About Buffalo wings

Buffalo wings are a popular American appetizer consisting of chicken wing sections that are deep-fried until crispy, then coated in a tangy, spicy sauce typically made from hot sauce, butter, and seasonings. Originating in Buffalo, New York, these flavorful wings are a staple of comfort food and sports-viewing snacks. While high in protein due to the chicken, they are often calorie-dense due to frying and the butter-based sauce. Accompaniments like celery sticks and blue cheese or ranch dressing offer a refreshing contrast but can add extra fat and calories. Baked or air-fried wings are a lighter alternative to traditional preparation, and opting for lower-sodium sauces can enhance their nutritional profile. While Buffalo wings provide energy and are rich in essential nutrients like selenium, moderation is key to balancing their indulgent nature with health-conscious habits.
