Man sues Buffalo Wild Wings, saying 'boneless wings' are actually just chicken nuggets

He is right and he will get his justice! ✊

I'm going to sue the maker of Lucky Charms because my life hasn't improved one iota since I started eating it!

Why do people still keep eating chicken nuggets, which are made from what was called pink slime once?

The pink slime is a binder that forms the ground chicken into a solid piece of meat. It's really not that bad, classical cooks have techniques to do something similar to make terrines and some kinds of charcuterie.

Most of the industrial food manufacturing that people find so disgusting is straight of French haute cuisine. They just automate it and use cheaper ingredients.

He is right and that’s why these chains always offer discounts on these fake wings. They are not fucking wings and should not be advertised as such. A boneless wing is a wing in which the bones have been removed not fkin chunk of chicken cutlet or breast.

Calling them "boneless wings" allows them to charge the same price for chicken nuggets as they are for wings. That's like a two or three dollar markup per plate.

As silly as this lawsuit is, boneless wings is such a dumb term. It is nothing but a chicken nugget, you are either eating wings or you are not.

[quote] The pink slime is a binder that forms the ground chicken into a solid piece of meat. It's really not that bad,

The product is not allowed in Canada [bold] due to the presence of ammonia[/bold], and is banned for human consumption in the European Union.

The term "pink slime", a reference to the product's "distinctive look",[36] was coined in 2002 by Zirnstein in an internal FSIS e-mail.[28][33][37] Expressing concern that ammonia should be mentioned on the labels of packaged ground beef to which the treated trimmings are added, Zirnstein stated "I do not consider the stuff to be ground beef, and I consider allowing it in ground beef to be a form of fraudulent labeling".[28] He later stated that his main concern was that connective tissue is not "meat", and that ground beef to which the product had been added should not be called ground beef, since it is not nutritionally equivalent to regular ground beef

R7 It allows them to do cunt practices like advertise on billboards and the internet Wings only 9.99 only to get the establishment and discover the promo only applies to boneless wings. But they aren’t even wings to begin with.

R8 There is a such thing as boneless wings. You can buy frozen ones and authentic wing places sometimes have them— the bones have been removed.

I hope he's successful with his lawsuit. So many restaurants get away with this kind of false advertising.

There should be a class-action suit against McDonald's to reinstate potato wedges.

That reminds me of the McDonald's hot coffee case, where a customer's pussy lips melted when the coffee fell into her lap. Many saw it as ridiculous and almost fraudulent, but McDonalds was really in the wrong here overheating the brew making it unsafe to handle.

[quote] The coffee was not just “hot,” but dangerously hot. McDonald’s corporate policy was to serve it at a temperature that could cause serious burns in seconds. Mrs. Liebeck’s injuries were far from frivolous. She was wearing sweatpants that absorbed the coffee and kept it against her skin. She suffered third-degree burns (the most serious kind) and required skin grafts on her inner thighs and elsewhere.

"Buffalos don't have wings!"

R14 This is nothing like that lawsuit. The McDonalds case was clear tort law abuse under the guise of a stupid ass bitch who didn’t possess common sense or lack of clumsiness.

This is false advertisement.

He sues fat.

Next he’s suing Girls Gone Wild because he also got no bones

R15 yea but we do have curves.

I want Judge Judy to hear this case.

R14 It was an elderly woman who almost died. There's no reason to be serving food at scalding temperatures that would violate OSHA safety standards. It was like 80° hotter than it needed to be.

R21 was that the issue. I thought the issue was they didn’t have a warning label on the cup which they now do. I occasionally get coffee from McDonald’s. And it is hot and will burn you if it spills on your lap. So they reduced the temp? It’s still hot.

They should have just changed the spelling to Wingz to get around them not being real wings.

r21, the point is that, in general, there seems to be this attitude that these kinds of cases are a) fraudulent and b) the customers are being stupid as fuck, arguing in favor of big business for some reason.

R22 They both lowered the temperature and added a warning label.

Fat whoredome takes a new twist.

R24 I certainly hope those aren't organic opinions. Never shill for a corporation unless you're being paid, DL!

McDonalds had been warned that they were serving coffee at a dangerously high temperature. They kept the coffee scalding hot so customers would be able to get fewer refills. Typical corporation cost saving measure...until the burnt cooter incident.

I thought it was to disguise the taste. The hotter the coffee, the less you can taste it.

Where I’m from the weather is so hot coffee never cools. Never knew it was like that in America.

Cooter lips aside, the are few things more annoying than being served a lukewarm cup of coffee.

[quote]I certainly hope those aren't organic opinions. Never shill for a corporation unless you're being paid, DL!

Sadly, I think there are idiots out there who defend big business like it's their own. It doesn't make sense to me at all, but they exist.

I am ALWAYS on the side of anyone suing a business, even if they're lying.

R33 Me too but THIS is where I draw the line.

Can't we all just value honesty and fair play?

Parts is parts.

He has a point. Many people are very stupid and its best to tell everybody exactly what something is otherwise some will not understand. They have no curiosity and no intuition about such matters.

$100 says the plaintiff is a fatty.

This should be a class action suit!

This should be a lower-class action suit!

Ummm.....

R40 I stand corrected!!

I get it - I bought a cake pop once and it was a Dunkin Donuts Munchkin on a kebab stick!

I once ate at a Buffalo Wild Wings and it was in Topeka, Kansas. Plus I thought I was going to eat buffalo meat. That's false advertising--I'm suing!

R44 you are a fkin idiot.

r44=Jessica Simpson

Well, I. personally take umbrage to the use of the word “wild”. They seem perfectly domesticated to me.

I remember going to Chili's about twenty years ago, and ordering steak fajitas which were advertised on the menu as '1/2 pound of steak'. When my dinner came out, I could tell there was much less than a 1/2 pound of steak in the grill. I called the waitress over who called over the manager. The manager assured me that there was a half-pound of steak in my order - they all come prepared and pre-weighed to 4 oz. I asked her how many ounces were in a pound and she said - quite assuredly - 8 oz. I, and others at my table, had to tell her it was 16 oz. (She ended up not charging me for the meal ).

Honestly, who gives a fuck if boneless wings are actually wings? Chicken wings are the biggest culinary scam in history. They are mostly bones, skin, and sinew, with only a tiny bit of meat. When I was in my 20s I used to buy wings at the grocery store all the time for less than a dollar a pound (early 90s.) They were great for making stock after eating as much of the meat off as I could.

Then the buffalo wing craze stormed the nation. Mixing butter with hot sauce drove the price of chicken wings out of control. I switched to thighs since, due to the low fat craze, the price of breasts went up and up. Thighs have been increasing in price over the last 5 to 10 years, as people have discovered that they taste better, and all of the idiot keto and primal people have started devouring them.

I'll get slammed for this but I'd rather eat a mcnugget than an actual wing -- I'm fairly grossed out by any meat served on the bone. The only chicken I buy are breast fillets. I generally don't have baby tastes, but this is definitely a big one.

I think we should all rise up and demand those fast food workers go back to wear those brown, yellow and red nylon uniforms.

I'd sue the huckster who convinced morons that "chicken wings" should be a thing. Too much work for too little meat.

Modern steroid wings can have quite a bit of meat.

This is a desperate man with a desperate plan.

[quote]Too much work for too little meat.

The story of my dating life.

[quote]I'd sue the huckster who convinced morons that "chicken wings" should be a thing. Too much work for too little meat.

As far as I'm concerned, you can say the same thing about crab, and, to a lesser extent, lobster.

I wonder if the guy would settle for free boneless wings for life.

He's probably already settled for a permanent boneless sex life.

Maybe you should buy better wings. The ones uses in low priced restaurants and for bar food are the worst. I don't mind gnawing on wings. There are those two bites of real meat and then you have to work to get some more morsels. Helps one avoid being a BIG FAT WHORE.

R11, I can’t find a reference to a boneless wing being a wing with bones removed, but many describing them as a piece of chicken breast cut into the shape of a wing and then breaded, deep fried and sauced. I’ve also never had a “boneless” chicken wing that seemed to be a deboned wing. Where do you get them? Who serves them?

Please type fat with me.

What's the difference between a boneless wing and a chicken tender? Or those chicken fingers they serve at Cane's? Will someone sue because they're not make of actual fingers?

Sheesh R61, now that you’ve put it out there, someone will surely sue. A chicken savant that knows chickens don’t have fingers, for example

Who the fuck eats this shit, anyhow?

And btw, you’re a complete IDIOT if you think Buffalo have “wings”.

[quote] Who the fuck eats this shit, anyhow?

Fat poors. Have you not been paying attention?

[quote] And btw, you’re a complete IDIOT if you think Buffalo have “wings”.

Why do you hate Native Americans ?

I'm going to sue the farmers and advertise 'baby carrots'

Buffalo Wild Wings @BWWings

It’s true. Our boneless wings are all white meat chicken. Our hamburgers contain no ham. Our buffalo wings are 0% buffalo.

𝑨 𝒇𝒆𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝒋𝒖𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒐𝒊𝒔 𝒉𝒂𝒔 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 a Chicago man’s class-action lawsuit against Buffalo Wild Wings over the type of meat inside the so-called “boneless” chicken wings, but lawyers for the plaintiff say they intend to refile the complaint.

ust this past February, Ted Anthony of the Associated Press called boneless wings a “culinary lie” — along with “baby carrots” and “Chilean sea bass” — in an impassioned article.

And in September 2020, Ander Christensen, a citizen of Lincoln, Nebraska, made an impassioned speech on the subject when the floor was opened to the public for comments during a Lincoln City Council meeting.

“We’ve been living a lie,” he said to members of the council, with many present erupting into laughter, although he reprimanded the giggles from the gallery and continued his credo. “𝐼 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑤𝑒 𝑎𝑠 𝑎 𝑐𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑚 𝑏𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑛 𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑠 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠 — 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑜𝑢𝑟 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑠.”

I know there are stuffed boneless wings in Chinese cuisine. They would never fly in AmeriCanadian restaurants because the labour costs would be too high to prepare.

There are two good things about buffalo wild wings: they have 20 types of beer on tap and the restaurant is hot straight bro central. I have to go in there regularly (doordash driver). I always scan the dining room to see if there are any hotties.

Next you'll be telling me they don't use real Girl Scouts in Girl Scout cookies.

I know. Who is the low rent, wanna be fancy Queen bashing wings. Wings are fantastic when done correctly. And that’s just buffalo wings. Soul food chicken wings are a masterpiece when done right.

That's just fried chicken, but agreed. Buffalo wings are a great American dish and anyone bashing them is a wannabe classy loser.

He is correct.

My ears burning.

BWW should do a new marketing campaign to bring in the eldergay crowd--old, tired Lucy and her gang of Wing Ding dancers.

And next you'll be telling me that Golden Corral is neither in a corral or made of gold. FALSE ADVERTISING!!!

It's not, but its customers are from corrals.

R72 That’s what I said. What do you mean that’s just fried chicken. Those are fried chicken wings.

R76, Hi there I got you something for Easter.

Chickpeas are neither chick, nor pea. FALSE ADVERTISING.

The Prince of Tides was neither about A Prince, nor Tides. I'm suing the book publisher and the movie studio for false advertising.

R81 and you are the Sinbad of jokes.

R81 was not a sin, but it was bad.

Those who can't do, critique.

R56 - I agree. Lobsters and crabs are gross. If someone wants to crack them and pull the meat out for me, that's fine, but I don't want to do all that work.

^ Fat lazy whore. Some of my best childhood memories from Maryland were family crab feasts. It took hours to crack and eat the crabs, but that was part of the fun. Socializing with the family on a hot summer's dayj.

R83 lol good wordplay.

R86, omg. You literally took the words from me.

R86 suffers from a very bad case of crabs, poor thing.

R89, if you aren’t from the East coast specifically the Chesapeake or DC area you wouldn’t understand.

Golden corral= pigateria

R68 I've had those in Thai restaurants. They're called Angel Wings.

I took a friend of mine to eat Thai restaurant and he was a little confused how you get full off of one chicken. Somehow they're augmented and stuffed to the brim with some kind of shrimp chicken mixture so you get full off of one getting you with rice or noodles. Delicious!
