What can I say. I went to dozens of Buffalo area bars with my friend and
we were told oleo. He used oleo for his wings. I helped out in the
kitchen for a while.  I also used to have a deep fryer at home and made
chicken wings almost every week. I tried improving them by using butter
a couple times. They were much better with margarine.

 
I ate Buffalo wings pretty frequently when I lived in a town that
had a Hooters.  Much less often after I moved away, and vanishingly
rarely now that I don't go to bars at all.

After heart surgery I had a session with a cardiac dietitian who told me
I should never eat wings. She explained about the about of fat in the
wings, the fat they are fried in, the likelihood of trans fats, the fat
and salt in the sauce, plus the fat in the dressing.... and the beer.

I translated that instruction to meaning I could only have them once a
year. I did that for a few years. Then one year I went out for beer and
wings after a kayaking session. They were horrible.  They would have
been disappointing at the best of times but even more so when that was
my wig dose for the year. I have to admit it reduced my craving for wings.

AI:
“Wig” can be used in pop culture (especially online) to mean
something shocking or amazing (like “That performance was so good,
my wig flew off!”), but “wig dose” isn't a common phrase even in
that slang world.
