On the food program they told me that most Chicken nuggets are not counted because they dont have CNS labels (I think that is what they are called) so they dont know how much is "meat" to credit to the meal. Supposedly Schwans offers the required labels or product info sheets so you can credit their chicken nuggets. That is what my food program lady told me. I dont use Schwans but I thought that might be helpful information.
i was told the chicken nuggets counted as meat if i served a double portion, (regardless if it had a CN label) but not as a bread component for the breading. i served them for the first time last month, (i just joined FP in january) and was credited for them, so i guess it was O.K.
