Would leave 0/5 if I could. Honestly disgusting and the cardboard flavour absorbed everything I tried to cover or marinade it with. Worse than quorn.

After watching four YouTubers I follow rave about Daring I decided to track down the product and give it whirl. I purchased one bag each of the original and Cajun at the Fresh Thyme Harpers Point Ohio... See more

This was gross. The breaded nuggets are essentially rolled up deli style meat that gets super chewy once baked. You can actually see it unroll while eating, weird.

Company details

Written by the company

100% Plant-Based. 1000% Not Chicken. How do you make chicken jealous? Simple. You take a few natural, wholesome ingredients and craft them into perfectly textured pieces of plant-based yumminess that look, cook and taste just like the animal-based meat. You can give meatless Mondays a try. Go full-on vegan. Or just part-time vegan. daring makes it easy. It's one small swap for you. One giant leap towards eating, feeling, and treating the planet better.

I love this product

I love this product. The first order was damaged and sent back. I'm assuming because of the USPS issues of late. They sent me another order free of charge, but as of now I haven't seen it reflected in my account. I did receive the new order, but it was thawed out when I received it. I'm assuming it was USPS, but could have been bad packaging, as my dog food always comes frozen with no problem. The product itself is tasty, easy to prepare and add to different recipes. The 4 stars is because of packaging and delivery issues and If I really get my money back or not.

Amazing Daring

Amazing flavor, smell and taste. Shocking that its not chicken but not scary enough that you wouldn't want to try it! I really enjoy/ appreciate the fact that its made with simple ingredients. I've been transitioning to simple, natural and healthy ingredients in my life and this is perfect. The 10oz bags comes with more than enough pieces for the money spent on this delicious product. Being vegan I'm not a fan of seitan as a substitute but this is it! I've found my love for vegan meat alternatives. I bought 6 bags of the original flavor (I'm picky with flavors and try and avoid extra seasoning) I made a chickn with onions and peppers stir fry and all I can say Is YUM AND MOUTH WATERING!! Thanksgiving and Christmas is going to be life changing!

Daring Foods is so tasty

Daring Foods is so tasty! I love how it is pre-spiced, tastes delicious and not overpowering at all. Easy to cool in 5 minutes. Tastes and feels like regular chicken.

Looks just like “chicken” and you can treat it as such. Nice chunky pieces. I like it! I would love to carry products like this for resell. Can’t wait to see what you do next. Keep up the good job!

Amazing Product

I was so glad to find Daring had online ordering available. The only store that had your product in my area sold out a few weeks ago. This is honestly the best plant based chicken I have ever had so I'm excited to be able to have it again via direct order. I had no issues making the order through the website. Now to just wait until it arrives!

My only problem with the website is that I have to download an app to track my order. Other than that, it was great! Can't wait to receive my "chicken!"

Would love this product to be on amazon…

Would live this product to be on amazon or something else where shipping is less expensive. Similarly, product cost needs to come in line with or near what I would pay for organic chicken at a whole foods (which as of my writing is $7.99/lb compared to $16/lb I have to pay for daring). This is outside of Walmart's $2.99/lb. Hopefully, sales will allow daring to scale up, since plant based chicken that actually tastes like chicken and can be cooked like chicken is desperately needed!

Edit: The chicken also feels slightly rubbery. Might need more water, I haven't tried brining it, but i'm not sure if that would work similarly to regular chicken.

Daring Foods plant-based chicken tastes…

Daring Foods plant-based chicken tastes amazing! As a flexitarian, I'm reducing my meat consumption and adding more plant-based foods to my diet. As I transition to healthier, more humane, food choices for my body and the planet, Daring chicken is hands down the best plant-based chicken I've had. It has a wonderful flavor, texture, and crisps up in the pan. Even my kids like it! I would highly recommend this to vegans, vegetarians, and flexitarians, like me, who are working towards eliminating meat from their diets. This chicken is a game-changer. It's daring and delicious!
