Super Bowl weekend is right around the corner, and we’re encouraging everyone attending Super Bowl parties or watching the game to try delicious and widely available plant-based wings that are sure to satisfy your game-day cravings.

Chickens are extraordinary animals with complex social structures and 30 different vocalizations to distinguish between threats. They’re loving mothers, too. Mother hens are known to defend their babies from predators and can vocalize with them before they’ve even hatched.

Sadly, an estimated 700 chickens are slaughtered for people watching the Super Bowl alone so that their wings, thighs, and legs can be eaten.

The good news is that we can all take a stand against cruelty and save chickens’ lives on Super Bowl Sunday and beyond by choosing delicious plant-based chicken wings that don’t harm any animals.

Check out some of our top picks below — even if you’re not planning on watching the game!
