I love wings as you know, many did you order and how many do you normally or can eat ? I can eat a lot, easily 20-30 over an hour or so with a few alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. And its even easier to eat lots in a festive sports bar or place like Hooters which makes some of the BEST boneless wings with the hottest sauce available called 911 and a blue cheese dip ....nothing better 1 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Gfted1 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Boneless...did you just say BONELESS!? Those are just grownup chicken nuggets! *throws @BruceVC down the well* I kid, I kid. Ive never ordered boneless wings so Im not sure how many I could eat. Regarding a traditional drums and flats plate, I usually eat 8-10. But the most important thing for me about wings is the skin. Its got to be crispy. 2 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you, let me add the normal wings at Hooters have bones and I order both but I agree their is something more authentic with wings with bones plus the bones add flavor when they get cooked 8-10 is the normal starter amount but thats not a main meal wings portion surly unless your wings are bigger?

Keyrock Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) Yes "boneless wings" is a misnomer. I mean, they are indeed boneless, but there's nothing wings about them. They are glorified chicken nuggets. Nothing wrong with nuggets, though. I generally prefer actual wings, bones and all. One of the main reasons is that they're not breaded... Okay, some people bread them, I sure as hell don't. Besides buffalo wings (I don't go nuclear hot, but I like a decent bit of heat to them), which are classic, I very much like garlic parmesan wings and teriyaki wings.

BruceVC Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) @Azdeus and @Pidesco I just watched an excellent episode on Swedish food and specifically food in Stockholm. Its on Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmerman and it highlighted some delicious and at times unusual Swedish food but I would definitely try it all https://www.travelchannel.com/shows/bizarre-foods/episodes/stockholm Unusual food like Reindeer testicles that look great when they served because they looked like thick slices of salami and they can be deep-fried Edited October 17, 2021 by BruceVC "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Austrian\German food is overall better than the Nordic countries because of the vast range from authentic German fine dining like rabbit to pigeon to incredible pork dishes to normal delicious food like sausages, eisbein and normal meat dishes. Do you know Germany " boasts 10 three-Michelin-star restaurants, as many as Italy and more than the UK and Scandinavia combined " , taken from the article below. But Austrian cuisine is also very advanced and popular, I have eaten more Austrian food than German because of our family skiing holidays https://www.elitetraveler.com/features/best-restaurants-in-germany But the Nordic countries are making huge progress and they have some unique food I have never eaten like cloud berries, fudge cheese and reindeer and other game specific to the region Edited October 17, 2021 by BruceVC "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

I think that's what the Korean fried chicken places do too, because all of their chicken is extremely crunchy.

Keyrock Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Almost everyone hates candy corns on Halloween. Almost everyone hates fruit cake on X-Mas. I've heard myths that there is such a thing as "good fruit cake". I have yet to witness this "good fruit cake", much less taste it. My question is, what is the worse holiday tradition: candy corns or fruit cake?

Green bean casserole is where it's at on Thanksgiving. The gravy is just a patch, and it doesn't really fix the problem so you still get bites of dry and flavorless meat. Turkey can be good if cooked right (like frying or smoking), but you'd have better chances of winning the lottery than getting a good roasted turkey.
