As a born Buffalonian and avid Buffalo wing eater you are taught from time you can breathe that it is not called chicken wings it's called Buffalo wings. Why you might ask well let me tell you. Buffalo wings were created in a small restaurant called the Anchor bar (still open) when the ran out of chicken and decided to serve the leftovers (wings). So I ask you please don't call them chicken wings call them Buffalo wings we don't ask for much I mean come on look at our track record the last time a president came to our city he was shot, we blew the Superbowl 4 times in a row, and we mooch on the fame of Niagara falls and are still working on getting that freaking Bass Pro down town. So please for Bruce Almighty call them Buffalo wings not chicken wings.
OR just don't eat chicken wings. Some parts of the animal are meant to be thrown away. We're not French.
I've always called them buffalo wings. I also like them very hot. Thanks for the history lesson, though.
Does Buffalo seriously try and claim ownership on the concept of eating chicken wings? I could understand wanting recognition if they'd created a special dish involving chicken wings, but this is silly. Can I insist that pork sausages should be called Sledge sausages 'cos I once ran out of fish so ate pork sausages instead?
