Right now, it looks like people are going bonkers for the boneless type.

A study from hospitality research firm GuestMetrics showed that boneless chicken wings are getting increasingly popular.

Total chicken wing sales grew 10.7 percent in 2012 compared with the year prior. Orders increased 7.3 percent in 2012 and menu prices jumped 3.4 percent.

Most of that growth had nothing to do with traditional bone-in wings though. It was all about the boneless.
