hello everyone this is running on empty food review well hello ladies gentlemen and everyone
watching a happy weekend to all of you this is running on empty food review and i am your
host the report of the week well here we are we are here we have we have reconvened once again
going with a gray a gray suit got a shortwave radio behind uh behind right there
and uh we're trying out some buffalo wild wings yeah buffalo wild wings it's one of those
establishments i guess we're it's kind of funny i say this in every single video and i know that
but we're getting into it um buffalo wild wings is one of the establishments that i actually used to
frequent uh more often a few years ago now yeah i don't go as much not that i have anything against
buffalo wild wings it's just i don't know i just haven't had the opportunity to um to try out their
fare as often as i used to i suppose um buffalo wild wings so i used to go there all the time
back in 2015 2016 and then i kind of lost track of them this is not necessarily the newest release
in that i always try to say that there's different types of releases you know it's like
you have the brand new stuff that was released you know like last week you have the releases
that came out like you know like a month or two ago which is what this one is and then you have
the things that are just always on the menu uh these wings were originally released back in early
september i think of 2020. a lot of people were talking about them back then it was like that was
that was the thing that was the big deal everyone was was raving about them for better or for worse
and then it just kind of stopped now to me that's either a really good thing or a
really bad thing you might be saying well how is that good or bad to me if everything just stops
either these wings are so good that everyone's socks i would figure in the literal sense
are blown off and that's it or they're so bad that everyone who tried them
let's just say isn't around anymore to talk about them so we're going to try these out
these are the new again fairly new um pizza wings from buffalo wild wings all right here's what they
say imagine pizza everyone loves it everyone's favorite food uh everyone has to have more of
it and you have wings everyone likes that too everyone likes uh dem chicken wings as they say
and i mean i like wings i'm a wing fan you know i i like them i usually go boneless but
you know bone-in is fine too i like pizza so why not combine them that's what buffalo wild
wings figured and that's exactly what they're doing so these wings they call them the pizza
wings they come with a garlic parmesan sauce and then they are dusted with tomato powder and basil
they say hey we've got the wings and it's like an authentic pizza eating experience
uh you know so it's just it's just the best of both worlds it's like you're eating pizza
and you're eating wings and i'm going to try them and we're going to see how good they are
a little on the pricier end they got six traditional wings for the price of ten dollars

i can't really air that but i was just monitoring one of my own broadcasts but it's heard all across
north america and really helps support that help support the channel and that's just a lot of fun
overall but if you're interested it's just there for you now here are the wings the blessed wings
again we got a six piece of them there they are bone-in pizza wings if i had to look at them i
wouldn't necessarily say that these are you know it doesn't look like pizza unless you know i've
been just eating the wrong kind of pizza my entire life and that is a a genuine possibility all right
there's a um close-up view of one of the wings you can definitely see though you know it's
pretty good size definitely got a crisp to it and you can see there is that sauce on it
and also the little uh different seasonings as well so we're gonna see how this is um this is
supposed to again be like pizza but in wing form and uh we'll see how this turns out so i think
one of two things is going to happen either a i'm going to be blown away and i'm going to be
in like a catatonic state for the next 15 minutes because these are just going to be that good or b
i'm just going to kill over after the first couple bites either way we're going to be in for a fun
time so enjoy the show i'm going to be trying out the pizza wings from buffalo wild wings going in
hmm
i forgot to do this so we'll we'll figure this out right there they are and there i am behind
them oh i'm going to point i'm going to point this time around because i'm just
that's how i am you know something like that but either way i mean you could really see them
um they're crispy they're well seasoned you know pretty meaty as well i gotta say uh one
interesting point though if i tried these without the knowledge that these are you know the famous
pizza wings uh would i necessarily eat these and say wow this is just like pizza no i wouldn't
you know
i can i mean number one just from a wing standpoint are there good quality wings obviously
you can see i mean they're decent size they're meaty the the chicken is flavorful it's juicy
um good crisp to it as well but it doesn't you know break my teeth or anything so just
from a wing standpoint these are pretty good i can't complain there these aren't like um
you know pigeon wings or something these are these are decent
but
all right here's what i have to say about them i think they taste good for what they are but
they don't taste they don't taste like what they're supposed to you know be as advertised
perhaps that's what i'm trying to say in that they're good i would just say these are like
maybe wings with a little bit of like i can't even taste the parmesan that much a tiny bit of garlic
but not even that much when i've had plenty of garlic parmesan wings in the past and when i
try those they're good i mean i could really i could taste the garlic it's potent i mean
you can smell it in this case i taste a little bit of garlic i'd probably say like oh these are um
kind of salty uh garlic wings or something uh pizza is not what comes to mind in this case
now mate that's just my that's my two cents i can see the powder that they used for the um
the tomato the tomato powder as they call it i see that you could bear witness to it um you can
kind of see the powder sprinkled around there especially working in the corners oh shoot well
we'll deal with that later yeah i mean i can see that i know it's there i know i know that
these are the right wings i cannot taste the tomato powder at all i can barely taste a little
bit of the basil um i can taste the garlic and i can taste a tiny bit of that parmesan
but honestly i would just like oh these are um very mild uh garlic wings pizza does not come
to mind when i try these out i know that they try to market them it's a pizza but when you
try it out it's like ah so right i mean it's some garlic tastes pretty good but that's it
that's all that there is to it so in the end these are mild wings again the meat is flavorful
but from a sauce standpoint they don't taste like pizza
tiny little bit of garlic i can't taste the tomato i can taste a tiny bit of basil they're
not bad they're pleasant again mild on the milder side no spice whatsoever just flavor wise mild
but not pizza they don't really taste like like a slice of pizza at all they tried they put they put
forth a valiant effort they have a good product but i just wouldn't say that this is i think what
you would expect it to be uh when you think about pizza wings you know this isn't for better or for
worse i mean this we might have saved the world by the by the fact that these weren't actually
pizza wings because who knows what that would have would have caused if they really were i don't know
but uh all things considered again they're pricey um six of these was ten bucks and they don't taste
like what they're supposed to taste like they're still okay but as a result i'm going to give these
a 5.7 out of 10 because again you're getting these for a specific reason you're getting these
not for garlic wings you're getting these because you want them to taste like pizza which they don't
so that's why they have the rating that they do still a decent product just it is not as
advertised so that is why they have the rating that they have and that's all that we have for you
yeah we tried out the pizza wings from buffalo wild wings again just for the fun of it but i
wish that they were a little more flavorful and a little uh more on point that's all that i have
for you ladies and gentlemen i'm your host the report of the week that's all take care
