where's the outrage?
BINGHAMTON, NYPatrons at Thirstys Tavern and Grill confirmed Monday that the objectifying male gaze has fallen upon a $6.95 plate of buffalo chicken bites, resulting in the menu item being treated as if it serves no purpose beyond providing pleasure to the man who ordered it. By valuing the dish only for its ability to satisfy male appetites, the gaze has reportedly stripped the food of its individuality and reinforced outmoded, centuries-old attitudes toward deep-fried chicken. According to sources, the man could be seen almost drooling as he projected his desires onto the platter before him, looking upon the happy-hour favorite as nothing more than a passive thing to be dunked in ranch dressing and eagerly consumed. Critics of the mans perspective have argued that each buffalo chicken bite deserves to be considered on its own merits and valued accordingly as the piece of meat that it is.

by dunking them in ranch. They should have been dunked in bleu cheese dressing.

But objectification takes a back seat to the outrage over the CORN FLAKE breading. I mean, man!
