My favorite place, Blackbird Pizzeria, was 10th. Considering they just started doing wings, after I moved, of course, this is pretty impressive.

They all look delicious!

Don't they? I want to do a road trip to each place and sample them all, and then write a review, lol.

You can take over for Kristin Lajeunesse if she ever quits her job.http://wtfveganfood.com/

Veggie Grill is amazing, everything on their menu tastes great. I have never been disappointed. That said, the wings are good, but not the best item on the menu. I'd go for the wing salad myself.

Definitely a must-visit if you're near one. Fifty years from now, everyone will be eating this way.

I would imagine that vegan wings ( chick'n wings ?) is fake meat. They have a big choice in the US.

Perhaps I've lived a sheltered life! I didn't even know that people ate chicken wings.... erm... I thought they were just made of bones & feathers.
Shows how much I know!

Lol, Trinity. In my area, they became quite popular as pub food in the 80s. Mostly doused in either buffalo hot sauce or barbecue sauce.

Right, aha!
So that's another thing I've never heard of - is buffalo hot sauce made of buffalo?

Which reminds me. I was on Kauai a while back with my son, getting him a 'vegan hot dog'. He asked for chili with it (thinking that chili actually meant 'chili peppers') and we were really surprised when he got a big splodge of chili con carne with meat poured right over his vegan hotdog. Thankfully we asked what the bits were before eating them and learned quickly.

 

[PTree15]

Oh yes, the chili dog. Glad you didn't have to eat it!
RE: the buffalo sauce...I believe it's named for Buffalo, N.Y., where the buffalo wing supposedly originated. The sauce is generally made with a base of vinegar, a cayenne pepper sauce and butter. My vegan version includes vegan worcestershire sauce and garlic powder.

All these sauces named after places. How fascinating. I've been a vegan for so long, that there are so many things that I've never eaten before.
Perhaps we should invent some new ones I made a couple of baked dishes and called one 'benevolent bake' and the other 'conscious cottage pie'...

I love the names of your dishes, Trinity.
