Chicken Wing Shortage Is Still Happening in America
... Take out at restaurants have really gone up during the pandemic, making chicken wings one of the most popular choice to get according to the National Chicken Council. Therefore, the price has been shooting up.

 

In February 2020, the price for a pound of chicken wings for the restaurants cost from suppliers was about $1.81, nationally and now places in Western New York are reported spending almost THREE DOLLARS A pound. ...

 

National chicken wing shortage continues to hurt restaurants

... “Say we order 50 cases of wings to get us through the weekend. We might only get 30 of them delivered. So we’re getting about two-thirds of what we typically order. There are some days our food reps will call us and say we might not be able to get you anything,” manager Jeff Feather.

 

The manager told News 4 the prices of chicken wings, produce, and other restaurant essentials have skyrocketed by almost 200%.

 

Also, Duffs buys their chicken wings in cases that are around 40 pounds. Right now, they cost more than $3 a pound. ...

This is a very real thing.

 

My sister bartends at Buffalo Wild Wings two nights a week for some extra cash.

 

They changed their policy so that employees are no longer allowed to order wings for themselves.

Nothing says "find other employment" more than someone treating you like less than the customer.

 

I really and truly hate that.
