Natural Chicken Nuggets

Looking for a healthy chicken nugget that tastes great? Well, you’ve come to the right place. Our chicken nuggets are made from simple ingredients and are free of chemical preservatives and fillers. We only use select cuts of antibiotic-free thigh and breast meat in our nuggets, which are coated with a light, tempura style breading. They’re crisp, natural and delicious, and sure to have the little ones asking for more.

 

*Important Allergen Information: The breading on our natural nuggets is set with refined vegetable oil. Refining is a process that removes the soy protein allergen from oil, making it tolerable to most people with a soy allergy. For this reason soy is not listed on our packaging as an allergen contained in our natural breaded chicken products.

DELICIOUS! BEST EVER! May 14, 2012

Reviewer: Hailee E.

After viewing with my school the movie, Food Inc, I was quite bothered by how large meat manufactures produce their meat-thus I sought out a delicious and healthier alternative...and boy did I find it! Your chicken nuggets are fantastic and just overall delicious! I'm also proud to eat them as they're made naturally and humanely! <3 Em! Sooooo delicious! Best midnight snack! Thank you, Applegate! I love 'em!

are these mechanically separated? April 10, 2012

Reviewer: dave i.

are these or your organic chicken strips mechanically separated? also how come you use such large bags for a small amount of chicken? your product is pricey and if you used smaller bags you could cut cost and waste! as far as taste they aren't amazing, but not terrible. They are healthy

4-year old approved! March 12, 2012

Reviewer: Sarah W.

After trying several brands of all-natural chicken nuggets and not liking any of them, we recently discovered the Applegate brand. My daughter loves your nuggets and even asks for them for breakfast!! We also enjoy the chicken tenders. It is so reassuring to find brands that do not treat their stock with antibiotics and do not use artificial colors or flavors. Thank you for this!!!

Please sell in bulk size February 20, 2012

Reviewer: pj R.

This chicken nuggets are good and I feel good serving them to my family. However, one box isn't big enough to feed a family of 4. Please make these in a bigger size.

Dissappointed January 28, 2012

Reviewer: Eileen D.

I just finished eating a half dozen of the chicken nuggets. If I hadn't been so hungry, I might have thrown them out because they tasted like old, leftover chicken. The package states "Best used by 03/18/12," and I purchased it yesterday (01/27/12). I hope I don't get sick; being disappointed is bad enough!

Excited about the chicken nugget January 5, 2012

Reviewer: K U.

Thank you so much for making a nugget that does not contain a seed oil. My daughter is allergic to all nuts/seeds/garlic/onion/barley/parsley. Though I love organic, it has been a challenge with the seed oils (incl. canola). Finally, a quick meal (since we usually make everything from scratch) and one that we can easily take on trips and put into the microwave. Any food item, that makes life a little easier is much appreciated. Please don't replace these with seed oils!

My daughter is very finicky and doesn't eat a wide variety of foods. She loves Chicken nuggets and we've tried alot of different brands and this one is not only good for her but excellent flavor! Thank you for providing this great product!

Garlic-free and yummy! August 22, 2011

Reviewer: Michele C.

My VERY picky 3yo has egg & garlic allergies. Applegate's (regular) chicken nuggets & organic uncured hot dogs are the only ready-made options we've found that he likes! As a busy mom, I can't thank Applegate enough for making healthy alternatives to the processed food that fills the grocery store- and it's allergen free for our family! The chicken nuggets look & taste like REAL chicken and the hot dogs are, by far, the best we've ever tasted.

Organic Option without Soy or Corn please? August 20, 2011

Reviewer: Carrie H.

These are good, but you know what would make them great? If they were completely organic without soy or corn (because almost all of it in the US is GMO). Also using whole wheat flour and sunflower oil. :) When they're organic I will start buying them again... Thank you!

Organic Nuggets August 4, 2011

Reviewer: Melissa G.

We love the organic chicken strips and the natural nuggets. I am wondering why you don't carry organic nuggets? A friend said they use to be labeled Organic, is this true and if so why did that change?

Great Food August 1, 2011

Reviewer: Janie M.

I have been buying these nuggets for a couple months and I love them! I buy them specifically for my four year old daughter. She loves them and I feel really great about keeping her away from hormones and processed foods. Every kid loves a chicken nugget so this is our family's coice! PS we have never been sick from ANY of Applegate's products

Food poisoning problems July 16, 2011

Reviewer: Jenn V.

I have tried these products and loved them at first. Back in March I had a severe case of food poisoning. Wasn't sure what it was from. I was eating Applegate at the time. A few weeks ago I got it again, and this was right after I ordered the chicken from the Healthfood store. Still hadn't realized it was from that so I kept eating them and not getting better. I had some yesterday, it was the ONLY thing I had for dinner. Got sick yet again. I would suggest checking your products carefully. This explains why I have been sick so often since I ate a lot of them. Please check things over so others don't get this. I personally will not eat Applegate again.

Set Up New Account February 25, 2011

Reviewer: Applegate *.

Hi Dalila! We sell hot dogs in bulk directly on our website. But my guess is that we should set you up an account if you’ll be ordering multiple times both fresh and frozen items. My name is Renee and my direct line is 908-927-8540 and I will help you. Thanks for caring about what your students eat!
