# Veggie-Packed Chicken Nuggets Farmwise's Chicken Veggie Nuggets Reinvent a Familiar Form By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2018-09-07 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-veggie-nuggets References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/farmwise-creates-all-in-one-chicken-veggie-nuggets--tenders-300708300.html) & [farmwisefoods](https://farmwisefoods.com/a-healthy-new-take-on-family-favorites-farmwise-chicken-veggie-nuggets-and-tenders/) Farmwise created a Healthier Chicken category with the introduction of its all-new Chicken Veggie Nuggets and Tenders, which boast the same look and texture as the classic chicken products on the outside, with a nutritious, vegetable-packed filling. The Chicken Veggie Nuggets and Tenders are prepared with 100% white meat from cage-free chickens that are raised without antibiotics or hormones. Biting into the breaded products reveals chicken meat blended with finely chopped farm-grown, Non-GMO broccoli, carrots, white beans and potatoes for a fresh new take on a lunch, dinner and snack staple. As it's often advisable to serve chicken nuggets alongside vegetables for a well-balanced meal, this new product simplifies mealtime. With gluten-free breading, the new products are free from the top eight allergens and provide, at a minimum, 10 grams of protein, as well as Vitamins A, C and K. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Healthier Chicken:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the chicken industry by creating products that combine chicken with nutritious, vegetable-packed fillings. - **Gluten-free Breading:** Potential for disruptive innovation in the food industry by developing gluten-free breadings that cater to consumers with gluten allergies or dietary preferences. - **Plant-based Protein:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the protein industry by creating plant-based alternatives to traditional chicken products that are appealing to both vegetarians and meat-eaters. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the food industry by creating healthier chicken products with vegetable-packed fillings that cater to health-conscious consumers. - **Allergen-free Products:** Potential for disruptive innovation in the food industry by developing allergen-free products, such as gluten-free breadings, to cater to consumers with specific dietary restrictions or preferences. - **Plant-based Food:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the food industry by creating plant-based alternatives to traditional chicken products that appeal to consumers seeking sustainable and ethical food options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pea-Based Vegan Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-nugget.md) - [Prehistoric Free-From Chicken Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dino-nuggets.md) - [Veggie-Infused Chicken Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perdue-chicken-plus-snackers.md) - [Breaded Chicken Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perdue-chicken-plus-chicken-tots.md) - [Dairy-Free Chicken Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fry-the-coop.md) - [Plant-Based Foodservice Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mycoprotein-nuggets.md) - [Vegan Chicken Nugget Alternatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impossible-chicken-nuggets-1.md) - [Cauliflower-Breaded Chicken Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-natural-chicken-bites.md) - [High-Protein Chicken Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tyson-simple-ingredient-nuggets.md)
