As a one off, I’d let it go. If it became a regular thing, then I’d dig my heals in, and say no. Chicken dippers are as ultra processed, I would argue, (if not more so), than cornflakes. How much proper chicken meat do they contain, or are they made up of minced up grunge? Sorry, I really don’t know, as I don’t eat them, never have, and never will; whereas I’ll admit, I’ve eaten cornflakes in the past, but my assumption is that cornflakes are made from unadulterated corn. (Some one might be along very soon to correct me on this, as I really don’t know the manufacturing process of turning corn into cornflakes - I suppose the real issue arises by how many additives are added during the process, including sugar, which we know, if it’s not a natural sugar, then it, too, is harmful if partaken regularly). However, my understanding is that some chicken products are made from “reformed” parts of the chicken, which will include all sorts of bits, not necessarily pure chicken meat, and perhaps chicken dippers fall into this category - but I’m willing to be corrected if wrong. Don’t forget the coating they are probably covered with, too - what does that contain?
I would not, personally, be feeding such ‘re-formed’ products on a regular basis to anyone in my family.
As I say, a one off, ok (perhaps), but not all the time - though, for me, personally, they don’t figure on my shopping list. Never have.
