Bojangles Buffalo Bites

Never heard of them, what are they, chicken bites? Are they breaded?

My question is what exactly is one serving? Is this what they give
you in the little paper cups? I haven't been able to find any
statement on what a serving is.

No, they are unbreaded chicken bits, good, too. However, I think the
calorie info must be wrong.

I think one serving is one chicken bit. ;-)

haha....that might actually make more sense that what's listed.

AFAIK, we don't have Bojangles in Texas. 🙁

Hey Rodger, I googled it for you....this site says "One order". I have no
Idea about how large "one order" is...I live in Las Vegas, and them thangs
are not here, LOL.

Roger, I did a bit of a FitDay search on chicken, and here's what I
found for "Chicken, breast, with or without bone, roasted, NS as to
skin eaten":

For 3.25 ounces, boneless, cooked
Calories: 180
Fat: 7.11 g
Carbs: 0 g
Protein: 27.23 g

I suspect that they put something a bit carby on these chicken bites
to make them taste good. This would increase the carbs and slightly
decrease the fat and protein.

The serving size of 3.25 ounces seems to me to be fairly generous.

Hope this helps.

Thank you Jo Anne. I don't know what one order or a serving weighs, so I
guess I'll figure that out and then I'll know better.

The reason I'm concerned about this is that for the last couple of days I've
been sort of just eating BB & nuts. Adding up the calories it came out to
only about 800 for two days. Yet, I'm barely hungry. Yesterday, I had
peanuts for lunch (340 kcals) and two orders of BB (360 kcals) for dinner,
plus some strawberries (about 9 oz - 78 kcals)). I was stuffed after
dinner, too. That's barely 800 kcals. The day before was like that and
today is too.

Something seems wrong. Either I have a toomah or they are lying!.

That happens.......I picked up a jar of Better than Bouillon at Whole Foods
once, there was supposed to be 40 grams of protein in a serving but someone
in our local weightloss surgery support group called the company to verify
the amount and it was actually only 4 grams. Man was I ticked, that stuff
ain't cheap and I'd bought 4 jars of the chicken broth kind......I returned
it all to the store. Whole Foods is very good to take returns like that.

Weird. They are not in Northern Virginia, or DC, but they are in
Maryland and the rest of VA. Go figure.

Oh well, until Popeye's brings the blacked chicken strips back. *sigh*

Thanks, Melodie. Actually, I did google and I found this....but I guess my
problem is I still don't believe the numbers. That's based partly on the
fact that I've been eating about 800 kcals a day over the last 3 days, and
BBB were a good part of those calories. No hunger!

No, too busy right now (that's why I'm at my PCs all day). I am going on a
multi-day riding event this weekend. I hope to do my first century
(105miles) on my 'bent on Saturday. I don't plan to keep this up, though.
I was just playing around with "eating to your hunger" since I didn't want
to spend time to go to the gym. So, my plan was this: Eat only when you're
hungry, and eat a small amount. Wait 15 minutes before eating any more.
Repeat. Doing this, with what I was eating, I ended up with that. Not
forced by any means.

Could be the results of something you did or what your body chemistry is at
the time....then your hunger might rebound. If you are in a true burning fat
stage, the keytones of your burning fat may be doing their job, ie,
suppressing your appetite. This is actually a dangerous zone for me, since
if I don't eat, my family tree tends to be hypoglycemic, and I will CRASH
real hard. I actually will eat by route if I have those weird "not hungry"
days since I know enough protein is important for my HEART muscle, and
enough fat to keep the protein from just converting to too much blood
glucose and send me back to cravings land.

I googled too and came up with no definitive answer. I would suspect an
email to the Bojangles folk would tell you how many pieces are in a
serving, or at the least, how much weight is in a serving.
