Scales aren’t always 100% accurate and they may not be sensitive enough to pick up on small changes in weight. I would try the test again with a more accurate and sensitive scale. But regardless of what the scale says you can be assured that your friend’s weight increased by the weight of the food he/she consumed.

Try taking a heavy dumbell that you know the weight off and weigh yourself without it and then with it and see if the number changes by the same weight as the dumbell.

Only if you disregard him also loosing a tiny bit of weight while he is eating those wings, be it by sweating or just his base consumption of calories.
