Quick — What’s the PERFECT party food?
Okay, first of all, it should be small enough to carry while blending, tasty hot or at room temperature, packed with flavor, and have hundreds of delicious recipes that are inexpensive and easy to prepare.
In our minds, there is only one food that fits perfectly:

They are easy to cook and easy to travel with. It can be cooked and flavored in hundreds of different ways. Small enough to grab a handful and easy to eat. Good hot or cold. And, best of all, absolutely delicious.
Those are just a few of the many reasons I enjoy wings and think they are the perfect party food.
