Applegate's chicken nuggets now available in family size
A leading brand of chicken nuggets in natural food stores is making it easier to get lunch and dinner on the table with a new family-size package that delivers convenience and flavor without the high calories, fat and sodium typically associated with the family favorite. Applegate Naturals Family Size Chicken Nuggets will hit freezer cases in January 2012. Applegate is a leading producer of organic and natural meats and cheeses.
The new package contains about 36 chicken nuggets made with farm fresh chicken that was raised humanely and never administered antibiotics, unlike other brands that are labeled natural, but still use antibiotics. A serving of Applegate Naturals Chicken Nuggets contains 180 calories, 9 grams of fat and 210 mg of sodium compared to 220 calories, 13 grams of fat and 470 mg of sodium in the leading conventional brand of chicken nuggets.
