Chicken Wing Shortage Predicted

Oh dear god no! Thanks to the Pilgrim’s Pride bankruptcy, there could be a chicken wing shortage for the Superbowl.

The combination has made prices soar, suppliers say.

“Forty pounds (of wings) would be like $85,” Sam Musolino, owner of Sammy’s Pizzeria in nearby Niagara Falls, N.Y., tells WIVB-TV, Buffalo.

He used to pay only half that amount, he says.

Wing Stop says it’s the busiest day of the year for them. I planned to have wings for my Superbowl party but I will get them from Wing Basket. I better get my order in tomorrow!
