People who order their Buffalo wings especially spicy and sometimes find them to be too "hot," should choose milk to reduce the burn, according to Penn State researchers, who also suggest it does not matter if it is whole or skim.
[...]The researchers looked at five beverages and involved 72 people -- 42 women and 30 men. Participants drank spicy Bloody Mary mix, containing capsaicin. Immediately after swallowing, they rated the initial burn.
Then, in subsequent separate trials, they drank purified water, cola, cherry-flavored Kool-Aid, seltzer water, non-alcoholic beer, skim milk and whole milk. Participants continued to rate perceived burn every 10 seconds for two minutes. There were eight trials. Seven included one of the test beverages and one trial did not include a test beverage.
The initial burn of the spicy Bloody Mary mix was, on average, rated below "strong" but above "moderate" by participants and continued to decay over the two?minutes of the tests to a mean just above "weak," according to lead researcher Alissa Nolden. All beverages significantly reduced the burn of the mix, but the largest reductions in burn were observed for whole milk, skim milk and Kool-Aid.
If the wings are too spicy, isn't the solution to dip them in the blue cheese or ranch dressing?

I'd say:
If the wings are too spicy, isn't the solution to eat something else instead?

"If the wings are too spicy"
I'm having difficulty parsing this.
What is too spicy?

Some like it hot!

I suppose that might be ok if you dilute it with Ghost Peppers or something.

In the context, the wings.
Around here, we don't refer to the wife with "it".

No. If the wings too spicy, you must dip. Read the court transcript.

No, this is the submitter's comments.
As it comes, part of the S/N editorializing.
