Chicken Wings - Taste Too Good?

[sethro5hc]

So this past weekend I decided to make some chicken wings.  The only ingredients were:

 

• chicken wings (obviously)
• clarified butter
• salt and pepper
• Frank's hot sauce (just red cayenne peppers and vinegar)

I baked them in the oven.  I swear that they tasted just as good as regular fried wings.  In fact, they tasted so good that I was actually worried that something about it went against the rules of Whole30.  Has anybody ever had this happen?  Something tasted so good that you thought it must be against the rules?  Is this a case of "paleoifying" a junk food?  I bake chicken all the time with hot sauce or different spices, and I know that is compliant so I thought this would be the same but the result just seemed "too good".

Nothing wrong with healthy food tasting really good. As long as eating them didn't trigger a desire to eat junk food you are good to go.

Just remember that the fat to meat ratio of wings is kind of high. When it comes to consuming protein, other parts of the bird offer more.

Eating delicious food is not cheating Food is supposed to taste good.

Has anybody ever had this happen?  Something tasted so good that you thought it must be against the rules?  

 

YES!  Every time I eat a sweet potato.  And turnip hash.  And fried plantains with cinnamon.  Pork shoulder.  Beef tenderloin.  Coffee with coconut milk.
