With the Super Bowl just around the corner, the Chicken Wing shortage has caused widespread panic. One company has come forward to take responsibility for the possible shortage of chicken wings. Since Kraft is one of our clients, we have the inside scoop on the situation. As “Channel 7 Action News” uncovered this Chicken Wing Crisis, farmers have had to invest in state of the art security systems to protect from chicken theft, duck wing demand has increased, and chicken wings are being sold on popular auction sites.

Here is the official apology that Kraft has released:

The Kraft Ranch Salad Dressing team has issued an official apology in response to the unprecedented nationwide shortage of buffalo wings.

David Ervin, Category Director for Kraft Salad Dressing says, “Although it is not scheduled to hit shelves until late February, it has come to our attention that samples of our highly anticipated best tasting Ranch ever have been leaked to the general public. We know that when the new Kraft Ranch is combined with wings, will-power disappears. Authorities believe this loss of self-control may have contributed to the wing shortage gripping America. Essentially, this might be our fault.”

Mr. Ervin added, “We understand with the biggest sporting events of the year approaching, this is a time when wings are needed most. Do you think I want to watch sports without wings? Come on. To stop the use of bootleg dressing, we’ve tightened up security and are ramping up production in order to get our new best tasting Ranch ever to stores as quickly as possible.”

There’s no need to search, as I have the video right here. “Watching football without chicken wings, is like watching…baseball without chicken wings.” Truer words were never spoken!
