The Ohio Supreme Court has ruled that consumers cannot expect boneless chicken wings to be completely free of bones, following a lawsuit from Michael Berkheimer who suffered serious injuries from a bone lodged in his throat after dining at Wings on Brookwood. Berkheimer claimed the restaurant failed to inform him that their 'boneless wings' could contain bones, leading to a lawsuit against the restaurant, the supplier, and the chicken farm. In a narrow 4-3 decision, the court determined that 'boneless wings' is a cooking term and that customers should understand that chicken inherently has bones. Justice Joseph T. Deters argued that diners would not assume that the term 'boneless' guarantees the absence of bones, comparing it to other misleading food terms. Dissenting justices contended that the majority's reasoning was nonsensical and that a jury should evaluate potential negligence. Berkheimer's case highlights the complexities and expectations in food labeling and consumer safety.
