Dwight Yoakum's Chicken Rings

Dwight Yoakum's Chicken RingsGeez! How many times can chicken be reinvented?

New from Peru, ID-based Modern Foods comes, "Dwight Yoakum's Chicken Lickins Chicken Rings", under the company's "Bakersfield Biscuits" brand.

I found this while going through the latest market intelligence reports that I subscribe to. I had no idea that chickens had rings! Hell, I didn't know they had fingers.

In fact, I didn't know the alternative-country crooner had his own line of fatty-foods, did you?. Just goes to show how out-of-touch I am with the times.

If you need to know how Dwight Yoakum got into the food business, here it is.

  • i think this comes from the new trend of "finger-food", where food is actually designed to be eaten simply using your fingers with no need of fork ect. it can be nice and useful during a party... but i prefer the traditional shape of chicken! maybe also because i'm itlaian and i love traditional cooking instead of fast-food. nice site, i just discoverd it reading the magazine JACK in Italy. i'm an independent desinger, now of jewerly.

  • I don't think this is a new idea. For some reason i think White Castle did something like this maybe 6 or 7 years ago. My sister used to get them all the time.

  • Of course chickens have rings. What do you think they lay eggs through?

  • White Castle's chicken sandwiches are all ring based.

    I think these are just "Chicken and Cheese" without the cheese or the bun.

  • So many questions come to mind . . .

    Like, what the heck is chicken rib meat?

  • Yes, White Castle does have these. We like to call them "Deep Fried Chicken Sphincters".

  • Most chickens only have one or two rings that I know of and they already have a specific purpose which does not neccesarily include eating...

  • White Castle has been selling these for years.

  • I remember Walsh Middle School (Framingham, MA) sold cups of Chicken rings and curly fries (either/or) in the cafeteria....

  • yup yup!
    not only is this idea a remake, its an overrated remake.
    Henderson county has had "chicken rings" for YEARS!

    what gets me is the fact that they suck and everyone loves them...

    chicken sphincters....
    its a sick sick world...

  • Why would a vegetarian be pushing chicken? I spent 6 months of "country hell" on tour with him in 2001. Unless something has changed, his diet does not include meat.
