I use these as the foundation of my DIY KFC pepper mayo sliders. Sublime!
DIY sauce or is there a store bought version available?
DIY for me! I use a more elaborate one that I found after a lengthy online pilgrimage, but other people swear just by simply adding cracked pepper and a dash of Worcester to mayo!
you can't just tease this and not follow through with the recipe!
@starbearer: I bring you love! /MontyBurnsAlien
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tbsp buttermilk
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp salt
What wraps do you recommend?
Jay-Z has some good ones
Mission brand "mini street tacos" generally are my go-to
Put them in a bao bun .. perfect.
I wish you got more in the bag, theres not many there
You should try costco. They have similar stuff in much bigger bags.
Each more tasty than the last!
Unless you know what purpose each of them serves, there is no inherent "yikes" that is relevant. An additive number doesn't make it bad.
Doesn't make it not bad, either. Always a gamble, and I'm sure we'll find out later that many of the things we take for granted as being safe are actually quite harmful to some or all human physiology.
But I also think that if you're eating fried chicken, your body is probably not a pristine temple. A few additives (that won't kill you or make you seriously sick) are most likely going to be fine.
This is extremely bad for you, too much vegetable oil can cause inflammation, increase heart disease risk, and damage cells over time.
@n0mad: Yeah the quacks who go around filming themselves in supermarkets and spouting false information
@n0mad: Eozef is right
seed oils have half life ie in the body like nuclear stuff.
vegetable oils have half life of 680 days so essentially the more you consume the more it accumulates. just ask gpt or gemine (search - vegetable oil stays in body) or better ask a doctor mate.@backupper1: ok, but AI isn't a reliable source. if he is right then should be easy to provide a study showing this.
Life comes with a 100% chance of death.
Would you prefer some activated almonds?
I prefer activist almonds
I wanted to write something similar but these comments don’t strike a chord at ozb, the more the chemistry lab like ingredients the more the upvotes. This take out should be take(en) out of home to the bin actually, with so many ingredients that are persistent i.e. they stay in body forever.
you literally said 680 days up above and now it's forever?
Too much of anything is bad for you, having this every now and then because you don't have time to cook something isn't going to kill you.You provide no nuance, basically no one should eat this at any time.
it doesn't strike a chord because you make claims with little to no evidence. why don't you start by identifying the forever chemicals you claim are in this chicken and the studies showing the negative health effects these chemicals have. Happy to support you in binning this once you do.
Too much love will kill you too.
I am not trying to convince you, just do a simple price check based on all current whole-food costs right now and tell me if you still want this $9 junk in your body. Nothing wrong with being frugal, but your health should not be bargained with.
please read very carefully what I wrote:
I gave example on only one ingredient, vegetable oil not as a forever ingredient but quiet persistent, 680 days is its half life.. means e.g. 10 ml remains 5ml in 680 days ie 1.7 years. Then 2.5ml in another 680 days n so on. it never goes out completely and keeps accumulating if you eat more with each consumption having its own half life.
Not convincing anyone to stop eating it, reader can themselves confirm ingredients(better with a medical professional).
10 ml remains 5ml in 680 days
Bro, no one is out here walking with 6L of accumulated vetegable oil lmao. But can you please provide a source?
I am second of this, Being frugal is fine, but your health is not something to compromise.
Fear mongering is weird as (profanity). You seem to love your earbuds from your comments, why don't you stop using wireless earbuds they're going to give you cancer! (I truly hope you understand this is sarcasm)
Three Doctors told me creatine is bad for me, but all wanted to give me TRT because my test was low? Why do you think doctor = correct?
What you wrote isn't the full picture. You have obviously read some numbers and regurgitated them but not in a way that really explains it.
Seed oils themselves don't have a half life of 680 days. A component of these oils, linoleic acid, can have a half life that long once it has been incorporated into the bodies adipose tissue. Linoleic acid composition in oils can be less than 5% of the full amount and up to 60-70% for something like sunflower oil. So your 10ml -> 5ml comparison isn't accurate. You also need to account for the fact that not all of the linoleic acid will actually make it to the adipose tissue, some will be burnt in a matter of days or weeks. So you might only get 60-80% of the acid actually making it to the tissue.
Exercise also burns fatty acids, such as linoleic acid. So you aren't stuck with this oil in there for 680 days if you live a life that isn't a sedentary slob.
Now, don't get me wrong, there are plenty of well researched issues relating to these oils and fatty acids, but the vegetable oil component of these is likely pretty low (I am guessing <5%).
The thickener additives are all extremely common, natural based additives used not only in processed foods but commercial cooking. The two colours are natural extracts from paprika and turmeric. Of the salts, one is bicarb soda, two are likely industrially produced but identical to ones found in nature/natural foods. Hardly anything to get scared over. I'd be more worried about paying $16.80/kg for something that is only 64% chicken.
Thickener 1420 - acetylated starch - processed by the gut, serves as a useful prebiotic for gut bacteria
Thickener 412 - guar gum - extract of guar beans, water-soluble fibre,some indication of cholesterol lowering effets
Thickener 415 - Xanthan gum - roduced via bacterial fermentation of sugars, extensively studied and found to have no negative health effects, may lower blood sugarThe above are very common ingredients with low risk profiles
Salts (339, 450, 451, 452) - common phosphate salts added to retain moisture. Perfectly safe at the kind of doses they're typically used at.
Salt 500 (baking soda) - fine as long as you're not on a low sodium diet.Colour 160c - paprika extract
Colour 100 - Curcumin (ie turmeric extract) - potentially beneficial as an anti-inflamatory, though bioavailability is quite low without adjuvants
Not sure which of the above that is alarming people so much.
Its the spooky short names. Or maybe it's the numbers?
Any number higher than their IQ is too much go handle
These are great, especially compared to the absolute garbage Ingham and Steggles produce now as "chicken" tenders. I bought a box the other week of Inghams and they are only 40% chicken which is entirely processed and nasty.
It's a shame these companies choose profit over making a decent product.
Breakfast sorted. Thanks OP.
When did they become tenders instead of pieces?
These are arguably better than the pieces. I’ve found quite a few pieces that were chicken-less batter previously and stopped buying them.
Edit: actually the better ones are the burgers.
Plus 1 on the burgers 🍔
Yup, tenders are done quicker than the pieces too…no bone
The problem with the burgers are they seem to have less stock or no stock when they go on special. Either that or somebody has been buying all of them in my local when they do go on special.
They still do both
Nashville and Louisiana tenders from Costco are way better imo. Much higher protein too.
When will people learn that posting negatively about Tegel is like posting negative about an EV or an OLED. You won’t win
Am I the only one that finds these too salty 🤢
I do find them salty but I love them and their crispiness, they def need a burger with fresh ingredients!
Came for the health sermons and was not disappointed.
$8 for 500 g is a bargain now?
I gave up on Tegel, $9/kg for the Coles stuff is good enough for me. Plain tenders or sweet chili.
*Bonus for the tenders is they look identical to the chicken fingers from that episode of Family Guy (three, and yes!).
It is when KFC is your chicken yardstick.
how much does the 9 for $9.95 box weigh?
unfair comparison if that includes bones
They got rid of the chicken 'portions'!! I used to get these all the time and having a drumstick or a qtr wing was the absolute best. Now they only seem to sell the tenders - they're still ok but definitely not as good value.
I still prefer making my own. All it takes is a chicken breast cut into strips, an egg, salt, breadcrumbs and a simple spice mix (I use white pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika, but go wild).
1. Mix spice mix with salt and breadcrumbs.
2. Pull chicken through egg then roll in breadcrumbs.
3. Chuck in the air fryer
4.. ???
5. profit!!
You make chicken tenders with chicken tenderloin, certainly not chicken breast.
Just remember to remove the tendon with a fork.
Fair call.
Which one is not spicy?
Louisiana is not spicy, Nashville is spicy
What’s the regular price though?
$14, so its $5.60 off
ahh the annual chicken post..
Found these too spicy for my liking. But also I'm incredibly white so… Ymmv
Salty and nothing special. Not worth the hype
Cool
