LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — If you think that chicken sandwich you ordered at Subway did not fully taste like fowl, you may have been right.

According to a Canadian study, a DNA test showed only half of Subway’s oven-roasted patty is made with real chicken.

Subway was among five fast-food restaurants whose chicken the Canadian Broadcast Corporation had tested.

The results showed the Oven Roasted Chicken patties averaged 53.6 percent chicken DNA while the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki strips came in at 42.8 percent.

From their website:

CHICKEN BREAST PATTY Chicken breast with rib meat, water, chicken flavor (Sea salt, sugar, chicken
stock, salt, flavors, canola oil, onion powder, garlic powder, spice, chicken fat, honey), potato starch,
sodium phosphate, carrageenan.

Water is the second most prevalent ingredient
Potato starch is a cheap filler and thickener https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potato_starch
Carrageenan is basically seaweed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrageenan

Bon Appétit! Yum! :lol:
