Buffalo Wing-olgy
Despite what you may think, Buffalo wings do not come from buffalos. In fact they come from chickens. I was completely mortified when I discovered this fact. It is truly distressing to find that the government is lying to us about meat! For these are chicken wings not buffalo wings! It is just wrong.
Here is one of the many lies the government is trying to feed us about Buffalo wings:
The Disputed History of Buffalo Wings
Anchor Bar claims to have created "Buffalo Wings". There are four legends that circulate about the birth of buffalo wings.
The one most people believe is the first version of the legend. Teressa and Frank Bellisimo owned the Anchor Bar and she invented Buffalo chicken wings in 1964. Her son Dominic and his friends came into the bar looking for a quick late night snack. "Mother Teressa" was preparing to make chicken stock with some wings. She stuck them under the broiler (they later started deep frying them) and dipped the wings in a hot sauce she made with a commercially available base (Frank's Red Hot). She served them with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing (the house dressing). From that moment, Buffalo wings just took off. On July 29, 1977, Chicken Wing Day was proclaimed in Buffalo in Frank's memory.
Where did Buffalo wings come from? According to one popularly accepted historical account, they were created on October 30, 1964, at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York. Making a late night snack for her son and his friends, owner Teressa Bellissimo took some of the leftover chicken wings from the kitchen, fried them up, and coated them with a spicy sauce. A side of celery and bleu cheese dressing to ease the heat, and Buffalo wings were born.
