    Which vegan nuggets are your favorite?

    • @AdrienneC
      @AdrienneC 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Team Alpha!! But I also enjoy Gardein. I haven't tried Morning Star so I'll try based off this video.

      Great taste test. I hadn't tried a few of those yet.
      Right now, Morningstar Farms and Boca are top on my list. But, now I want to try Alpha.
      I'm not a fan of Gardein because the texture feels battered instead of breaded - so not crispy enough.
      Thanks!

    I just tried “Nowadays” nuggets a few weeks ago and if you guys ever get the chance to, I would 100% recommend trying them. Absolutely amazing!! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and I couldn’t believe they were vegan.

    • @daniellemarcano-buckler6575
      @daniellemarcano-buckler6575 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm glad you found joy in eating them. I thought they were terrible. I'm an omnivore, and if Nowadays was trying to replicate real chicken nuggets, they 100% failed miserably. Imagine a sponge soaked in chicken broth and covered in a mealy corn-flavored breading. THAT'S the Nowadays nugget. IMO, it's not even worth spending the money to try it. Eat Impossible nuggets instead.

    Personally as someone who has just begun their vegan journey and a nugget feen I absolutely love the 365 brand.I feel like they resemble chicken more and get crispy without drying unlike the gardein. Also they are cheaper in my area which really helps. Lastly I feel like Nuggs are so over hyped/expensive and aren’t even worth the price. If I’m going to spend that much money I would rather buy Atlas Monroe 10 out of 10!! I know it’s not a nugget but their fried chicken is 🔥🔥. Thank you guys for doing videos like this honestly saves my wallet.

    Try the Morningstar nuggets with Iron Chef brand General Tso sauce if you can get it. Something about the flavors of each that just go perfect together. You gotta get the Iron Chef brand though, as other brands I've tried just don't taste the same. Serve it with rice and vegetables and it tastes just like real General Tso's chicken you'd get from a chinese restaurant imo. You can get it at Meijer if you have one near you.

    Daring chicken makes a breaded version now. I like the plain version because it's so versatile. I think it is the best vegan mock meat on the market. You can cook any dish with it. From salads, soups, wraps, and stir fry. It does have a texture that is close to chicken but it doesn't bother me because it doesn't taste like chicken. I just like the texture.

    Love the Morningstar but I’ve been buying the wegmans brand lately “don’t be a chicken”.. although I’m going to stop buying them due to the price , they are delicious especially in the air fryer ! Morningstar has a new line called “incogmeato” for kids and they have Mickey Mouse shaped nuggets. For sure switching to the alpha foods nuggets .. they have them on vedgeco.com .. 105 for 39.99 which is extremely cheaper in bulk vs the wegmans one

  • @lyssamichellem
    @lyssamichellem 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    So 2 things that would massively improve these videos!
    1. If you laid out the order in a way that they’re visible the whole time (up on the shelf or something), that’d be nice. Its kind of annoying not seeing them throughout.
    2. If you can mention what type of protein is used instead of just “contains wheat & soy”. Like, is it soy protein? Wheat protein? Pea protein? I avoid soy protein because larger quantities of soy mess up my skin. But if its wheat protein with a tiny soy ingredient, i’d get it.

    • @MakeItDairyFree
      @MakeItDairyFree  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The ingredient lists for all our taste tests are always linked in the description box. Hope that helps

    Simulate Nuggs has a spicy version which is unique & phenomenal. Nuggets can be compared to other nuggets and tenders should just be compared with other tenders

  • @MsBeckly
    @MsBeckly 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for these helpful and fun videos! Are all of these breaded or were any of them battered without breading? It was difficult to see the nuggets. I grew up on McDonald’s nuggets which were battered without breading (in the 90s; no idea what they are like now).

    • @MakeItDairyFree

    I love your reviews! It took me a while to get through this one because I kept getting distracted and needed to restart. BTW...the Gardein nuggets were disgusting (mushy, not crispy, etc.). I think they must be reworking the formula to match the quality of their tenders.
