Impossible Foods says its consumer research showed that on average, Aussies consume 47 kilograms of chicken per year, however meat consumption is on the decline, with 42 per cent of Australians eating less meat or no meat at all.

Impossible Chicken Nuggets are 100 per cent animal free, contain no animal hormones or antibiotics and have a 4/5 Health Star Rating.

Per serving, Impossible Nuggets contain 12.5 grams of protein and 2.8 grams of fibre per serving, and have 65 per cent less saturated fat and 40 per cent less total fat than Australian animal chicken nuggets.

The nuggets come fully cooked and ready to prepare in the oven, air fryer, or microwave.

Impossible Chicken Nuggets will be available to purchase through Woolworth stores, online and in-store at the freezer section. These retail at $13.65 for a 383 gram pack, containing 18-20 nuggets.
