Tried #Beyond chicken nuggets in the air fryer tonight. I can honestly say they taste better (and are less…) than real chicken nuggets. They are filling (I ate five) as they have fiber.
They have a good bite and chew, and they even have that “funkiness” of chicken.
I know fat and sodium are still concerns so we can’t eat them all day, but they don’t have any aftertaste, not like Impossible Nuggets…
The following info is for their tenders not their nuggets but I got it from the Beyond meat website. Overall, I like their meat alternatives, and it’s moving me toward a plant-based lifestyle.
But we are still 100 years away from chicken wing, fish and steak substitutes. So I eat those with special intent, giving thanks to the Creator and the animals….and praying the meat company and government are doing the right thing by animals. Overall these win out because they have no cholesterol (though eating too much fat will increase yours so be careful) and they have fiber which keeps you full. So.

So, fiber and no cruelty are big plusses for ma.
