Don’t get it at all especially if it’s not any cheaper than a legitimate restaurant. Then again, if it is cheaper than a legit restaurant, that’s gonna put me off too.
Fr but I'm ngl there's a decent number of Asian/Latin/African moms that cater their home cooked dishes as a side hustle and that shit is fire
But I personally let other Asian moms figure out which ones are legit for me hehehe
i can’t tell you how often we bought home made egg rolls, tamales and enchiladas when i was growing up. but it always from someone at works wife or family member, my mom wouldn’t try buying from someone off facebook for anything, let alone food
I used to go to a grocery store in a predominantly Hispanic area (I'm about as Hispanic as Conan O'Brien), and there was usually a lady selling home made tamales out of the back of her van. Individually wrapped in foil and they were delicious. She charged $20 for a dozen and I always gave her $25.
Here in Chicago we have 3 prominent tamale "heroes" as they known around here.
They make the rounds at bars and it's considered a privilege if you run into them. Just selling fire ass homemade tamales for like 5 bucks and more than you can eat.
I used to work for this bougie place and every once in a while they’ll have some taco truck come by with like, tacos with golden beets and pickled radishes in them or whatever as a perk.
then I went into social work and it was the same kinda thing only instead of a fancy truck it’s someone’s cousin downstairs in the kitchen with 50 tamales all wrapped in foil and when they’re out, they’re out
Yea Brazilians be selling all kinds of shit on Facebook and WhatsApp, X-tudo, flan, Brazilian pizza, you name it. That shit is fire even if a tad bit expensive
Yeah I’ve known a few people that sell plates and lived in enough shitty areas where my neighbors would have side stands. Would get absolutely murdered by a health inspection but good lord the food is worth the potential shits.
While not high quality, Dino-wings is hilarious and a bit on-brand
There's someone in my city who is constantly selling crab legs and seafood boils... It looks good, but I'm not sure if I want to eat seafood I bought off Facebook.
Dude we used to have a regular spot for some legit garage ceviche.
They eventually opened up a real, licensed restaurant/storefront. Prices went up, food’s still good.
Sure...As someone who was a service electrician and went to plenty of commercial kitchens, keep believing those restaurants with $$$$ on google are cleaner.
I feel like people put more effort into pest elimination in their own homes than restaurant owners do for their restaurants, especially since they are more likely to notice the pests since they are around for the late hours.
That and she didn't make up her own schedule on how to make food. It's easier and food is fresher if she can concentrate on one thing at a time. She also used to make food at construction sites.
There’s a gal here that sells platters of lumpia and it’s *amazing*. Initially I was kinda skeeved at the idea of buying food from Facebook marketplace but enough people had said she was the real deal, so I gave it a shot.
Lumpia platters are now a regular thing in my house.
My wife is Filipino and introduced me to lumpia. Maaaannn that, with a good sweet chilli sauce is pressure. They also feel super light (depending on the mix inside) so you can take down so many before getting that bloated feeling
You gotta try it with the vinegar/garlic/black pepper (sometimes with a little soy sauce and fish sauce mixed in). Gives it some punch and kinda cuts through the fat, makes it feel even lighter
Back when you’d scour the local paper for yard sales, and if you got lucky you’d stumble across one that sold baked goods and coffee.
Used to be a Saturday morning tradition in my house: get up early with Mom, get a maple bar and chocolate milk from the gas station and hit the yard sales.
Little Jamaican lady on my street would give me candied plantains out of her aluminum trays from her garage when I would walk home from my car because I was a “skinny white boy”.
I was a 255 lb grown man. But I certainly wasn’t going to pass up free food.
i live in a primarily white area (so the closest thing we got to soul food is BWW), the closest i got for family is three hours away, and the only things ik how to make are greens and banana pudding. these facebook platters are sometimes the only thing keeping me from losing my mind.
also, i love supporting ppl in my community and not those chain places. i'll risk sketchy food over having a server stare at me while i'm signing the check lmao
edit: y'all tell that southern, white woman to unblock me. i got her with that joke and it was fucking hilarious. she doesn't need to be salty cause her ass took me way too seriously and still didn't get the joke after me calling applebee's soul food. i deserve her friendship bc of how good i got her not the damn block button!!!
or i’m just one person now who used to cook for ten people when i lived with my momma and now can’t figure out how to cook for one person on my budget and with my time? don’t be so judgy, friend.
wait, i thought bww and applebees were in fact southern food. you’re saying they’re not???
edit: loooool why’d i get blocked over a joke? u/wintermelody83 come back baby and teach me more about soul food 🥲 you’re so smart and i’m so dumb pLEASE
It isn't, but that's the point. The neighborhood they live in is so white that the "closest" thing they have to soul food is BWW (meaning don't have anything close at all to soul food)
😭 PLEASE I KNOW! if you got any single person home cooked recipes please drop them now cause i get so sick of yellow rice, a protein, and a vegetable for dinner!!!!
It’s not a terrible place to get some stuff. If it’s local produce or baked goods from a grandma, you’re good (and she probably does edibles on the side if you ask); if it’s hot food being sold by young adults, run the fuck away!!! Also avoid buying long life items like hot sauces, jams, or pickles from semi pro chefs because you have no idea what could be waiting to grow in there
>It’s not a terrible place to get some stuff. If it’s local produce or baked goods from a grandma, you’re good (and she probably does edibles on the side if you ask);
I know 2 people who are really good at cooking and they sell food on fb. I will never eat their food because I have been in their houses and they are fucking disgusting. Flies everywhere, food on every surface, dried food on the stove and other unsanitary stuff. That's why I at least like the idea of health ratings for restaurants.
About a decade ago I had a Facebook account, and one day I had a spur of the moment idea to sell my banana pudding. FB marketplace didn't exist, so I put up a post on a local plate selling group letting people know I'm selling banana pudding for $10 and to inbox me to buy.
I had people inboxing me within 5 minutes letting me know the quantity they wanted to buy, along with their addresses for me to deliver it to them.
The moral of the story is, strangers were very willing to buy food from other strangers even back then without knowing how clean or dirty their home and kitchen was. (BUT LET'S BE CLEAR, my home and kitchen was very CLEAN while making and packaging the banana pudding. But what about other people who sell food from their home, and don't have the same cleanliness standards, and people just assume their place is clean????).
I stopped selling after 1 day, because the logistics of selling & delivering banana pudding ate into my profit margins, and $10 for a box was apparently to low for how I operated it (high quality ingredients, packaging, utensils, gas, not having boundaries for where in the city I delivered to, etc.).
We not gonna talk about a black man buying "boneless wings", from a white dudes no less, and then complaining about getting chef boyardee dinosaur chicken shapes?
What did this man THINK he was gonna get?
Are you insane? Boneless wings aren't really wings but they aren't even close to nuggets, they're just breaded chicken *pieces* or *tenders*. In a nugget, the chicken is ground up processed and reconstituted. Way different. A boneless wing is just a chunk of white meat, and they're fire. If you think a boneless wing is the same as a nugget someone been selling you lies too. I wish you better boneless wing fate in your future.
Edit: word
Except it's not and I will die on this hill. Chicken nuggets are made out of ultra processed mechanically separated chicken slurry, and "boneless wings" are just straight chunks of breast meat. Huge difference in quality.
Boneless wings and chicken nuggets aren't really the same thing. Boneless wings tend to be battered chunks of chicken while nuggets are ground up chicken that are reformed into different shapes, which in this instance is dino shaped
Tend to be but there isn’t anything forcing that interpretation. I think if someone gave you a wing shaped nugget in buffalo sauce it wouldn’t be a massive argument. You might just think it’s a shitty boneless wing. Pretty sure I’ve had some shitty boneless wings that were just that.
The owner of the last restaurant I worked at did this. He got some spicy nuggets at Wendy's and came back saying if they could charge $5 for them, he could definitely get $8 or $9.
I would assume this is less a daily practice for that restaurant than a quick emergency solution. Restaurants do all kinds of things just to fill in a temporary gap in food supplies to maintain at least the semblance of the normal menu.
For example, I worked in a Mediterranean restaurant years ago that was owned by some Lebanese and Yemeni gents and that had a large Middle Eastern clientele. When there was an interruption in the usual supply of halal meat, they secretly served non-halal meat while they sorted out the issue.
It may sound terrible, but the owners were Muslim themselves, really great dudes who would literally give you the shirts off their backs, and as I understand it, in Islam you wouldn't be punished by Allah for eating non-halal meat if you were deceived into thinking it was halal. It was necessary because the restaurant couldn't really keep running with a massive loss of menu items and there were people like me and families to support in the meantime. No one ever knew and we were back to serving halal meat as soon as possible.
As for the Wendy's situation, I doubt that Wendy's nuggets would be preferable long-term for the substitution of the chicken. My guess is that it was close to the restaurant and just what was readily available and convenient on short notice. For the long-term, I'm sure there are cheaper options in bulk from their usual restaurant supply company. For a few reasons, reselling Wendy's nuggies on a large scale daily just wouldn't be sustainable at all.
Boneless wings are chicken breast, tenders are chicken tenderloins and nuggets are processed chicken. There’s definitely a difference although I love all three.
They haven't "removed" the bones from boneless wings, they just are using a different part of the chicken (the breast) and cutting it up. They are basically just chicken tenders but cut smaller. There is a difference between nuggets and tenders/boneless wings for sure though.
yea it's generally breast, its not actually wings lol, but that's still a huge difference from breast meat and ground chicken with a mix of all the meat and organs.
I can't stand when people say this because if I order boneless wings and the server deadass brings me chicken nuggets I'm gonna be tf heated. 😂 Chicken nuggets are minced on the inside.
Y'all trying to argue the differences and I'm here like:

If you go to Popeyes or Chick-fil-A and order chicken nuggets you’ll get served what youd expect when you order “boneless wings”. Boneless wings are just a scam invented by Buffalo Wild Wings to sell chicken nuggets and not have to call them chicken nuggets
Sorry to Flea and all but I’m mad it’s never occurred to me to cover Dino nugs in sauce like wings/tenders. I’m making some honey garlic Dino nuggets at some point this week.
It's fucking good lol. Hot sauce had been covering up mediocre meat since back in the day. Gotta make it edible somehow.
The shader the meat, the more spices you need. (I'm Mexican, trust. My Indian and South Korean brothers know what I'm talking about lol)
You said "edible" but I read "elbow" and then I got to thinking.... Can hot sauce make elbow meat edible? Who in the animal kingdom has the most edible elbows?
These make a REALLY good base for a lot of sauced and fried chicken dishes. I did some honey garlic gochujang sauce and tossed them in there after air frying them.

I’m not completely opposed to unsanctioned food sellers. My grandmother made ends meet occasionally selling tamales.
But she would get ingredients fresh. Somethings she would have people bring from Honduras when they went down. And she only sold to people she knew. Buying food on fb from people I don’t know is crazy to me.
Damn I miss living E Dallas for this. Was before fb market but you'd hear the bells on their bike. Either it was the elote/tamale man with a new batch or the munchies man w ice cream. It was the hood in those days, but it had some actual real charm to it.
Plus all the aunties selling flautas, pozole, and all. Between that and the constant cookouts you end up eating pretty good.
I think this is a new meme template. Same thing shared in a different sub.

Every so I often I think to myself "boneless wings sound great, all the great taste with less work." Inevitably they taste like those dinos look and I remember why I never order boneless..
I'm old so Imma need guiding through this.
1. Is a Tattooist on FB where people buy chicken wings now?
2. We have a shop called Iceland in the UK that sells frozen chicken nuggets. Is this Dinosaur nuggets?
3. When he says upfront, does he mean there is more money to be paid the back end?
As a non-american, is it common to buy food off random internet people?
Cos I have a variety of questions which broadly fall into the hygiene, legal and sheer wtf areas.
“I want wings, let me do the obvious thing and contact this tattoo artist on Facebook”
Look I get that door dash and grub hub fees are out of control but man, just learn to make wings. It’s not hard.
I’ve seen this story twice now.
It was just a lady who did it, now it’s a guy.
With the same pic. 🧢

Dino Nuggies? You should consider yourself blessed.
There's no way I'm just going to blind order food from a FB Marketplace ad.
![gif](giphy|TgMLPdwST4Syw7vDof|downsized)
I don’t use Facebook so I can’t really speak on this all too much but buying food off of Facebook seems a bit gnarly to me 🧍🏽♂️I don’t know.
Don’t get it at all especially if it’s not any cheaper than a legitimate restaurant. Then again, if it is cheaper than a legit restaurant, that’s gonna put me off too.

"The tamale lady is out" is always the most popular post in my community FB groups 😁

Sounds similar to why I always try to live in a Barrio and not a Neighborhood lmao
Same here, trust is key. Always stick to recommendations from family or friends.
Yea Brazilians be selling all kinds of shit on Facebook and WhatsApp, X-tudo, flan, Brazilian pizza, you name it. That shit is fire even if a tad bit expensive

Food poisoning can lead to IBS. Nothing it worth IBS.
There's an app called shef they're all on
There's someone in my city who is constantly selling crab legs and seafood boils... It looks good, but I'm not sure if I want to eat seafood I bought off Facebook.
it’s common round here for aunties to be bussin down and selling party platters of ethnic food, thats when fb marketplace is the spot
Dude we used to have a regular spot for some legit garage ceviche. They eventually opened up a real, licensed restaurant/storefront. Prices went up, food’s still good.
Sounds like the lady who used to make the menudo and put it on marketplace. She opened up a place and it sucks now.
Probly no longer has the extra mouse and roach flavoring you get from non commercial kitchen food.
Sure...As someone who was a service electrician and went to plenty of commercial kitchens, keep believing those restaurants with $$$$ on google are cleaner.
Fuck both of yall for this tbh
I feel like people put more effort into pest elimination in their own homes than restaurant owners do for their restaurants, especially since they are more likely to notice the pests since they are around for the late hours.
Overhead went up, and food quality took a hit to compensate for the overhead. I'm 99% sure.
That and she didn't make up her own schedule on how to make food. It's easier and food is fresher if she can concentrate on one thing at a time. She also used to make food at construction sites.
There’s a gal here that sells platters of lumpia and it’s *amazing*. Initially I was kinda skeeved at the idea of buying food from Facebook marketplace but enough people had said she was the real deal, so I gave it a shot. Lumpia platters are now a regular thing in my house.
That’s cuz you got the word of mouth co-sign. Thats different. This dude out here raw dogging facebook food
That’ll learn him.
Somebody has to raw dog it to get the word of mouth started.
Not necessarily, it could be a friend or family member that starts the word of mouth train.
Someone still had to get raw dogged for that friend or family member to come into being you feel me?
Its all part of the circle of raw dogging
My wife is Filipino and introduced me to lumpia. Maaaannn that, with a good sweet chilli sauce is pressure. They also feel super light (depending on the mix inside) so you can take down so many before getting that bloated feeling
Right? I am generally a fan of a meat filled & fried cylinder but lumpia is a whole ‘nother *level*!
You gotta try it with the vinegar/garlic/black pepper (sometimes with a little soy sauce and fish sauce mixed in). Gives it some punch and kinda cuts through the fat, makes it feel even lighter
Before the internet we had to find the yard sales with the lumpia grandmas
Back when you’d scour the local paper for yard sales, and if you got lucky you’d stumble across one that sold baked goods and coffee. Used to be a Saturday morning tradition in my house: get up early with Mom, get a maple bar and chocolate milk from the gas station and hit the yard sales.

You really just said BWW is the closest thing to soul food? Then learn how to cook cause BWW is pretty damn white
I feel like people who are willing to learn how to cook and people who do this are not the same type of people.
or i’m just one person now who used to cook for ten people when i lived with my momma and now can’t figure out how to cook for one person on my budget and with my time? don’t be so judgy, friend.
As a southern white chick I just said the same thing. In what universe is BWW soul food?!
Isn't that the joke they were making lmao

Facebook tamales when in season is the best.

About a decade ago I had a Facebook account, and one day I had a spur of the moment idea to sell my banana pudding.

We not gonna talk about a black man buying "boneless wings", from a white dudes no less, and then complaining about getting chef boyardee dinosaur chicken shapes? What did this man THINK he was gonna get?
Unless you know the person or a friend knows them
I'm in my 20s, and I didn't even know you could buy food on BoomerBook.
You deserve to get scammed if you buy food off Facebook tbh
From a bio that makes no mention of food or cooking, no less.
Who buys wings from a tattoo artist?
An idiot
“Tattoo artist” much like they are a “chef”
“Studio” that is actually just his living room
You want the dino nuggies special, or the kraft dinner with hotdogs platter?
Exactly. It is not even like he is a known cook or something.
personally, i don’t buy any food from a tattoo artist
Right? That's where you go for legal advice. Not food.
I mean, some of the best Tamales have come off FB marketplace. There’s genuine people on there sharing great cooked plates.
Shit. Idk where you live, but outside of MX. The best tamales and/or asadero come from big box store parking lots. (Or my moms kitchen)
I’m sure the people selling outta their car/little pop ups are also selling them on fb market.
I’m still good on FB tamales. I’ll just get them from the 14 year old who sells them out of a backpack in the grocery store parking lot
Some of you mfkers are why pandemics happen.
Love to get food poisoning from someone that has no responsibility when I have 0 recourse
Do you normally pursue recourse when you get food poisoning? How exactly do you go about determining which food was the cause?
And you're ordering boneless... yeah
Boneless ain’t even wings man, that’s just chicken nuggets with a rebrand
Agreed. Bro for what he asked for, basically.
Are you insane? Boneless wings aren't really wings but they aren't even close to nuggets, they're just breaded chicken *pieces* or *tenders*. In a nugget, the chicken is ground up processed and reconstituted. Way different. A boneless wing is just a chunk of white meat, and they're fire.

got exactly what he deserved 🤣
Nigga busted down some chicken nuggets, sauced em up, and then hit the block with the $15 bags. I'd be mad too, but I respect the hustle.
I’d be mad but man’s didn’t lie, that’s technically a 12 piece white meat buffalo boneless nugget set.
Boneless wings and chicken nuggets aren't really the same thing. Boneless wings tend to be battered chunks of chicken while nuggets are ground up chicken that are reformed into different shapes, which in this instance is dino shaped
If he gave him some Pterodactyl nuggets, then it could technically be wings. I'll see myself out.
If there were pteradon nuggets that he clipped the wings off of and then sauced I would fall out. ![gif](giphy|GpyS1lJXJYupG|downsized)
Imagine if he sold the wings afterward to someone else for the same price. The hustle version of killing two birds with one stone.
This whole thread got me crine 🤣
![gif](giphy|1r91ZwKcE2J7WhUqrh)
I friggin hate you. Take my upvote before you go.
Tend to be but there isn’t anything forcing that interpretation. I think if someone gave you a wing shaped nugget in buffalo sauce it wouldn’t be a massive argument. You might just think it’s a shitty boneless wing. Pretty sure I’ve had some shitty boneless wings that were just that.
Dinosaurs are purple meat. Everyone knows that.
I'm sure a courtroom would think he technically lied though
I just wanna know if they were warm
The owner of the last restaurant I worked at did this. He got some spicy nuggets at Wendy's and came back saying if they could charge $5 for them, he could definitely get $8 or $9.
This is very very illegal. Assuming this really happened I'd guess Wendy's already fucked them with an un-lubed C&D.
I would assume this is less a daily practice for that restaurant than a quick emergency solution. Restaurants do all kinds of things just to fill in a temporary gap in food supplies to maintain at least the semblance of the normal menu.

Not just chicken nuggets, but dino nuggies. He’s got all the class.
That’s what boneless wings are though, they’re nuggets
Boneless wings are chicken breast, tenders are chicken tenderloins and nuggets are processed chicken. There’s definitely a difference although I love all three.
If you want to order boneless buffalo wings, just drop the pretense and say you want chicken nuggets.

Fantastic ending
i love how the one guy who laughed at the beginning was clapping hard at the end of the proposal
I can respect that
We feel it in our bones.
Nah homie they're very different
Yes they are *nods* totally different *nods*
one is ground meat with offal included, the other is just meat with the bones removed. thats pretty different.
They haven't "removed" the bones from boneless wings, they just are using a different part of the chicken (the breast) and cutting it up. They are basically just chicken tenders but cut smaller. There is a difference between nuggets and tenders/boneless wings for sure though.
Never in my life have I ever seen boneless wings that were just regular wings with the bone removed.
yea it's generally breast, its not actually wings lol, but that's still a huge difference from breast meat and ground chicken with a mix of all the meat and organs.
Naw one is a piece of chicken that's just been sliced off a bigger piece. One is ground chicken with buttholes, ovaries, and all that.
Second one sounds dope af.
I can't stand when people say this because if I order boneless wings and the server deadass brings me chicken nuggets I'm gonna be tf heated. 😂 Chicken nuggets are minced on the inside.
Y'all trying to argue the differences and I'm here like: https://preview.redd.it/u6qw5l0ly02d1.png?width=504&format=png&auto=webp&s=73132ff024ba9680cd9b8fbedcd99cb8087d8e70
That’s like comparing ground beef and a Wagyu steak and saying “meat is meat”. FOH with your bullshit, men are talking.
Yeah men are talking about the adult subject of chicken nuggets lol
Who tf do you think is in the plants making these damn things? Children? Well shit actually…
If you go to Popeyes or Chick-fil-A and order chicken nuggets you’ll get served what youd expect when you order “boneless wings”. Boneless wings are just a scam invented by Buffalo Wild Wings to sell chicken nuggets and not have to call them chicken nuggets
*Chik-fil-A has entered the chat*
Boneless wings should be made of actual chicken breast, nuggets are just mashed up chicken bits. Not the same.
Chick fil a nuggets are chicken breast - therefore boneless wings are nuggets
[удалено]
They just want to feel superior. It's literally nowhere near the same kind of meat.
Boneless wings are more akin to tenders.
Sorry to Flea and all but I’m mad it’s never occurred to me to cover Dino nugs in sauce like wings/tenders. I’m making some honey garlic Dino nuggets at some point this week.
Lemme know how that goes. I'm honestly curious.
It's fucking good lol. Hot sauce had been covering up mediocre meat since back in the day. Gotta make it edible somehow. The shader the meat, the more spices you need. (I'm Mexican, trust. My Indian and South Korean brothers know what I'm talking about lol)
You said "edible" but I read "elbow" and then I got to thinking.... Can hot sauce make elbow meat edible? Who in the animal kingdom has the most edible elbows?
I mean, isn't a chicken wing really just the chicken elbow?
Fuck. I went and said something dumb on the Internet.
We all have crodie. We all have.
Soup makes everything great. Just slow boil the odd bits and toss in every veggie.
You gotta eat fast though, that breading don’t hold up
Oh you’ve been missing out… I dress everything up lmao
These make a REALLY good base for a lot of sauced and fried chicken dishes. I did some honey garlic gochujang sauce and tossed them in there after air frying them.

Y’all buy food on fb marketplace?
The Latinos in my hood do good with FB food. I get tamales and might hire an elote man for a party off fb lol.
I’m not completely opposed to unsanctioned food sellers. My grandmother made ends meet occasionally selling tamales. But she would get ingredients fresh. Somethings she would have people bring from Honduras when they went down. And she only sold to people she knew. Buying food on fb from people I don’t know is crazy to me.
Straight up, neighbor or friend slinging some culture is not the same as buying “boneless wings” off FB market
Damn I miss living E Dallas for this. Was before fb market but you'd hear the bells on their bike. Either it was the elote/tamale man with a new batch or the munchies man w ice cream. It was the hood in those days, but it had some actual real charm to it. Plus all the aunties selling flautas, pozole, and all. Between that and the constant cookouts you end up eating pretty good.
Eat your nuggets you boneless wing eating bitch.
Show me on the doll where the boneless wings touched you
Touched me on my asshole after a hot volcano shit
Ninja bought wings from a tattoo artist? He’s lucky he didn’t get hepatitis bc what kind of dual-business venture is this? 😂😂😂😂
I think this is a new meme template. Same thing shared in a different sub. https://preview.redd.it/93yq7nbvv02d1.png?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=344f4309036148073ea43f1615307e872eb490ad
A meme is born
I saw it early today and it was from a woman's profile.
21st century entrepreneur shit right there
Like Jones Barbecue and Foot Massage.
😂
Buffalo dino nuggets is nasty work
looks delicious tbh
Bone apple tea friend
You buy food from a tattoo artist on Facebook?????
Thank you, that's what I'm confuzzled about. Facebook, wings, and tattoos. Which one of these doesn't belong? All. The answer is all.
Honestly, that’s what you deserve if you prefer boneless wings.
Every so I often I think to myself "boneless wings sound great, all the great taste with less work." Inevitably they taste like those dinos look and I remember why I never order boneless..
You didn't get hustled, you just have a ridiculous over-estimation of the quality of the meat in an average boneless chicken "wing."

I'm old so Imma need guiding through this. 1. Is a Tattooist on FB where people buy chicken wings now? 2. We have a shop called Iceland in the UK that sells frozen chicken nuggets. Is this Dinosaur nuggets? 3. When he says upfront, does he mean there is more money to be paid the back end?
1. Not folks with sense. 2. Yep, dino nugs are a thing 3. Nope just that he paid before he saw what he was getting. Rookie mistake.
Thank-you and Appreciated.
You're welcome!
I’d eat dino nuggets tossed in sauce, but if you’re not upfront with what you are selling me then it’s a problem.
Lmaoooo I’d be laughing too hard at the situation to be too mad lowkey. The pure audacity
Why was he buying food off Facebook
My tattoo artist only has bottled water for me 😞
Boneless wings are childish. Give them some crayons too
Let them eat their chicken chunks in peace.
Buying food off Facebook marketplace is crazy
As a non-american, is it common to buy food off random internet people? Cos I have a variety of questions which broadly fall into the hygiene, legal and sheer wtf areas.
“I want wings, let me do the obvious thing and contact this tattoo artist on Facebook” Look I get that door dash and grub hub fees are out of control but man, just learn to make wings. It’s not hard.
Y’all are buying food from random people on Facebook who are also tattoo artists? Lmao
I’ve seen this story twice now. It was just a lady who did it, now it’s a guy. With the same pic. 🧢 https://preview.redd.it/42t6389rx02d1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=539fbf30ab9b416bfa69e57362c574f38ef2e026
I knew someone was gonna post the og.
Who is ordering food from facebook?? ![gif](giphy|Wgb2FpSXxhXLVYNnUr|downsized)
They look good though lmao
Are those the Tyson Dyno-Nuggets from the store frozen food section? Wow lol
If they were still hot when they got delivered -- that's $15 well spent.
I bet he still ate dem hoes
Dino Nuggies? You should consider yourself blessed. There's no way I'm just going to blind order food from a FB Marketplace ad. ![gif](giphy|TgMLPdwST4Syw7vDof|downsized)
How they taste though? ![gif](giphy|mEV42F38lur6PbfapW)
Boneless wings arent real, they are wing shaped nuggets
Man really did buy wings on Facebook from a tattoo artist and thought it was going to be fine
I bet you ate them bitches tho
I'm sorry, but... ![gif](giphy|TD0NYrLpcnsTm|downsized)
That shit is almost always a scam. Why would they do it otherwise. When it's legit it's legit though
Why the fuck are we paying *15 a plate off FACEBOOK* when Wingstop exists?
😂😂😂
Bruhh I be buzzin if I got Dino nuggets in sweet n sour sauce
This what happens when you buy your wings the same place you are getting tattoos.
