If I were starving in the woods (like in that Charlie Chaplin movie) and had to pick between a boiled rubber boot, and chicken mcnuggets, I would pick the McNuggets, but normally McNuggets aren't anything I go out of my way for.
But FYI there is a running joke here on WP about how folks will start threads with titles like "I like cottage cheese. Is that an autism thing?" Its a recurring thing. Thus a thing to make fun of.
So when I saw the title of this thread I thought "Damn! Why didn't I think of that? Chicken McNuggets is even funnier than cottage cheese as something to link to autism!".

I wasn't having a go if that's how it came across , I was trying to add to the humour.
I was addressing the OP, not you in that post.
Yeah , I'm not the most bit paranoid and over sensitive at the moment

And what makes you believe you can speak for everybody else with autism?
I'd hazzard a guess and say being 14 and on the spectrum.

I sometimes buy frozen chicken nuggets but I prefer chicken wings or tenders as they are much more tasty. Chicken nuggets are usually cheaper, but they're a little too much like cafeteria food. I haven't eaten McDonald's chicken nuggets in ages.
Anyway, my favorite meal is spaghetti and meatballs. But I don't assume all people on the spectrum like it or at least have it on their favorites list.

All joking aside, most kids autistic or not like chicken nuggets or tinders as a staple. I used to eat them pretty regularly, but have since switched to chicken wings. I could probably get by satisfaction wise eating nothing but chicken wings.
you are probably mostly right. Saying that my autistic 8 year old experienced major anxiety when a school friend was going to mcDonald's for her birthday party and invited her. She has never eaten any junk food in her life - we just don't eat that kind of food - and was very worried she would hate it. She kind of did (dislike it) but suffered through - and she's not at all a picky eater in general.

Chicken nuggets are basically like fish sticks, except they're made of chopped-up chicken meat and formed into small bite-sized pieces instead of long thin rectangles. A lot of little kids especially like chicken nuggets because they're boneless, they can eat them with their fingers and dunk them into sauce, and chicken doesn't have the fishy taste or odor that many kids don't like. Myself included.

Thank you for explaining. I think fish sticks are what we call fishfingers. I love fishfingers.

Ha ha no they sound awful though. Sounds like something my parents would have eaten in the 70's.
