They use to be white and "light" meat. I loved the light meat ones (unless I got a piece of cartilage, yuck). That was a food staple for me growing up. All I ate at McDonald's were the fries before the Chicken McNugget came out.

Since the 1970s, we've had nuggets, tenders, popcorn chicken, from McD, BK, KFC and independent places. One variety I distinctly remember was the chicken finger basket at Boogie's Diner, a chain of pricey food which also sold clothing and bling with its logo. In 1994, a syndicated TV show, focused on a teen audience, was set in a Boogie's (taped in Canada), and Jim J. Bullock ("Too Close For Comfort") played the manager. My experience at Boogie's was in Mall of America. A basket of chicken fingers was five bucks, but worth the money (a BBQ breast sandwich was $10, too much). Boogie's opened in MOA in 1992, closing in 1995.

Anyone remember the Banquet single-serve boxes of (frozen) microwaveable chicken nuggets that I am virtually certain first appeared around 1987-89, and were available thru the early 90s? There were six in a single-layer carton, with an accompanying small cup of bbq sauce included. They warmed up really well in the microwave along with the sauce, and I always enjoyed them. They were just the post-work snack to enjoy in particular if one worked the 'swing' shift. Those were the days when I could still eat before going to bed without risking acid reflux afterwards.

Description, those were actually the original four sauces: bbq, sweet & sour, hot mustard, and honey. They came out in 83.
