Chicago man sues Buffalo Wild Wings because his wings contained “breast meat”

Q101 believes in putting Chicago’s best foot forward, but as a city, we’re going to have to take an “L” on this one.

A Chicago man has filed a federal lawsuit claiming that the practice is fraud and companies like Buffalo Wild Wings are duping customers by selling chicken wings that aren’t in fact wings. We’re not sure if he wanted feathers to come with his order or not. What we do know is that he went onto say, “Unbeknownst to plaintiff and other consumers, the products are not wings at all, but instead, slices of chicken breast meat deep-fried like wings,” the lawsuit reads. “Indeed, the products are more akin, in composition, to a chicken nugget rather than a chicken wing.”

Buffalo Wild Wings has not released an official statement, but the company did clap back at the lawsuit on Twitter.

Unfortunately, this does add fuel to the fire for the people who say that boneless wings are “just chicken nuggets”.
