Gardenburger Buffalo Chik'n Wings

Gardenburger Buffalo Chik'n WingsFirst and foremost, these Gardenburger Buffalo Chik'n Wings are DELICIOUS, but extremely SPICY. If you can't handle hot sauce, you will NOT be able to handle these. These "meatless" chicken wings may seem like sacrilege to some, but I cannot believe what a delicious and good product Gardenburger made.

If you're someone who loves spicy foods, this is definitely for you. It is easy to make and comes with a good sized amount, enough to serve two in each box. They are very saucy and not dry at all. They clearly do not taste the same as regular Buffalo chicken wings, but it doesn't matter because these taste just as good. Chicken wings are the reason I could never be a vegetarian - and I'm here to tell you that with these around, I now have one less excuse not to get on board with the non-meat eaters.

The best part is that they are vegan and when compared to normal chicken wings they are immensely lower in saturated fat and calories (180 calories from 3 pieces). They are also precooked, so they are easy to prepare. You can microwave them or boil them in the bag. The downside to these wings (thanks for pointing this out Kirk) is the gargantuan amount of sodium. In just 1 serving of 3 wings, there is 1000 mg (almost half of the daily value).

If it weren't for that, this would get 5 stars.

Did you check out the sodium (salt) content in these? 1000mg of salt in 1 serving! They're so salt they taste like salt -- salt is listed FOUR TIMES on the ingredients panel. If they want to make them spicy how about some chili peppers!

I'd never buy these again.
