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

      I know they're just being smarmy, but I'd point out that the latter two have well-known geographic origins, while "boneless wings" has not similar known meaning.

      I was going to post this reply but you beat me. Bdubs has a great social media manager.

      Murdy I think the whole point in labeling this frivolous is that any rational human knows this, but even if they crawled out from a rock and didn't know they aren't actually wing meat, *suing* for damages over this is frivolous. It just can't be justified as a wrong by the defendant suffered by the plaintiff.

    (and as one response said: "girl scout cookies contain 0% girl scouts". They're not wrong.)

      On the other hand, they could grind up moth, fly, and grasshopper wings and form them into a ball, bread them, and serve them with a tasty sauce, and describe them accurately as 100% boneless wings.

      Anyone remember the Far Side cartoon by Gary Larson that showed an entrance to a "Boneless Chicken Ranch," and there were limp birds lying flat on the ground strewn everywhere? :-)

      Again, Larson was ahead of his time. This cartoon came out in 1983, years and years before the wing craze, yet he called it a "Ranch". Coincidence???????

      Because we know you wanted an update.

      A man suing Buffalo Wild Wings over their 'boneless wings' has also sued Tom's Mouthwash, KIND granola, and Hefty recycling bags.

        I bet he's suffered unduly at the hands of these companies' rampant ne'er do well-ing and needs justly compensated. Sigh...
