Chicken nuggets
More likely to cause discomfort because chicken nuggets is typically rich, fried, sugary, alcoholic, or otherwise symptom-triggering.
Why it received this rating
Chicken nuggets are usually breaded, fried or oil-rich, and higher in sodium than plain chicken. A small portion may be tolerated, but they are less protein-efficient than grilled chicken.
Portion and preparation guidance
Try 4–6 baked or air-fried nuggets with fruit or a cooked vegetable rather than fries.
