It’s Breast Not To Thigh Again
Customer: “What kind of chicken do you use for your fried chicken wings?”
Me: “I’m unsure of the brand, but I can check.”
Customer: “No, what part of the chicken is it?”
Me: “They are chicken wings.”
Customer: “I don’t think you understand my question. Is it chicken thigh or chicken breast?”
Me: “It is made with chicken wings.”
Customer: “Okay, you aren’t hearing me. Chicken is sold in different parts. What part are you selling?”
Me: “Chicken wings. The dish is fried chicken wings. Are you perhaps asking if they are boneless? They aren’t. They are actual bone-in wings.”
Customer: “I’m asking what type of chicken it is. You are making this way more difficult than it has to be.”
Me: “Here, our menu has a picture of the dish. These are the chicken wings available today.”
Customer: “How can I tell what kind of chicken it is if it is covered in brown crunchies?”
Me: “Brown… crunchies? These are certainly chicken wings. You can see the bone here.”
Customer: “All I want to know is what kind of chicken you are serving.”
Me: “Fried chicken wings!”
This went on for a long time. She didn’t even order the meal.
