Mom Shares Disgusting Photo Of Chicken Breast That Shreds Into Spaghetti<\/p>\n
A Texas mother was completely shocked when the poultry she was preparing for dinner began to separate into stringy pieces resembling spaghetti.<\/p>\n
Explaining that pasta was not on the menu that night, the mother shared a social media post showing the raw chicken she was washing, which fell apart in her hands.<\/p>\n
On March 21, Alesia Cooper from Irving, Texas, shared a disturbing photo of a chicken breast that seemed to protest its future position on a dinner plate. \u201cI think it\u2019s that fake meat,\u201d she wrote in her now-viral Facebook post, which has sparked a discussion online, with some users considering going vegan.

The mother of two explained, \u201cI\u2019ve been debating on posting this but since I had to see it, so do y\u2019all.\u201d The post, which includes an image of chicken shredding into spaghetti-like strands, continues: \u201cI was cooking my kids dinner a couple of weeks ago and was cleaning my meat like I normally do, and when I went back to start cooking, it turned into this (SIC).\u201d Cooper, who mentioned purchasing the chicken breast from the budget supermarket Aldi, added: \u201clol I think it\u2019s that fake meat but I\u2019m not sure. Anyways\u2026I ain\u2019t made chicken off the bone since.\u201d<\/p>\n
Online users quickly flooded the comments section, offering their theories about what had caused the strange chicken. Some speculated the chicken was 3D printed or grown in a petri dish.<\/p>\n
One commenter argued: \u201cThat\u2019s lab-grown chicken, it\u2019s a new way they make chicken because of the bird flu and resource shortages in recent years. Last year, they announced that they found a way to make chicken in a lab and that\u2019s what\u2019s in stores now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGMO lab meat,\u201d another user wrote. A third simply decided: \u201cFake, I don\u2019t buy it anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, one user offered a more plausible explanation for the shredded chicken: \u201cIt\u2019s not lab-grown meat or 3D printed. It comes from real chickens. The problem is that greedy chicken producers force-feed their chickens growth hormones so they grow too fast.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to The Wall Street Journal, the condition known as \u201cspaghetti meat\u201d is likely the result of breeding chickens to have larger breasts that grow faster\u2014allowing producers to maximize meat yield and profit.<\/p>\n
Dr. Massimiliano Petracci, a professor of agriculture and food science at the University of Bologna in Italy, told the WSJ that these abnormalities are linked to the rapid growth of modern chickens.<\/p>\n
Along with another condition called \u201cwoody breast,\u201d \u201cspaghetti meat\u201d can sometimes result from this breeding. While both might sound unsettling, experts assure that eating these abnormalities won\u2019t harm you.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, online users have expressed their disgust over the noodled chicken.<\/p>\n
One commenter asked: \u201cIt looks like worms! What are they feeding us?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI got some like that a while ago. It looked like that on the bottom. Things haven\u2019t looked right like when we were young. A lot fresher,\u201d shared another.<\/p>\n
Others suggested shopping elsewhere: \u201cYou\u2019ll get humanely raised and better quality chicken from a local butcher or co-op. I recommend going there instead for your meat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Some users were even inspired to change their diets: \u201cI\u2019ll go vegan!! Too much lab food around,\u201d one wrote, while another added: \u201cThis is why we\u2019re thinking about going pescatarian.\u201d<\/p>\n
