Yeah, the growth in popularity of chicken wings is a weird development. Though it goes back more than a few years. It started in the 1960s and grew in popularity in the 1970s and 80s.
I really don't get the appeal of wings. I suspect it's just a marketing thing. They took the least desirable part of the chicken and turned them into the most profitable.
This is exactly how I feel. I've never gotten the appeal of chicken wings and avoid them in any form they come in. My dogs get them and everyone's happy.
As for memories, I remember when weathermen almost always got it wrong on forecasts. Now they're pretty darn accurate up to a week ahead.
I'm so old, I remember being in elementary school and mom would send me to the corner grocery store with a couple dollars and I'd come back with 5 potatoes, a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk, a hunk of cheese, and a dozen eggs.
Location: The Circle City. Sometimes NE of Bagdad.

When my mom would give me money and asked me to go buy ice cream for all 4 of us, mom, dad, my brother and I. It was not close the ice cream store (a tiny tiny one) so I had to walk fast/run sometimes and come back with 4 vanilla ice cream covered in chocolate.
^Yeah! You reminded me that my mom had a huge freezer in our utility room full of meat. The butcher would wrap it in white paper and tape it up with white tape.
Maybe it should be the "a-petro-saurus" for Sinclair.
