chicken sandwich? DNA test shows Subway sandwiches could contain just 50% chicken"

Oops, Better Call Paul!

Chicken Strips!

Subway's results were such an outlier that the team decided to test them again, biopsying five new oven roasted chicken pieces, and five new orders of chicken strips. Those results were averaged: the oven roasted chicken scored 53.6 per cent chicken DNA, and the chicken strips were found to have just 42.8 per cent chicken DNA. The majority of the remaining DNA? Soy.

*A&W Chicken Grill Deluxe averaged 89.4 per cent chicken DNA
*McDonald's Country Chicken - Grilled averaged 84.9 per cent chicken DNA
*Tim Hortons Chipotle Chicken Grilled Wrap averaged 86.5 per cent chicken DNA
*Wendy's Grilled Chicken Sandwich averaged 88.5 per cent chicken DNA

Restructured products are essentially smaller pieces of meat or ground meat, bound together with other ingredients to make them last longer, taste better and, as Bohrer puts it, "add value" — restaurant speak for cheaper.
The sandwiches tested contain a combined total of about 50 ingredients in the chicken alone, each with an average of 16 ingredients. The ingredients run the gamut from things you would find in your home such as honey and onion powder to industrial ingredients — all of which, Bohrer insists, are safe and government approved for human consumption.



Civil Defense Officials nervously awaiting the test results for this one.
