Adley's blind 'Nuggie' taste test: is her favorite nugget really her favorite?

The family's Shorts channel set Adley a fast-food blindfold challenge, and its comment section has turned into a vote for Wendy's.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 139,979 views a day, 12 times a normal first day on this channel (11,603).

A blindfold, a few nuggets and one confident girl: "Blind Nuggie Taste Test!! is Adley's favorite nugget ACTUALLY her favorite??" puts Adley's loyalty to McDonald's to the test. The description, written in her voice, has no doubts about how it goes: she loves McDonald's "Nuggies", so of course she would get it right. The tags point to a straight blind taste test, the kind of food challenge that family channels return to again and again.

The Short passed 58,000 views in its first seven hours. That is a quick start for A for Adley Shorts, which describes itself as "bite sized moments of Adley and the Family" and mostly recuts scenes from the main A for Adley channel run by Shaun McBride, known online as Shonduras. The rest of the channel has been quieter than usual. Its last few uploads were a run of driving-simulator clips starring Adley's little sister Navey, with near-crashes, a police chase and a promise that she will drive just fine as a grown-up. Only the first of those has come close to the nugget test.

The comments have their own opinion on the question in the title. Several viewers skip McDonald's entirely and cast their vote for Wendy's, one of them for the cheese. Others write as long-time followers, including one who says they loved these videos as a little kid.
