If I order boneless wings, I know that they're not made from the wing of a chicken, but they goddamn better be boneless, and saying that "boneless wings is not a guarantee that they are in fact boneless" goes against every linguistic and culinary expectation about that item. I agree with the dissent.

Every chicken place in their county should serve bone-in boneless chicken just because they can now.

How about the Japan method of cramming a bone in the end of a hotdog?

Wait until you hear about these new "Oops all Bone" wings.

What part of the chicken are they made from?? I've made wings at home and they were clearly wings, although mine weren't boneless

Boneless wings are typically breast meat, like tenders and nuggets, cut into shapes that resemble wings.

So they really are just chicken nuggets for adults then...
Seriously, what the fuck are you guys doing over there if "boneless wings" are neither boneless nor wings?!

To be fair, calling them "wings" was to my knowledge more about linking them to how chicken wings as a dish were prepared and presented than a statement on where the meat came from on the bird.

I don't know much about this case in particular but it fits into a long pattern of activist conservative judges basically legislating from the bench to protect business interests. So it's unsurprising that one of them would basically say "no one actually believes the wing part, so there's no reason for them to believe the boneless part either, and therefore there's no liability if there are bones in the product."

You say "over there" but this is an Ohio ruling. That'd be like judging all of Europe for Belarusian rulings.
