Some fat ass doesn't chew his food and suddenly corporations win? You can never have perfection with organic products. What exactly do you want done to guarantee meat from a boned animal isn't left in the meat? And how much will it cost to do it, and are you willing to pay for it?
*I'm glad Ohio judges are more intelligent than most of you all.
boneless wings cost more, because the bone and gristle is removed. You're paying extra for that removal. if it's not done, then the FDA says you're not allowed to call it boneless.
They're from an entirely different part of the bird is why they don't cost the same. They also don't always cost more.
What kind of hail corporate nonsense is this? Either call it “fewer bones” or have it be without bones. I don’t expect it to be a certain price but I expect boneless chicken to be just as boneless as it is chicken.
why do you even worry about it, this doesn't interfere with your boot diet.
I hope you choke on chicken bone while reading The Jungle. I hope for your last moments to be ironic.
I doubt it. I chew my food.
Then break a tooth when you bite too hard on a "boneless chicken"
Or what, you gonna say you chew slowly too?
It's actually kinda fucking insane of you to take the side of "business should be allowed to flat out lie to you, even after it almost kills someone". Maybe talk with a psychiatrist about your lack of empathy. There's probably a diagnosis for your level of sociopathy
Seems the judges on two different levels sided with me.
Let's be clear. Republican judges.
Legality isn't morality, if your only defence to a moral charge is that it is legal then you are a wannabe slave owner born to the wrong time. Scum.
I'm just of the belief that it's stupid to expect perfection from organic food sources.
I wouldn't exactly call a bone in boneless wings asking for perfection. That's actually such a low bar that I can only imagine your standards of perfect must be absolute shit. Who hurt you?
"appeal to republican judges" has to be the worst variant of appeal to authority.
You should expect what you are paying for. They did pay for boneless, so they were willing to do so. Everything else ranges from false advertisement to negligence
I'm sure the restaurant stealing wages by making tips necessary can afford it.
That's a pretty ignorant take. "thing"less means without "thing". Boneless means without bones. Without means there isn't ANY in something.
THEIR process, which is not the customer's problem to solve, should guarantee there are no bones left in any product labeled "boneless", because that is how words and companies work...
You cost statement is irrelevant. It's capitalism, baby! You make boneless stuff as advertised and set the price at what the market will accept. If your company can't make "BONELESS" wings, then you don't get to sell them until you figure out a cost effective way of doing it. Use a different word that isn't a complete lie.
Judges can be bought and make stupid calls that only morons support...see also SCOTUS.
We are paying for it already. Now they can reduce their costs while keeping the price the same.
You can argue about if the guy should have noticed or not, that would be a factor in what he was awarded. But the lack of quality control needs to be addressed. This wasn't a small bone, it was over an inch long. I am sure they have better ways, but sonic waves like a sonogram should be able to automatically detect that bone. And it's very cheap. If your process doesn't have a way to check for bones you just can't call it boneless. Simple as that. If you have a way, and it misses a tiny tiny bone, that is one thing, but that is not what happened here. Also, the court system is messed up. If he hadn't been injured, then he wouldn't have been able to bring the case. You have to show your standing, as in your lose, to bring the case. And if it is below a certain amount you can only go to small claims court. So there could be bones in everyone of those boneless chicken wings. But until some one suffers enough financial loss, they can't sue. That is why the specific individual doesn't really matter here.
