      Same way if you call something a “wing” it has to be a wing? (I think this should be a thing but since that’s not true the boneless part isn’t)

      Edit: I said that badly, let me rephrase (and this isn’t my opinion I’m just trying to decode the logic): Because “Boneless Wing” already isnt technically true to what the product is (it’s not a wing), then the other part doesn’t have to be technically true (it’s not always bonless).

      Now if someone sold, a boneless steak with a bone, then under this logic it would not be allowed.

    Well boneless wings has always been a bold faced lie anyway since they don’t make them with wing meat.

    I remember arguing on the phone with a person taking my order years ago the first time they offered me “white meat boneless wings” and I tried to point out that wings are dark meat not white meat so what they were selling wasn’t really wings. They got pissed.

      I’ve never seen dark wing meat. Drumsticks sometimes have darkish parts but it’s no comparison to the color of actual dark meat

    Maybe an actual wing got mixed up with the ‘boneless’ ones? I can’t fathom how a (5 CM!!) piece of bone could get in the meat and be unnoticed by both the cook and the diner (who presumably chewed it before failing to swallow?)

    Edit: A diner was injured when a chicken bone became lodged in his esophagus. He sued for damages.

    My original post: I can’t understand how this is a legal dispute. If their boneless wings have bones then don’t order them again.

    Second edit: I bet they’re not even wings! /s
