Aimen Halim says he purchased the \u0027boneless wings\u0027 at Buffalo Wild Wings in January only to discover that they were, in fact, composed of chicken breast
An Associated Press story last month called the boneless wing a “culinary lie” and one example of a category of “gentle impostors” that includes imitation crab meat and baby carrots . Cookbook author and TV personality Christopher Kimball told the news service that most consumers have “no idea where any of this stuff comes from.”
Like many who lament the rise of the “boneless wing,” Halim’s lawsuit traces its origin to rising costs for chicken wings. In the recession of 2008, it says, poultry processors experienced a downturn in demand for breast meat, while demand for wings — deemed an affordable luxury — soared.Article content
In response to The Washington Post’s email seeking comment, Buffalo Wild Wings sent a link to a tweet in which the company sounded a cheekily defiant note. “It’s true,” the tweet reads. “Our boneless wings are all white meat chicken. Our hamburgers contain no ham. Our buffalo wings are 0 per cent buffalo.”
