Babyformula is kidsfood.
But that is about it, I think.
Well, unless you want to add pancakes, icecream and candy to that list.
Most of the time it's just different forms of food but it don't make it a red flag to prefer one and not the other.. unless it's to filter out for example non-vegans or something (lifestyle preferences). That makes sence. But saying there are types of food that are childrens food just because they are associated with children's menues are closer to a red flag than eating nuggets (but neither are really valid to say is a red flag, red flags are supposed to be serious points).
I could easily see a dish being formed that are more formal than a heap of nuggets, that could make it seem more mature.
But I'd say nuggets are like chickenwings or big chicken schnitzels.
This question has more to do with what you associate different things with. You obviously want to put people (or guys?) into categories to simplify how you see them. But I think you should maybe be more wary about judging so fast.
I mean, even some of the things that may actually be more questionable habits that some people do have.. like say.. still plays with lego or build modeltrains (that is something I've seen that took me aback first time I heard about it).
It might seem strange, weird or breaking the patteren for the perfect-prince-formula but even those types of people may be absolutely mature and gorgeous inside.
Im just saying, it's not synonymus with red flag to break the norm. And even if something made you cringe a bit, maybe try exploring that quirk about someone before saying they're childish and making assumptions about them. Everyone has quirks (at least anyone real).
It's never inappropriate, it's just stupid to pay a restaurant that much for something you could go buy a big bag of and cook just as well in an airfryer at your own home.
I'd just judge the financial irresponsibility not the nugs, nugs are fucking awesome. People who think making a mess trying to nibble all the meat off the bone of a chicken wing is somehow more mature crack me up, yeah you look real "adult" covered in sauce with a mountain of tiny dirty napkins by you.
Restaurants in general are just a sign of laziness, do you really have a party to large to fit in your house? Or were you just to lazy to keep your house presentable and couldn't be bothered to cook? You chose to spend more on food you could have made yourself and also have to put up with whatever other assholes are in the restaurant the same time you are.
People have some weird things they think about. "kids food"
You can eat whatever is on the menu. You're paying for it.
The restaurant staff will only judge you if you make unreasonable demands or stupid orders like
"Can I have the full English breakfast, but without the black pudding, can I swap that for a bacon and my eggs should be a 6 minutes boiled egg, also I don't want the tomato either, and the beans should touch the egg."
Now this is when they will want you to fuck off. (I worked in a restaurant)
If you order chicken nuggets, they will be happy as it's one of the easiest thing to cook.
And who cares about other customers? You're paying for it, not them.
There’s an age limit? Strips maybe but nuggets most likely I’m eating them in the comfort of my car. Not that I’d really feel judged but I’m most likely at a restaurant where I’d like to try the variety and I don’t like nuggets outside of once maybe every two years I might eat a McDonald’s nugget.

True adults do what they want and ignore the people too immature and petty to judge them based on not following unwritten arbitrary social norms. If I as a 35 year old want to order chicken nuggets and macaroni and cheese in a restaurant, I'm not going to give a damn what snobby, pretentious pseudo-adult sitting across from me at the other table thinks is "immature."
It's like women who think adult men who play video games are "losers," even if these men own homes and are debt-free, while the women criticizing them lives with roommates while in their 30s and can barely pay their own rent or keep their own bedrooms clean.
Also, chicken nuggets are on the kids menu because they're finger foods. Young kids can't exactly use a knife or fork yet. Which is why you rarely see spaghetti or soup on the kids menu. It's all food that is normally eaten by hand.
TL;DR: People need to worry more about their own sh*t in life.
The chicken nugget contains very little actual meat. Rather, nuggets are mostly fat (60%) and other assorted body parts, including nerves, bone, skin, and connective tissue. The chicken parts are ground, then forced under high pressure through screens that reduce the meat, bones, and other parts into a paste. This paste is mixed with chicken skin and "additives". The additives include emulsifiers and thickeners, wheat-based batter, vegetable oil, sodium phosphate, anti-foaming agents, monosodium glutamate (message), anti-caking agents such as calcium silicate, dextrose, yeast extracts, propylene glycol, modified cornstarch, whey (a milk product), and various preservatives and fillers. including starch and sodium phosphate, and then shaped into nuggets.
Yum!
I don't eat that shit. I wouldn't even let my kids eat it.
No age limit. I still enjoy kid's foods such as chicken fingers, fish sticks and Tator tots.
The difference is that as an adult I will spend the money to purchase higher quality (such as REAL Tator tots) rather than the cheap store brands my mother fed us as kids.
I mean if you order chicken nuggets as like your entire meal then there is something wrong with you
But chicken nuggets on the side is fine unless you're going to like one of those really fancy restaurants but in which case I'd much rather just cook at home because by this point here we've went from something more of just a convenience to spending money on food that honestly I could probably do better at making
"Restaurant quality" generally means made a semi-slopily so that way it can be out of the kitchen in a time frame that other customers can get their food without throwing a fit
Sure the food's not bad but it's also not some Divine experience
@ well I think if you're paying for something you can have it anytime you want. I don't want think about this too long or too hard because I know how those chicken nuggets are made but even I go in and order them because actually I order a Happy Meal because I want the apples but I will eat the Nuggets too Do I'm going to say 75 years old
If I knew a woman was arrogant enough to pass judgement on a man's food choices based on social programming I would eat them just to ridicule her childish & mindless sheep-like behavior, otherwise I'd tell her to pick an age that applies to her, but so far as I go, shut up and let me make my own choices; I'm not trying to define "appropriate" for you around my beliefs... at least that's what I'd tell her if she argued my food choices were inappropriate.
The only exception would be if it were a health issue (i. e. I had medical issues & was making destructive choices), then her condemnation of immature judgement would hold validity, otherwise I'd think she's a mindless follower of whatever society tells her to think.
what do you mean? never!
if someone wants to eat something they should be able to.
the fact that it's on the kids menu its a separate issue. what most people disagree with is grown ass people ordering from the children menu since the restaurant doesn't have a simple chicken niggets or a shcnitzel, which is basically a giant nugget, on the normal menu.
Chicken nuggets, chicken tenders, chicken wings... what's the difference? It's chicken. xDI like them all. I have friends in their thirties who order the ten piece nuggets at McDonalds. I don't think we ever grow out of that, and food is food. Enjoy what you like.

Yum!
I eat them. I eat them with BBQ sauce or ketchup.
I eat what I want! If others don’t like it, that’s their problem, not mine! They aren’t eating it, I am, so what business is it of theirs.
Who says what is kids food vs adult food? You eat what tastes good!
I still eat fairy bread at times! Or other things that I ate during my childhood. Because I like it!
At what age does it become inappropriate to judge people for a normal thing?
Let's be honest, judging, labeling and ranting on internet is for people who lack intellectual capacity.
It's never too late to try something 'grown up' like minding your own business so that you don't get too much of free time to cry about most trivial things.
As long as they're not in the shape of dinosaurs or something, I see no problem with adults eating chicken nuggets - they're more grown up than a turkey twizzler.
The only time I'd order them though, would be at a fish 'n' chip shop (I don't eat fish) or, hypothetically speaking, at McDonalds (I've been about three times in my life, after the traumatizing doughnut disaster of '88).
Omg chicken nuggets, especially the ones from Mcdonald's, are great hangover foods and a craving I always have on my period. If you count McDonald's @2am as a restaurant, I think it's fine.
But if I was in a diner or something real I personally wouldn't do it but I think it's fine.
I've never had chicken nuggets, not even as a child, things like that would never have been served in our house. On the rare occasion we were allowed to accompany our parents to a restaurant as children they weren't the type of establishment that had a children's menu, its a long and complicated story of my childhood.
If i'm being dragged to a restaurant that is known for having trash food "but they have a great bar and live music!" they tell me... I will gladly order 5 kids meals worth of chicken tenders and mac and cheese. Hell I dated a girl who's palette was absolute garbage and she would order from the kids menu. Its like ordering a girly drink, who gives a fck what other people think. If you judge me for it on a date I dodged a bullet.
I frequently order from the "kids" menu when going out to eat. Instead of an adult menu, they should call that section the "Fat people's menu." Their portions are usually 1/3 to 1/2 more than what I can eat.
There's an inappropriate age to eat things? Jeez! I just wanna eat my food (that we need to live) in peace
It's inappropriate at any age.
Only if 'you' are from a primitive culture, you won't mind to eat ANYTHING that makes you feel... fed.
never, i have elderly and disabled patients that love chicken nuggets, i dont judge-
I don't think it ever is inappropriate due to age. You like what you like and there is nothing wrong with ordering a wad of chicken. That's like saying you're to old to get meatballs with spaghetti. It's the same thing just a different meat.
