Review of Plant Based Nuggets - Raised & Rooted by kyu

I really wanted to like these nuggets — and I can usually find at least some redeeming qualities for almost anything edible — but I actually hate them. I’m kicking myself for buying the big 24oz bag; it takes up so much space and seems to taunt me whenever I open the freezer.
The batter is decent: it’s the right thickness and crisps nicely in the oven. The blandness, too, can be remediated with condiments. The problem is the protein. Texturally, it’s very firm and all one chunk; to me, it felt like eating a breaded eraser. There’s also a funny aftertaste that I can’t quite place . . . and it contains palm oil! Everyone seems to like these, but I can barely eat them, much less recommend them to anyone.
