I had them air fried before, and if you really inspect them and think about it you can tell they aren't chicken (from the texture but the taste is identical IMO). But I had them fried in a deep fryer this weekend and they were indistinguishable from real chicken nuggets. I am flexitarian so it's not like I haven't eaten a chicken nugget in years, they are legit. Definitely recommend trying them if you are trying to cut your meat consumption or even if you are just curious.

They make animal shaped and spicy versions too

I am flexitarian so it’s not like I haven’t eaten a chicken nugget in year...

What?

Not eating meat/animal products the majority of the time

I would like to go full on vegan but I have sensory issues with food so it's a long work in progress while I find enough vegan options I like

I'm still confused what that has to do with eating a chicken nugget in a year.

They're saying they aren't vegetarian, so know what real chicken nuggets taste like. OP worried that people might assume they are vegetarian, and therefore might not have a good idea of what chicken nuggets taste like. That sentence is meant to avoid people assuming that.

That's my best guess anyway.
