Mighty Wings

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Mighty Wings are a type of chicken wings that were introduced by the international fast food chain, McDonald's. They were first launched in 1990 as part of the company's menu expansion strategy. The wings are known for their spicy and crispy coating, which is a result of being breaded and then deep-fried.

History[edit | edit source]

McDonald's first introduced Mighty Wings in 1990. The product was initially tested in a few markets before being rolled out nationwide. However, due to various factors including price and competition, the wings were discontinued in 2003. They were reintroduced in 2013 for a limited time, but were again discontinued due to poor sales.

Preparation and Serving[edit | edit source]

Mighty Wings are prepared by first being breaded with a spicy coating. They are then deep-fried until crispy. The wings are typically served with a side of McDonald's' signature sauces such as BBQ, Sweet 'n Sour sauce, or Hot Mustard sauce.

Reception[edit | edit source]

The reception to Mighty Wings has been mixed. While some customers appreciated the addition of a spicy, non-burger option to the McDonald's menu, others felt that the wings were too expensive and not in line with the fast food chain's traditional offerings. The reintroduction of the wings in 2013 was met with similar feedback.
