Log it in Doydum and a row of tomatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Chicken nuggets are bite-sized pieces of minced or chopped chicken coated in batter or breadcrumbs, then fried or baked. They come in boxes at fast-food chains and from the freezer aisle, usually with a dipping sauce.
Dipping sauces count separately, and oven-baked frozen nuggets can differ from fried ones, so check the pack.
