365 by Whole Foods Market, Plant Based Chicken Chunks, 8 Ounce
What You Should Know
You'd find this in the plant-based/meat-alternative section (often frozen or refrigerated) at Whole Foods, grabbed when you want a quick chicken-like swap for weeknight dinners or snackable bites. The vibe is convenient and comforting — a familiar, nostalgic nod to breaded chicken chunks but reformulated as a plant-based product — and the ingredient list (isolated soy proteins, yeast extracts, natural flavors, emulsifiers and gums) and engineered texture are hallmarks of ultraprocessed formulations.

Common Questions about 365 by Whole Foods Market, Plant Based Chicken Chunks, 8 Ounce
Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective, right? These chunks pack a punch with 43 grams of protein and 13 grams of fiber per serving, which is great for satiety. However, they do contain canola oil and are high in sodium, so if you're watching your salt intake or oil consumption, you might want to enjoy these in moderation.
