quoted October 21, 2026
Frozen chicken nuggets are quoted at $35.82 / case. That is the lowest wholesale quote we recorded that week from the single New York distributor we track — not a market average, and not an official terminal quotation. The quote covers one case. The supplier publishes no weight for it, so we never restate it per pound.
About Frozen chicken nuggets
Nearly all of this range is prepared rather than raw: breaded boneless breast, cutlets, tenders, and gyro cones and strips, alongside chicken bones for stock. These are manufactured foodservice goods, so their price follows the processing and the pack format at least as much as the underlying chicken market, and they move far less from week to week than a fresh breast does. For a kitchen that needs a fixed portion cost, that stability is the point.
Buying notes
Nearly all of it is bought by the case rather than by the pound, because the case is what the supplier invoices and, for cones and strips, the format is the specification. Check the piece weight in the description before comparing two cutlet or tender cases: a case that yields more portions is not the same purchase as a heavier one.
