OOP: Guys just because people do like them doesn’t mean that this is not stupid food. A breaded nugget shaped patty of breakfast food is pretty stupid to me lol.
Comments
Commenter 1: Because the idea of a sausage, egg and cheese hot pocket is genius. And these are essentially mini sausage , egg and cheese hot pockets. What’s there not to like?
OOP: Breakfast hot pockets already exist along with lots of other things like that. This is mushy breakfast food that is shaped to resemble a chicken nugget and covered with the same breading as a chicken nugget. Gross and not genius to me.
Commenter 2: You make it sound like they are removing breading from a chicken nugget and wrapping it around sausage, egg and cheese. It’s just a little breakfast sandwich pocket. They probably get crispy in the oven like pizza pockets. That sounds tasty. Especially if you dunk in some syrup.
OOP: I’m sorry, I am being hard-headed and will not budge on this one. Out of curiosity, I looked up what they look like on the inside (actual customer photos) and it just made me stronger in my opinion. But yeah it’s truly the same breading as a flipping chicken nugget. The reviews said they are very much like a chicken nugget. I will not be gaslit into thinking this is not stupid!!!

So guys I got a lot of hate for calling Jimmy Dean Breakfast Nuggets stupid food a few weeks ago so I decided to give these lil dummies a try. I threw them in my air fryer with low expectations but as they started to cook I could smell the wonderfully greasiness that can only be expected from such gluttonous food. I pull them out after 10 minutes and to my surprise they looked crunchy, not to my surprise they looked just like chicken nuggets. I slowly lifted the nug to my mouth and took a bite with deep reservations.
As I started chewing, I could feel the embarrassment wash over my face and realized it was not the nugget that was stupid, it was me. These delish little sausage pillows had my mouth watering. Savory and crunchy. What’s not to like. They can be dipped in hot sauce or even syrup. The possibilities are endless. So Reddit, my apologies. I sincerely take it back.

photo evidence for proof
Image Description: A picture of cooked breakfast nuggets out from air fryer. Two plates are next to each other with nuggets. The first plate shown at the top of the picture has multiple nuggets with some ketchup. On second plate below the first plate, three nuggets are stacked altogether with fourth nugget separated and is newly cut with a fork and a knife.

RitaAlbertson: See, if someone else offered me one, I’d try it, but I’d never spend my own money on them. I’ve had savory Breakfast Strudels and those things are NASTY (or at least were nasty a decade or so ago when I tried them) – I realize they’re nothing alike but they have just made me leery of savory breakfast convenience foods.
OOP: Rita where were you when I was getting absolutely annihilated?
