If you're a chicken nugget fan then this could be just the news you've been waiting for. Lidl have revealed they will be stocking McDonald's-style chicken nuggets for a limited time only.

Priced at £1.69 for a pack of 10, instead of the £2.99 in McDonald's for just six, they even come in a box similar to what you would get from the fast food chain. Of course they don't have the added convenience of being ready to eat straight out of the pack though.

Lidl announced their new range on Twitter yesterday saying, 'Once they're gone, they're gone.' Implying that these 'chef select' chicken nuggets could be just a limited offer.

The reaction to these new nuggets has been mixed, with some more concerned about the quality of the chicken in the product, however others are very excited about the new range such as Nicole Cara who couldn't wait to try them and went to Lidl a day early!

These chicken nuggets are being sold in packs of 10 and 20 with curry and sweet & soup dips, however the dips aren't to everyone's taste, with one Twitter user commenting, 'They're very nice but not so sure about the dips.'

It had previously been reported that the nuggets in these packs come from the same factory that supply McDonald's, but they are the wrong shape to be used at the fast food restaurant, however Lidl told Digital Spy that this is "absolutely not the case", but could confirm the launch of the new nuggets.
