Gardenburger Buffalo Chik'n Wings

gardenburger chikn wings First and foremost, these meatless chicken wings are DELICIOUS, but extremely spicy. If you can't handle hot sauce, you can't handle these. But 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.

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 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 are 1000 mg (almost half of the RDA). If it weren't for that, this would get 5 satrs.

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.
