    If I order boneless wings, I know that they’re not made from the wing of a chicken, but they goddamn better be boneless, and saying that “boneless wings is not a guarantee that they are in fact boneless” goes against every linguistic and culinary expectation about that item. I agree with the dissent.

      What part of the chicken are they made from?? I’ve made wings at home and they were clearly wings, although mine weren’t boneless

          So they really are just chicken nuggets for adults then…
          Seriously, what the fuck are you guys doing over there if “boneless wings” are neither boneless nor wings?!

            To be fair, calling them “wings” was to my knowledge more about linking them to how chicken wings as a dish were prepared and presented than a statement on where the meat came from on the bird.

            I don’t know much about this case in particular but it fits into a long pattern of activist conservative judges basically legislating from the bench to protect business interests. So it’s unsurprising that one of them would basically say “no one actually believes the wing part, so there’s no reason for them to believe the boneless part either, and therefore there’s no liability if there are bones in the product.”

            You say “over there” but this is an Ohio ruling. That’d be like judging all of Europe for Belarusian rulings.

    So when I read boneless wings I have to assume not only is it boneless-style, wing-style mystery chicken but also it’s not necessarily safe to eat.

    I thought we had the PFDA and USDA to assure that our boneless wings had no bones in them and were wings.

    I still want buffalo and wings in my buffalo wings.
