麦当劳已经证实他们所售的鸡块有四种不同的形状，打破了一些人认为鸡块是随机形状的看法。

　　On a Q&A forum on McDonald's website one patron of the restaurant, called Stew from British Columbia, Canada, asked the company: 'Why do your Chicken McNuggets only come in four shapes?'

　　在肯德基网站的答疑论坛上，一位来自于加拿大英属哥伦比亚的老主顾Stew问道：“为什么你们的麦香鸡块只有四种形状呢”。

　　The spokesman replied: 'The four shapes we make Chicken McNuggets in was the perfect equilibrium of "dipability" and fun.

　　肯德基代言人回答道：“我们麦香鸡块的四种形状是方便蘸取和趣味的完美结合”。
