Chicken wings advertised as 'boneless' can have bones, Ohio Supreme Court decides (apnews.com)

Consumers cannot expect boneless chicken wings to actually be free of bones, a divided Ohio Supreme Court ruled Thursday, rejecting claims by a restaurant patron who suffered serious medical complications from getting a bone stuck in his throat.

Michael Berkheimer was dining with his wife and friends at a wing joint in Hamilton, Ohio, and had ordered the usual — boneless wings with parmesan garlic sauce — when he felt a bite-size piece of meat go down the wrong way. Three days later, feverish and unable to keep food down, Berkeimer went to the emergency room, where a doctor discovered a long, thin bone that had torn his esophagus and caused an infection.

…

In a 4-3 ruling, the Supreme Court said Thursday that “boneless wings” refers to a cooking style, and that Berkheimer should’ve been on guard against bones since it’s common knowledge that chickens have bones. The high court sided with lower courts that had dismissed Berkheimer’s suit.

On a bit of a tangent, I'm Finnish and recently (as in the past year or two) there's been Coke and Pepsi which literally say "caffeine-free" on the side. Not "decaffeinated", but "caffeine-free".

I think there's been some sort of innovation in decaffenation or someone's come up with a flavour/essence which replaces the ingredient with caffeine in it.

Decaf definitely has caffeine, as I've completely without caffeine at several points for several months (even avoiding chocolate mostly) and a "decaffeinated" beverage still made me clearly stimulated. A clear caffeine high.

NileRed has a nice video on him trying to decaf redbull and while he does succeed in extracting caffeine from it, he thinks it's not even half he gets out. Ofc industrial systems are more effective, but it shows how difficult the process is to perfect. https://youtu.be/oY8tz1paj6o

We've had caffeine-free Coke for years in the US. The difference is that the caffeine in Coke is added during manufacturing, so it's easy to just leave out. Whereas the caffeine in coffee is naturally occurring, so needs to be removed to make it decaf, and just like in the NileRed video, it's impossible to remove all of the caffeine.

You're not kidding. I googled it and it's been a thing since the mid 80's, lol. No idea why they only decided to sell some here in honestly the past year or two.

Well, based on the principles of homeopathy, you made the coffee more powerful by diluting the amount of caffeine.

Lol
