Bone-in chicken is good, but you don’t typically want bones in a chicken sandwich. Browsing through online reviews of any fast food restaurant confirms this. Sandwiches are meant to be easy, labor-free eating, and encounters with bones are unexpected and upsetting. Unless you’re Vince Wilfork. From an Improper Bostonian interview with Devin McCourty:
Vince Wilfork is a chicken-eating master
The lingual dexterity involved must be incredible.

...Vince Wilfork can eat a piece of chicken on the bone. He’ll put it on bread, like it’s a sandwich, and somehow he’ll never bite the bone, and he eats the whole thing. I’ve never seen anyone else do that.
I, also, have never seen anyone do that. I would like to see it now, though. Just eating the bones themselves would seem pretty Vince Wilfork-y, but eating around the bones in a sandwich format is somehow more impressive. This is not just “big guy can eat” -- this is an amazing level of finesse.
