Cheap chicken nuggets are trash anyways. If you're buying cheap chicken nuggets, you may as well do yourself the favor of getting the ones made of tofu instead of chicken paste.
It's the breading and the deep friedness that makes it good.
This is my entire take on most veg meat replacements. I won't use substitutes in place of higher quality meat, but if I could I'd replace every single instance of low quality meat in my diet with some tofu/cauliflower/tempeh/whatever substitute.
It's like, I get the nostalgia of shitty chicken nuggets, but 0% chance of biting into a piece of gristle? Sign me up
Quorn is way better than tofu or what I assume is some form of seitan you get with some of these. It really is way better flavor and texture than even decent quality chicken nuggets.
