the time, was the infamous, low-fat, high-carb Food Pyramid. I failed miserably. But when I turned it upside down and switched to the high-fat, low-carb Atkins Diet—the exact opposite—I lost eleven pounds in two weeks. Who knew that it was carbs, and not fat, that made you fat? (Well, actually our parents knew that. And bodybuilders. But I digress.) That experience shaped a lot of my attitudes toward doctors and health “experts” when the pandemic hit.

Before I get into the pandemic though (I’ll get to it in the next installment, I promise), I want to tell you about two other diets I tried. The first was the darling of the MGC: vegetarianism. No meat. I learned that wasn’t as nutritious as it’s cracked up to be. The second was something guaranteed to get the MGC foaming at the mouth: Like Morgan Spurlock, in his documentary, Super Size Me, I ate only at McDonald’s, three times a day, every day for a month. But I got very different results than he did.
