Consumers cannot expect boneless chicken wings to actually be free of bones, a divided Ohio Supreme Court ruled Thursday, rejecting claims by a restaurant patron who suffered serious medical complications from getting a bone stuck in his throat.
Michael Berkheimer was dining with his wife and friends at a wing joint in Hamilton, Ohio, and had ordered the usual — boneless wings with parmesan garlic sauce — when he felt a bite-size piece of meat go down the wrong way. Three days later, feverish and unable to keep food down, Berkeimer went to the emergency room, where a doctor discovered a long, thin bone that had torn his esophagus and caused an infection.
…
In a 4-3 ruling, the Supreme Court said Thursday that “boneless wings” refers to a cooking style, and that Berkheimer should’ve been on guard against bones since it’s common knowledge that chickens have bones. The high court sided with lower courts that had dismissed Berkheimer’s suit.
Buffalo wings aren’t made from real Buffalo, either. Hell, most Buffalo can’t even fly.
Don’t get me started on Rocky Mountain Oysters
Where’s the shell? Idiots evolved it away or something?
I hope you’re joking. Otherwise, you’re why boneless chicken wings can still have bones. 💀
Like the Hamburger, it has nothing to do with what’s in the food, but rather where they came from originally.
Oh yes, the Boneless region of France
If they don’t come from the Boneless region, they’re just sparkling nuggets.
They literally implied that some buffalo can fly.
