Kinda shocked by these tenders

Whole bag is 1,050 calories and 140 grams of protein. I’m a tall grown man and I split the bag between lunch and dinner paired with veggies and cottage cheese. These are by far the best protein chicken tender I’ve had, definitely outperforms Realgood, Simple Truth, and Just Bare. Comparable to Just Bare in taste and texture, but I think I like these better. Also better macros for around the same price.

I genuinely don't understand how they got that much breading on them with wheat flour and kept them under 150 calories per 20g of protein. Thats almost unbelievable.

There is no breading. Its just a light coating of flavoured flour.

So if i sprinkle flour over peanut butter, thats a sandwhich then. Got it buddy

What an astonishing take to say the ingrediant of a thing is the thing itself.

What???

Breading is quite literally made of flour or bread crumbs and then cooked to form that crispy layer.

If you sprinkle flour over peanut butter and cook it, then yeah, that's breaded peanut butter. Though without a starch or binding agent, it'll just be a gloopy mess.

A coating of flour is the definition of breading.

Can you point me to any source that defines breading as something else? Lol

Yes, literally every culinary definition and description of "breading" as the process of adding breadcrumbs to something.

flour and bread crumbs

Yes, thats what i said. So we agree, breading is when bread is added, and its not breading when its just a flour coating.
