just a few years ago. I didn't like the texture and thought they didn't have much flavor.

The nuggets at Wendy's are a lot better.

I"m trying to cut out processed meats in my diet altogether because none of it is good for you, this includes the sandwich meats you get at the grocery store.

Me and my wife have been eating ground turkey as a substitute for beef, it tastes really good but it's a shame that most all of it is mechanically separated. Probably done just to save a couple pennies.
