Why You Can Trust CNET
Impossible Chicken Nuggets
Best vegan nugget overall
Each of the vegan nuggets tested here was prepared both in the oven and in the air fryer, with my favorite barbecue sauce as a dip. The nuggets were taste-tested on the same day by me — a non-vegetarian — as well as my girlfriend, who’s been vegetarian for many years. Other CNET staff writers were also invited to share their thoughts on which vegan nugget they preferred, which helped set up our options for this test. Happy tasting.
It is not a requirement that the best vegan nugget taste like a chicken nugget you’d get at your favorite fast-food place, but consider it a bonus that Impossible Nuggets do exactly that. If you’re a meat-eater looking for an occasional plant-based alternative or just looking for finger foods everyone can eat, you can’t go wrong here.
Unlike most plant-based brands I’ve seen in stores, Simulate was the first brand I saw heavily advertised on social media. The company boasted it was impossible to know these weren’t made of chicken. I didn’t find them to be that exactly, but what Simulate does have is a quality wheat protein and soy protein blend in a tasty shell and more variety than most.
I’ve had several plant-based goodies from Alpha Foods before, including the company’s breakfast sandwiches and burritos, but it wasn’t until CNET’s McKenzie Dillon raved about these nuggets that I grabbed a bag. The thing I found most interesting about these nuggets is they were better in the air fryer than they were using the conventional oven instructions. The outside stayed nice and crispy, and the inside dried out a lot less versus the standard instructions.
If you’ve been in a grocery store, you’ve probably seen the name Morningstar Farms before. This brand has been around for a long time and makes plant-based alternatives for those who need them. There’s more competition now for plant-based alternatives, especially when it comes to chicken replacements, and as a result these Chik’n nuggets are at the bottom of our list.
