Daring reviews state the brand works as a convincing plant-based chicken: reviewers praise authentic, shreddy chicken-like texture and bold flavors (Cajun, lemon, buffalo) but note inconsistent taste/texture for some flavors and excessive saltiness in a few items. This makes Daring a smart buy for shoppers seeking versatile, non-breaded vegan chicken that sears and grills well, though cautious buyers should expect variability between SKUs and occasional strong salt or off textures.
Daring is great because it is plant-based and uses clean ingredients. The flavor is excellent as well, with a strong flavor that is not overpowering. The buffalo-flavored plant-based chicken wings are my favorite. They are a wonderful healthy alternative to traditional wings.
I've tried both their original chicken pieces and one of their frozen meals. I like their plant-based chicken pieces, but I don't think they are the closest to chicken. They do a fine enough job, but they could be improved some. I do like that these have good ingredients in them. The frozen meal I've tried from them is good. The amount of their plant-based chicken in the bowl felt fair. It's fairly expensive, so I only tried it because of a deep discount.
Daring lived up to the hype! I loved the flavor of the Cajun product. The texture was also on-point. Well done to Daring for nailing plant-based chicken!!!
I love that Daring makes vegan "chicken" that looks and tastes like chicken without all of the heavy breading. It cooked easily on the stovetop. I diced it up and made homemade "chicken" soup with it one day and, on another occasion, I grilled it and then added it to my "chicken" pot pie and it was delicious. I like the original flavor better than the lemon one.

Nice vegan "chicken" alternative without all of the breading.
