So, I just found this product in my local grocery store. What obviously drew my attention was the amazing packaging. Having been vegan for over 16 years, I'm always excited to try new products, and tend to lean to faux chicken products. My favourite of all time, thus far, is No Evil's Comrade Cluck. Unfortunately, all of my local grocery stores have stopped carrying this product :( . These faux nuggs literally reminded me of my childhood fast food days: the breading is on point, the inside shredded but compact like a real nugget, and the flavour just chicken-like. If you're craving nuggies, definitely try out this product!!!
I dig the breading on these. I did not try spicy but even the original flavor has a bit of spice/zest to it though - FYI in case you are not expecting it. The inside is almost like the consistency of inside of a falafel - it is a bit mushy. But they are small so it's not like taking a big bite of mush. Breading is crispy. I like ketchup and probably wouldn't eat them without it, but overall these were good and I will order again.
NUGGS had popped up in my Facebook timeline as an ad. I didn't order direct from NUGGS since there was a minimum quantity to fulfill. Then shockingly, these popped up in the local supermarket. As I had read in other online reviews, everyone loves the crisp breading, but the chick'n filling is somewhat mush. With dipping sauce, they are good. We plan to try the SPICY version.
