I’m not normally a chicken wing eater, but I hear about others liking them. Thought I’d get some at the store the other day, but they were $3.99 a pound while drumsticks were only $1.99 a pound.

For you chicken wing enthusiasts - why would chicken wings be worth the $2 more a pound? What are you doing with them? Talk me out of the drumsticks I bought instead.

    Skin to meat ratio. Drum sticks fill you up faster, I eat wings for the spices and sauces not the meat. You can eat 12 delicious wings for every 6 delicious drumsticks. If you just want to get full faster go for drumsticks. If you want to savour the action of eating, go for wings.

      And if you are dirt poor … you use the wing as a dipping stick to lap up as much of the sauce as possible by double/triple/quadruple dipping before consuming the chicken wing meat.
