SPICY CHICKEN SLIDERS

Today we are heading to the frozen food aisle in America to have a look at a product that is available and may make an interesting read.

We are first going to look at the brand behind today’s food product – Tyson Foods. This is a corporation that specialises in frozen produce. Their headquarters is located in Springdale in Arkansas and is the worlds second largest processor of chicken, beef and pork.

In March 2023, it was announced that they were set to go on a new venture – Chicken Sliders. The idea behind the frozen produce is to create a frozen product that is the similar quality to a fast food restaurant. They were available in both original and spicy flavours. Each frozen package contains eight sandwiches in the 21oz package and are available in most grocery store for the price of $8.99. There are two flavours available plain and today we are going to look at the other option – spicy.

The spicy flavour contains dried hot sauce, turmeric, paprika and dried onions to name a few of the ingredients. The chicken breast is covered in a breaded coating and also comes with a bun as well. According to the box information, each serving contains 4 sliders and is 410 calories,
