Impossible nuggets are pretty wild (kbin.social)

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

Costco in my area (Portland) occasionally has these, and I always grab 3-4 bags when they're available. They're as near as makes no difference to a "real" chicken nugget to me, and that's saying a-fucking-lot from a meat lover! These get 10/10 for me, onward goes vegan supersession!
