I'm suprised how relatively slim she still is.

Ever since she was a toddler, Stacey Irvine has eaten little else but chicken nuggets and the occasional portion of chips.

Now, at the age of 17, she has been warned by doctors to change her appalling diet or die.

The factory worker – who says she has never tasted fresh fruit or vegetables – had to be taken to hospital earlier this week when she collapsed after struggling to breathe.

Doctors found that her 15-year ‘chronic chicken nugget addiction’ has left her with anaemia and inflamed veins on her tongue.

So deficient was her body in vitamins and nutrients that she had to be injected with them.

Stacey, who is recovering at home on a high-dose course of vitamins, has been hooked on chicken nuggets since her mother let her try them in a McDonald’s restaurant at the age of two.

‘I loved them so much they were all I would eat,’ she said. ‘I just couldn’t face even trying other foods. Mum gave up giving me anything else years ago.’

The teenager, of Castle Vale, Birmingham, admits she will occasionally vary her food intake – by eating a slice of toast for breakfast or a packet of crisps.

Yet following her admission to hospital, she has conceded that the diet is having a negative impact on her health.

‘I am starting to realise this is really bad for me,’ she said. ‘My main meal is always chicken nuggets every day.

‘McDonald’s chicken nuggets are my favourite. I share 20 with my boyfriend with chips.

‘But I also like KFC and supermarket brands.’

A less serious consequence of her craving is that she is struggling to store all the free toys that come with the fast food meals, she added – they fill four bin bags.

Stacey’s mother, Evonne, is exasperated by her daughter’s refusal to eat a healthy and varied diet and wants her to see a specialist.

‘She’s been told in no uncertain terms that she will die if she carries on like this,’ the 39-year-old explained.

‘But Stacey says she can’t eat anything else. It breaks my heart to see her eating those damned nuggets.

‘I am at my wit’s end. I’m praying she can be helped before it’s too late.’

The beauty therapist – who says her two other children Leo, five, and Ava, three, both eat healthily – has even tried depriving Stacey of food in a bid to get her to eat something other than nuggets.

Nutritionist Dr Carina Norris said that, during her ten years of experience, she has not come across such an extreme case of food addiction.

She believes Stacey’s diet will have serious long-term health implications, as her body will be lacking iron, calcium, antioxidants, vitamins and good fats.

‘She should view her health scare as a warning – a wake-up call that she needs to drastically change her diet.

‘Fruit and vegetables are integral to long-term health. Without them, you greatly increase the chances of developing chronic conditions such as heart disease and cancer.

‘So the sooner you can get children eating them, the better. It is also important that you eat lots of different colours. Stacey’s diet is going to be very beige and high in saturated fat.’

A 20-piece portion of McNuggets contains 58g of fat and 926 calories, which exceeds the recommended 56g daily fat allowance and is almost half of the adult guidance of 2,000 calories a day.

Jamie Oliver has scored a rare victory in the U.S. after convincing McDonald’s to change its hamburger recipe.

The chef had called on the fast-food giant to remove the filling he called ‘pink slime’.

Following his pressure, it is no longer using the mixture of ammonium hydroxide and fatty beef offcuts in the U.S.

Oliver, pilloried in the country for encouraging healthy eating, showed TV viewers how the ammonium hydroxide is added to cow parts usually used for cooking oil or pet food to eliminate E.coli.

Wow- she would have changed her mind if she saw how they were made. mc Nuggets used to be all I could eat from fast food- till I saw how they processed it: beaks, feet and innards, treated with ammonia and re-flavored. (rrrreeeetttch!)

Aw, hell. Where do I even start?

I'm surprised she's not sicker, or fatter.

the mother could have stopped this. all she had to do was remove all chicken nuggets from her diet. refuse to feed them to her. let her go hungry until she is ready to try something else.

I stopped eating Mcnuggets w/ a quickness when I was a kid. I bit into one, saw a purple vein thing, and some dark meat. I HATE dark meat!
