Bryan Johnson calls McDonald's chicken nuggets oily and rubbery, engineered to be addictive. With $24 billion in annual revenue, he argues the company exploits human instincts through food science designed to overwhelm willpower, framing it as a harmful force in society.
What is this food? They call it a chicken nugget, but like, oh, man, it's like rubber just dripping with oil. McDonald's, who makes $24 billion a year, they know they can own us with their addictive food. Honestly just gives me the shivers. This is so gross. McDonald's is legit evil. Like, they really are a terrible presence in the world. I'm really sad they exist. The thing to hear that sucks is that our willpower is outmatched by the science and the addictive nature of this food. Perfectly construct to appeal to our worst instincts and our most addictive behaviors. I don't fault any one of you. I don't fault. Society is very, very hard to navigate in the modern world. I'm definitely not loving it.
