Admit it, you enjoyed eating them when you were ten. Honestly any franchise that is able to sell over 400 million McNuggets is at the very least a COMPETENT chef. You have some culinary skill if you're able to entertain that many people. The problem is that a massive chunk of its audience never developed beyond eating McNuggets. For them, their childhood joy of anticipating the next happy meal toy is the most pleasurable experience they ever drew from eating. Flavour, texture, palate, odour and aesthetic aren't things they know how to appreciate. Chicken, soy sauce, and alternate toys, sure, but anything that couldn't be featured in a multibillion dollar film ad campaign is off limits.

In a sense, I sympathize. This is basically everybody's starting point in a food-saturated commercial society and most people aren't inclined to pursue a sincere appreciate for the culinary arts. But at some point you gotta move forward. Trying to recapture your childhood emotions just makes you a mediocre person and ruins those childhood artifacts for everybody else.
