Teen Lives On Nuggets For 15 Years



17-year-old Stacey Irvine from Birmingham, U.K., told the Daily Mail that she's been living off of nothing but chicken nuggets for the past 15 years!

The teen reveals that she's been eating nuggets since her mom brought them home for her at the age of two and from that day onwards, she never eaten fruits and vegetables. (What kind of mother allows her child to do that?!)

While she's made it 15 years without fruits and veggies--although she occasionally indulges in french fries--her health conditions highlight why it's so important to have balanced meals--or in her case, to consume something apart from chicken nuggets once in a while.

Some of the health problems Irvine faces include breathing problems, anaemia and most recently, the teen was rushed to the hospital after she collapsed and had swollen veins in her tongue.

What shocks me the most is how she hasn't gotten sick of eating the same thing every day! I know that when I eat too much of one thing--no matter how much I love it--I end up wanting a change within two weeks.

What do you think? Could you ever eat your favorite food forever?
