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

    I haven’t tried Impossible, but I always have Quorn nuggets in my freezer. If I really think about it, I can tell they’re not chicken since they’re only marginally trying to be. But it’s a nugget, I’m not expecting a sous vide delicacy. Quorn definitely fills any nugget craving I might have.

    I’ll check out Impossible, though, out of curiosity.

      Man, I used to love Quorn nuggets. Why did you get me thinking about Quorn nuggets again?

        It seems they have both vegan and vegetarian. But my internet searching is kind of suggesting that the vegan variety are only available in the UK, which would explain why I’ve never seen them before.

          Ah, that’s good to know. It seems their vegan products have “vegan” printed on the front label, so I’ll have to keep an eye out in case they decide to carry them in the US.
