He too admitted seeing these false advertisements. He could not understand why the government condoned such a thing. He did say that he had seen deformed chickens with no bones in their wings and they usually keep them in a ventilated room as they could not flutter. But their quantity is not enough to feed a nation.
Have any of you wondered about this conundrum?:cus:

“ Boneless Wings Come From A Different Cut of Chicken
“For starters, boneless chicken wings and chicken nuggets are made of different cuts of chicken. Despite being called “boneless wings,” they are made from tender, delicious chicken breast that has been cut into bite-sized pieces. Breast meat is commonly used for making boneless wings because it is one of the leanest and most tender parts of the chicken. On the other hand, chicken nuggets are made from various parts of the chicken, such as the skin and dark meat pieces. The hodgepodge of different chicken cutlets that nuggets are made from often results in an inconsistent flavor compared to fresh boneless wings.
“How Boneless Wings Are Made Makes All The Difference
“Another key difference between boneless wings and chicken nuggets is how they are prepared before cooking. Boneless wings are cut from chicken breast into small pieces, which are then coated in a batter mixture before being dunked in a deep fryer to give them their irresistibly crunchy exterior. Nuggets are often prepared in a less savory manner: mechanically-separated chicken is compacted into the shape of a nugget, battered, breaded, then fried. Because of this process, chicken nuggets can never be as fresh as boneless wings.”
I strongly disagree with the statement that breast meat is the most tender part of a roasted chicken.
