That is a point of view that simply would never have occurred to me.
I figured all the wings fans were people looking for something to carry
the sauce on, who hadn't discovered spoons. I like the meaty pieces.

I wonder what happens to all the skin from all the packages of skinless
chicken that gets sold (actually, I probably don't want to know.) Maybe
somebody could fry it and sell "Chicken Chicarones" for sauce dipping.

My main complaint with wings is the high ratio of bones to edible bits.
