The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation had researchers at Trent Universitys Wildlife Forensic DNA Laboratory test the chicken from several fast food chains, including McDonalds, Wendys, A&W, Tim Hortons and Subway.
Most of the scores were between 85 and 90 percent chicken DNA. Except at Subway.
The oven roasted chicken scored 53.6 percent chicken DNA and the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki (chicken strips) had just 42.8 percent chicken DNA, according to the CBC Marketplace investigation.

So what else is in the meat? According to the DNA testing, its soy.

Always wondered about them Chicken McNuggets. Never tasted one.
Fake/junk chicken to eat with our fake/junk evening tv news.
At $6 for the footlong, you're not getting dolphin.
I can guarantee the chicken at any of your local Chick-fil-A’s is 100% real chicken!
(I work at one. I know.)
Wonder what is in the pastrami or the roast beef.
I don’t eat there but my kids do.
We usually stop at Subway when traveling to pick up lunch. At least you can watch the person making your sandwich.
Maybe this is why Jared grew boobs?
All one had to do was call Subway and ask. But it sounds much more dramatic saying “checking DNA.”
My son’s cat wouldn’t eat chicken nuggets from McDonalds.
I saw this. It’s available online as well as most tv is these days. The basic conclusion is Wendys was the best in terms of the fast foods tested but the best is cooking your own chicken at home.
The other 50% is the fat the sucked out of Jared...
“My tuna doesn’t taste as good as it used to”
Of course not silly, it’s dolphin free
Then there’s Chinese ... where did that dog go anyway? Funny how sledom Chinese places have rat problems ...
For men and boys, the phytoestrogens in soy do not appear to have any effect on hormone levels and have not been shown to affect sexual development or fertility. Research studies show that men consuming soy have less prostate cancer and better prostate cancer survival.
Wondered why I could not eat the Chicken Teriyaki. Soy makes me sort of sick. Wasn’t just the sauce. By the way, Subway, that is SO gross.
Every time I have eaten at Subway I have ended up with... let’s call it “fluid drive”. Roast beef, chicken, tuna, doesn’t matter.
Never again. Their coffee is pretty good, though.
The headline was misleading to me - it came across as if the chicken itself, when tested, were some kind of ‘Franken-Chicken’; not that they found other components mixed into it.
The only thing I really like at Subway has been the meatball sub - which is ripe for pumping-up with soy.
(I was on a thread recently where we were talking about Popeye’s chicken, but what I get is all on the bone....?)
Soy tastes like chicken? Everything tastes like chicken.
