    Super Bowl Fans Cry 'Fowl' Over Chicken Wing Shortage

    Oh No! No wings for Super Bowl.
    http://finance.yahoo.com/news/super-...153110338.html
    The wholesale price of wings will be the most expensive ever during Super Bowl XLVII as demand rises and the supply shrinks. Wings are also currently the highest-priced part of the chicken — the wholesale price for wings is currently about $2.11 a pound in the Northeast, the highest on record at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, up 22 cents or 12 percent from a year earlier.

    Funny cause wings used to be thrown away as trash. Just used just to make chicken stock, if anything, and now people are paying $2/lb for them. Hooters is to blame.

    How many wings you think come in a lb.? $2 lb doesn't seem that bad.
