There Are Only Four Different Shapes of Chicken Nuggets at McDonald’s - Here's Why

The famous nugget was designed by McDonald’s to come in four different shapes, no more and no less. The four names given to these little bites of chicken are as follows: the boot, the bone, the ball and the bell.

Once the meat has been ground up, it is then made into four different shapes and then after they have been cooked, the nuggets are frozen and shipped to their restaurants to be sold. It turns out that these shapes are actually geared towards children and 'shaped uniquely for kids and kids at heart’ because ‘it makes dipping more fun!'

Or better yet, how about a McChicken?
