It’s blowing my mind how many people just accepted that dumbass steam explanation. How much water do people think is in chicken nuggets?

How much water do people think is in chicken nuggets

Umm Animals are made primarliy of water. Humans are like 70% water lol. 

Chicken nuggets, while mostly composed of chicken, also contain water, with moisture content typically ranging from around 34.71% to 66.08% depending on the specific formulation and ingredients.

The water isn’t just free in animals bodies though, it’s stored in lipids, and muscles, and mixed into blood with a bunch of other solutes. It’s not stored in a way that would cause pressure to build up from steam unless maybe you were using something like a microwave that evaporates water directly

It's sold by weight, so a lot?

That would require a profound lack of nugget in the nugget

Water is an ingredient in chicken nuggets. It's the second ingredient after chicken which itself contains even more water. In fact by weight there is more water than chicken in a chicken nugget.

Yes, but it’s mixed into things and wouldn’t be evaporating with so much pressure that it could move a chicken nugget. Even a watermelon wouldn’t do that

Clearly the steam is being supplied by a water source from another dimension, through a portal, and is being instantly phased into steam as it enters the dinosaur.

Geez, nice thinking 🤔

I don’t use TikTok, but I think it’s slightly more viewable for non-members than Instagram (where I first saw this): https://www.tiktok.com/@ladbible/video/7455261526430141728?lang=en. TLDW - see-thru air fryer shows literally this

u/flaming_burrito_ 16d ago

Case closed then. I had no idea the air current from an air fryer was that strong, but it was the only explanation that made sense

u/noodleexchange 16d ago

It’s obviously magnetic and being spun by a magnetron. Magnets! How do they work?

u/flaming_burrito_ 16d ago

I’d accept this answer before steam honestly

u/Dayzlikethis 16d ago

people read the first explanation and accept it as fact. critical thinking be damned.

u/No_Brilliant6061 15d ago

Is it Great Value? Because those nuggets taste more like water than meat.

u/No_Brilliant6061 15d ago

After watching the video again it seems steam would be unlikely since there would need to be multiple steam pockets as it slows down and speeds up repeatedly. But I stand by my opinion of watery nuggets being real.

lol my thoughts exactly, idiots think a frozen nugget us filled with water.

How much force do you think is needed to spin a well balanced object on a pivot point?

(The answer is way far less than you seem to think)

2

u/flaming_burrito_ 15d ago

From inside via steam? It’s not the amount of force that is crazy, it’s that for this to happen there would have to be a pocket of water somewhere on the outer edge that has somehow built pressure enough to push the nugget that specific way, which is highly improbable

u/Lower_Ad_5532 16d ago

They're frozen so quite a bit. But more obvious is the fan for the air fryer

u/Meecus570 16d ago

Do you think freezing something requires the addition of water?

u/Lower_Ad_5532 16d ago edited 16d ago

Do you think frozen meats are injected with saline for no reason?

The second ingredient listed is water.
