Buffalo Wild Wings

Why Buffalo Wild Wings Is Getting Sued

"A national sports-bar chain at the center of a recent class-action lawsuit alleging that its “boneless wings” are actually breaded all-white chicken breast nuggets rather than true chicken wings; the company itself describes them as “JUICY ALL-WHITE CHICKEN / LIGHTLY BREADED / HANDSPUN IN CHOICE OF SAUCE OR DRY SEASONING.” The chain is also credited with inventing the boneless buffalo wing, a tidier alternative that many Americans now prefer, and its popularity has been amplified by economics—boneless pieces are significantly cheaper to produce, a gap highlighted during the 2021 wing shortage—prompting ongoing debate about naming, consumer expectations, and culinary authenticity." - Chris Crowley
