Share to warn your friends! These might look healthier than traditional chicken nuggets, but the ingredients tell the truth.
Impossible says they “source genetically engineered soy protein for our products”. This means it’s GMO.
GMO soybeans are designed to be doused with heavy amounts of synthetic pesticides and herbicides (like Roundup) and may still contain residues of these chemicals.
Impossible Chicken Nuggets are made with several ingredients that are most likely from GMO crops - including soy protein concentrate, soybean oil, dextrose, corn flour, and sugar.
And then all those ultraprocessed ingredients…
❌ METHYLCELLULOSE: This thickener & emulsifier is usually made from wood, because it’s cheap. It may alter gut bacteria, increase the risk of inflammatory bowel disease, metabolic syndrome, significant weight gain, and cancer.
❌ SOYBEAN OIL: One of the most unhealthy vegetable oils, known to increase the risk of obesity, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and autoimmune diseases.
❌ YEAST EXTRACT: Hidden form of MSG - contains free glutamic acid, which is the main component of MSG. Purely used to increase food cravings and irresistibility, so you eat more than you should.
