Simply Smart Chicken Nuggets

Breakdown

Ultra-processed

Perdue Simply Smart Chicken Nuggets scores 90/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Perdue Simply Smart Chicken Nuggets lists 15 ingredients, starting with Organic Boneless Chicken Breast With Rib Meat, Water, Organic Rice Flour, Organic Yellow Corn Flour and Organic Yellow Corn Meal. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
