    You could call it "Watu Wambarau Hula"
    Not many people would be offended as not many people speak Swahili.

    No but those who do would be, and they're among the most easily offended.

    Some ignorant individual proving a point?

    Pure "Knee jerk", methinks. I wonder if the successful complainants of these type of actions, swan around in some sort of sanctified aura?

    Now, I realise that they're only chicken wings and that I should get over it but, perhaps they should have been renamed " Tip of the Iceberg" wings?
    I'm failing to see the problem with boomerang wings. Which bit is offensive?
    In this context, boomerang (not an offensive noun) is used as an adjective to describe the shape of the object.
    Wings, well they are just wings!
    Perhaps we should refer to these cuts as "the Parson's arms."
    I might start a petition,
    We the undersigned, take offense at the changing of an inoffensive term to an equally inoffensive term and hereby declare to boycott your outlets until the original terminology is reinstated.
