How Nugget Watch works
We read every restaurant's menu from its own ordering app each day and pick out each brand's plain nugget packs by the count in the name (not spicy, grilled or meal versions). The typical price is the median restaurant; price per nugget divides it by the count. Unlike our baskets, nuggets are close enough across brands to compare, though sizes and recipes differ.
