Lincoln Man Pleads to City Council: Stop the Use of the Term “Boneless Chicken Wings”
KRVN ^ | September 2, 2020 | Bryce Doeschot

A Lincoln man spoke passionately at a recent City Council meeting about the improper use of a term used in restaurants and bars across the world.

The term: Boneless Chicken Wings.

Lincoln resident Ander Christensen spoke during the public comment period of the meeting, encouraging society to rebrand the popular food item.

“Lincoln has the opportunity to be a social leader in this county,” said Christensen. “We have been casually ignoring a problem that has gotten so out of control that our children are casually throwing around names and words without even understanding their true meaning.”

The man proposed that Lincoln remove the term boneless chicken wings “from our menus and from our hearts.”

He went on to list the reasons why and offered a list of alternative words to describe the chicken product. Alternative names included buffalo-style chicken tenders and saucy nugs.

“We’ve been living a lie for far too long, and we know it because we feel it in our bones,” said Christensen.

Somebody in the audience laughed, he said “Excuse me!”
One person slowly clapped when it was over.
Most probably thought this guy was some kind of comedian, filming this for his YouTube channel.
“We have been living a lie!!”

I think in Belgium they use Septante, but not France.

*boneless chicken wings*

Is this a synonym for a bundle of sticks?

—Call them “deboned chicken wings”, to avoid confusion—

Actually, they are NOT chicken wings at all.
Most likely chunks of otherwise unusable meat.

I don’t eat out much; I had no idea. That’s just nasty.

At my barbecue, chicken wings come from the wings of chickens.

“And I think he’s got a point. For years I thought that cans of “Starkist Tuna” were actually kissed by Hollywood stars.”

Hollyweirdian Jessica Simpson couldn’t understand why her cans had fish in them when they were CLEARLY labeled Chicken Of The Sea!
She also fixed her boyfriend a cheeseburger. Only problem was she forgot to take the slice of cheese out of it’s individual wrapper.
Brains ain’t her strong suit.

“That’s just nasty.”

Nothing like McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets of the past — spongy, grease-filled, ground-up mystery meat, breaded & fried. Mmm mmm mmm!

Only in a developed and advanced(?) country with plenty of food does this issue come up.

Well, Congress has deemed the burning issue of the day is passing marijuana legislation. Not the budget. Not stimulus checks. Not the Chinese virus. Nope, got to legalize marijuana.

So, can we now take off these fershluginer masks?

I actually enjoy Mcnuggets from time to time, a kind of preformed chicken baloney. I know what it is but it doesn’t bother me. I always get sweet & sour and hot mustard sauce. Also, they heat up well in the toaster oven in case you want a snack for later. Guilty pleasures.
