I had them air fried before, and if you really inspect them and think about it you can tell they aren’t chicken (from the texture but the taste is identical IMO). But I had them fried in a deep fryer this weekend and they were indistinguishable from real chicken nuggets. I am flexitarian so it’s not like I haven’t eaten a chicken nugget in years, they are legit. Definitely recommend trying them if you are trying to cut your meat consumption or even if you are just curious.

They make animal shaped and spicy versions too

    The implication is that a vegetarian may have little or no basis for comparison, but OP can speak with some authority.

      They could’ve said they’ve eaten a nugget. But instead they implied that being a flexitarian equates to having eaten said nuggets or that it’s so common that anyone who eats meat at all would have eaten a nugget.

      It’s a weird implication.
