Have an intense peanut butter like taste. Fried in very hot oil gets rid of the wings and the rest is best served on bread or toast...mmm.

I would like to make it clear that I, personally, do NOT have wings.
All this is very troubling.

Excellent work Amy. Do keep a look out for hungry marauding worms though. They could tunnel under your barricades...

I'd love some crisps
