No Chicken Wings? No Problem.

From mild to spicy, chicken wings are almost synonymous with the big game. They’re the perfect sport-watching food – easily consumed in one bite, portable with one hand (freeing the other up for a cold beverage), and they’re always a crowd favourite. 

Every year, wing availability is a factor close to the big game, but let’s imagine the worst-case scenario: The country has run out of chicken wings.
