Retsy Series 1 · Card 0683 · 00-SNK
Dig in, junior paleontologist.
Frozen chicken nuggets shaped like dinosaur bones, sold with a ketchup tar pit and a paper fossil map.
The story · 2007
Fossil Dig Nuggets turned dinner into an excavation. The nuggets were shaped like bones, skulls and claws, and the box had a dotted outline for laying them out into a full skeleton before eating. Ketchup was the tar pit. Most kids built a dinosaur, gave it a name and then ate it from the tail up.
Nobody ever found enough skull pieces in one bag, which kept families buying a second bag just in case.

Fossil Dig Nuggets comes in six finishes: 100 Base, 50 Holo, 25 Laser and 10 Gold copies, plus one Super Laser and one Misprint that exist exactly once. Every copy is minted to the wallet that rips it, with its own serial number.
