Daring Reviews
Experience
My husband is plant-based so I often find myself eating plant-based meals. I have a love-hate relationship with plant-based "meat" but Daring is definitely one of my favorite brands. It tastes good and the texture is great as well. We've used in all types of meals from fried rice, ramen, chicken pasta dishes, etc. We've even eaten the breaded ones as they are as a chicken nugget replacement.

This is life-changing!!!! I’ve been a vegetarian for 11+ years and this is, by far, the best meat substitute I’ve ever tried. The Cajun flavor is a staple in our home, I’m making quesadillas with it tonight. I also love using it on a Caesar salad. I recommend this to everyone and truly believe it could convince the world to go meatless. It’s so good I’m actually slightly terrified it’s real chicken sometimes… The only con is the high price point! I wish we could make a meat free lifestyle more accessible.

The Cajun one is delicious! The flavor is great, and they’re easy to cook. The texture is one of the best I’ve had for meat alternatives, so if you want something very similar to meat, try this out. I look forward to trying the other flavors.

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

Daring makes some of my favorite fake meats currently. It's flavorful and easy to eat in wraps, salads, or just with dressing.

Nobody in our house is vegetarian, but we all enjoy Daring chicken. I tried them because they are also gluten free. We add them to salads. They cook quick and easy. We now keep a bag in the freezer at all times and my daughter frequently asks for her "fake chicken" for dinner.

This is absolutely delicious. It actually the first plant based chicken I've tried that actually tastes like grilled chicken. I also love that it's made from clean ingredients, it definitely makes it easier to support more plant based products.

Really like that there's an option for non-breaded vegetarian chicken out there, and this is really tasty. The texture is different than a lot of the other veg chickens - more of that shreddy texture that real chicken has. Appreciate how many "nugget" options are available on the market, but it's nice to have something that can be used in a wider variety of cooking applications.

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!!!

Experience
As close to the taste and texture of real chicken as you could expect from a plant based brand. Incredible.
