it’s not the same taste? In my experience it is, pretty much. Certainly as soon you put any ketchup or sauce on it, which basically everyone does. Nuggets are the second junkiest of all of all junk food, just above hotdogs. Nobody is eating this stuff to have a gastronomic experience.
y’all’s
I for one am not even vegan. But if, at basically no cost in taste or money, I get to avoid causing terrible suffering and environmental degradation, then I will choose to do so. Speaking purely for myself, of course.
Nothing is 100% the same, sure, but some vegan alternatives come really damn close and nuggets are one of them.
I’ve never tried the brand listed in the article, but I’ve had about a half dozen different brands over the years from my grocery store and most of them have been awesome. The prices are ridiculous though, that’s the only reason I don’t get them more often. I will only buy on sale.
It’s unfortunate that we are at this point where economies of scale have not yet kicked in, because once they do these things should be substantially cheaper to produce than actual chicken nuggets.
Ehh I wouldn’t bother with the trolls. No two chicken nuggets taste “the same” because they all have different seasonings.
It should not be a surprise to people that plant nuggs taste slightly different than one particular brand of chicken nuggs, but its all within the margin of variance of flavor and texture for chicken nuggs.
And, like chicken nuggs, there are some really subpar plant nuggs, but you know, don’t buy those ones. It’s not fucking hard to try a few different brands and form your own opinion.
And what’s the issue if it’s not 100% the same? Even chicken nuggets from different places, brands etc. taste different.
It’s still very close, and when that’s the case it’s always better to go for the non-animal suffering, less climate impact option.
Picture a field of soybeans. Now picture a hellish scene of thousands of miserable bedraggled chickens crammed together in a dark hangar.
The taste is exactly the same.
I think progress on this one is going to be faster than people imagine.
It’s not though.
I respect y’all’s decisions but you shouldn’t just say whatever to try and trick people

There’s no trickery. It’s labelled clearly.

They are pretty damn close at this point. The only real concern you have to think through is diatery.
