Not every day your prejudices are debunked with one bite. No todos los días tus prejuicios son derrotados con un solo mordisco.
That happened to me during a bloggers event hosted by @McD_SouthFla. and I couldn’t be happier. During the event we toured the kitchen of one of the restaurants –amazing experience — and got to taste the new Chicken McNuggets. 
Well, the rest of the bloggers did, because as you know I’m gluten intolerant, and their faces were showing so much pleasure that my mouth did water.
The same thing happened when I got home. I had brought a couple of boxes for my kids, but they never saw them that day. My husband, like most athlete wary of fast food, devoured them.
But don’t worry, I didn’t suffer much. I had an amazing salad (with romaine lettuce, no less) and a cortadito. Yes, Mc Donald’s in South Florida serves Cuban coffee and even pastelitos de guayaba.
It was very interesting to meet the owners of the restaurant and their family. To learn how McDonald’s is developing this concept of fast food that is not junk food. It really excites me to see business listening and caring about their costumers.
This specific event was about the new Mc Nuggets, which are made with 100% white meat and no artificial preservatives, colors or flavors. You will see that they look whiter on the inside, the breaded part lighter and a lot more flavorful.

Esto me pasó durante un evento de blogueros en el que conocimos a la gente de @McD_SouthFla. La verdad es que fui con bastante escepticismo y quedé positivamente sorprendida.
Todo comenzó con los nuevos Chicken McNuggets. La intención era que los probáramos. Como sabes soy intolerante al gluten, por lo que no los pude comer, pero el resto de los colegas presentes quedaron encantados y confieso que se me hizo la boca agua. No te preocupes, que no sufrí mucho, pues las ensaladas también estaban deliciosas, ahora las hacen con lechuga romana, que está llena de vitaminas y minerales buenísimos.
Pero aunque me quedé con las ganas, me traje dos cajitas para la casa y que para los niños. Los pobres no pudieron ni olerlos, porque estaban tan ricos, que mi esposo, que como todo atleta arruga la nariz frente a la comida chatarra, se los devoró en un segundo. ¡Así de buenos estaban!Resulta que los nuevos Mc Nuggets, que son hechos en un 10% con carne de pollo ahora no tienen preservativos, ni colorantes. Es decir, son prácticamente como que tú en la casa los haces para la familia.
Cuando finalmente les compré unos a los niños, me aseguraron que son igual que ricos que antes, pero que se sienten como más sabor y que tienen menos pan. Además tuve la oportunidad de conocer a los dueños del restaurante y me emocionó ver cómo han logrado incorporar nuestra cultura al menú. Sí, ellos sirven cortaditos y pastelitos de guayaba.

Announcements From McDonald’s
McDonald’s USA recently announced a number of moves across its menu as the company continues to evolve. This includes:
- removing artificial preservatives from several items which also don’t have artificial colors or flavors, including its iconic Chicken McNuggets. Across its breakfast menu, the pork sausage patties and omelet-style eggs served on McGriddles, Bagel and Biscuit breakfast sandwiches, along with the scrambled eggs on its breakfast platters, also now have no artificial preservatives.
- rolling out new buns this month that no longer contain high fructose corn syrup, including the buns used on Big Macs, Quarter Pounders, hamburgers and cheeseburgers, Filet-O-Fish and McChicken sandwiches. The Artisan roll introduced in 2015 never contained high fructose corn syrup.
- completing a major commitment to only serve chicken not treated with antibiotics important to human medicine* nearly a year ahead of schedule.
