Store-Bought Vegan Chicken Products You Need to Try

Good news for our feathered friends! Vegan chicken products are taking over grocery stores, sparing sensitive, social birds from a lifetime of suffering.

Whether you’re craving wings, nuggets, or a patty, these vegan versions will wow your taste buds—without any of the cruelty. And honestly? They’re something to bawk about.

Just Chicken

After winning over shoppers with its zero-cholesterol, hen-friendly vegan egg, Eat Just—PETA’s 2025 Company of the Year—took things to the next level with Just Chicken. This frozen, shredded flesh-free “chicken” comes in a variety of flavors, including Original, Sesame Ginger, Buffalo, and Chili Lime. It’s endlessly versatile: Load it onto tacos, toss it into salads, build out satisfying bowls, or enjoy it straight from the pan. You can find it at major retailers like Walmart, Sprouts, Albertsons, United, Stop & Shop, and more.

MorningStar Farms Chik’n

Although some MorningStar Farms products use milk and eggs taken from cows and chickens, the brand has many tasty vegan options, including all its tasty Chick’n patties, nuggets, and fries. Some of our favorites include Buffalo Chik’n Patties, Chik’n Nuggets, and BBQ Chik’n Nuggets. It’s best to double-check the ingredients list before buying.

NotChicken

Latin American brand NotCo launched NotMilk and NotBurger in the U.S. and is now expanding into the vegan chicken market with nuggets, chicken burgers, crispy patties, and grilled-style fillets. Its products have made a splash outside the U.S. and have even been included as part of Burger King Chile’s vegan options. Find it at your local Sprouts store.

Beyond Chicken

Already a powerhouse in the vegan scene, Beyond Meat delivers big on flavor and texture with its Beyond Chicken lineup. The Beyond Chicken Pieces are juicy, tender, and unbreaded—perfect for tossing into stir-fries, wrapping up in tortillas, or adding to salads and bowls. They come in delicious flavors like Original, Spicy Buffalo, and Lemon Herb, making it easy to switch up your meals.

Beyond Chicken Nuggets are kid-friendly favorites that everyone can agree on. Packed with 14 grams of protein per serving, they’re crispy, satisfying, and great for snack time.

More chickens are raised and killed for food than all other land animals combined, so by creating a vegan chicken option, Beyond Meat is helping to put an end to this violence.

You can find these products in the frozen aisle at some of the most popular retailers, including Walmart, Target, Kroger, and more—so keep an eye out next time you shop, or check the website’s store locator to see if they’re in stock at a grocer near you.

Gardein Ultimate Plant-Based Chick’n

Gardein’s Chick’n Tenders, Chick’n Nuggets, and Chick’n Filets have a crispy coating that’s flavorful enough to eat on its own and perfect when dipped in your favorite sauce.

Daring Foods

Daring Foods makes four flavors of versatile vegan chicken pieces: Original, Original Breaded, Lemon & Herb, and Cajun. The rapidly growing brand even has a celebrity investor—Canadian rapper Drake joined a funding round that will allow Daring Foods to expand to even more retailers. You can currently find its products in Sprouts, Kroger, Costco, and other stores.

Spare Animals With Every Meal!

When left in peace, chickens spend their time building nests, basking in the sun, and raising their families. On farms and in slaughterhouses, their lives consist of filth, pain, and fear. Every time you choose a vegan option, you spare a living, feeling individual who didn’t want to be killed.
