Funny smell and taste

I bought these nuggets a few months sho because I tried the demo and they were on sale. They were surprisingly good and the grandkids liked them. I just purchased another bag. When I opened the bag I thought they smelled like fish sticks. So I cooked some in the air fryer and the breading also tasted like fish. It's the only way I can describe the odd smell and taste. Not sure if I can return the opened bag but we won't be eating these.

Fishy burnt taste with new recipe

We have been purchasing these nuggets for years and they have been great. The most recent bag we purchased was very bad. They smelled and tasted like fish. There is definitely something wrong with the new recipe they are using and it’s a bummer since they used to great. The taste is not any better than the burnt fish smell.

Is it fish, or is it chicken?

The first couple of bags we bought were fine. But this last one, not so much. It tastes like it was processed at the plant after a bunch of fish sticks were processed without changing the oil first. The fryer oil at the plant is everything. My guess is someone at the plant F'ed up. The numbers on the bag are "P13556" and "2366SDL03 23:45"

WARNING DO NOT BUY! Not like they used to be.

I thought my kids were just being dramatic. I buy 1 or more of these bags every Saturday and have for years. Something has now changed. One kid said they are like rubber and another said they smell fishy now. One thing is for sure, I won't be wasting my money on them anymore.

Tyson nugget or SpongeBob

We used to LOVE these … but something has happened.? The texture is COMPLETELY off. This last bag we purchased is different than they used to be. As if you took SpongeBob SquarePants, covered him in breadcrumbs and fried him. But don't wait too long to eat, they will also shrink and shrivel up the same way he did off the coast of bikini bottom if you don't eat them within 5-10 minutes of being out of the oven.

Weird smell, taste, and look

I don’t know what happened with this batch or brand, but the smell of these nuggets is horrendous (fishy, plastic-burnt smell). The nuggets don’t look like frozen nuggets, as in, the nuggets have bubble-like lumps before cooking, and some of the nuggets aren’t fully breaded. The inside of the nuggets doesn’t even look like chicken, it’s porous-like, where my child and I couldn’t even eat it because of the smell and the look of the nuggets. I took a bite assuming I cooked it too long, but my goodness, it tasted so bad, and my fingers smelled bad because of whatever chemical or ingredient they put in the nugget! I’m definitely getting my money returned, and definitely not going to buy this brand until they fix this issue.

Change in taste within last month

We bought these months prior and liked them. We then ran out and bought another bag within the last month. It’s a completely different taste, extremely salty to the point it’s so inedible it makes you sick to your stomach from eating them. We immediately asked for a refund and were very disappointed.

Smelt like cow feces

We have bought multiple bags of these chicken nuggets over the last couple years This last bag of chicken nuggets we bought was really bad. We threw out a brand new bag that was purchased not even a week ago. After heating up the chicken nuggets it smelt like cow feces. Immediately threw away the whole bag. Really unfortunate but we will not be buying these chicken nuggets anymore.
