    There are these chicken bites that advertise “high in protein!” on the pack, then you look and see it’s 9 grams…

    Like, how do you make chicken bites have only 9 grams of protein??

    They’re actively trying to remove protein from the chicken to make it that low.

      Easy, 5% chicken and the 95% is bread and other garbage. There is “chicken” in there somewhere

      Moat likely it is either breading or fillers that means there is less chicken than you would expect.
