Try to settle the dispute
There was once a Scotsman and an Englishman who lived next door to each other. The Scotsman owned a hen and each morning would look in his garden and pick up one of his hen's eggs for breakfast.
One day he looked outside and saw that the hen had laid an egg in the Englishman's garden. He was about to go next door when he saw the Englishman pick up the egg. The Scotsman ran up to the Englishman and told him that the egg belonged to him because he owned the hen. The Englishman disagreed because the egg was laid on his property.
They argued for a while until finally the Scotsman said, "In my family we normally solve disputes by the following actions: I punch you in the nose and note how long it takes you to recover, then you punch me in the nose and note how long it takes for me to recover, whomever recovers quicker wins the egg."
The Englishman agreed to this and so the Scotsman held the heaviest object he could find, took a few steps back, then ran toward the Englishman and punched him as hard as he could in the nose. The Englishman fell to the ground and was howling in agony and holding his nose for thirty minutes.
Eventually the Englishman stood up and said, "Now it's my turn to punch you."
The Scotsman said, "Keep the lousy egg."

Probably depends on a lot of things. What is legally constituted as "boneless" it may not mean completely without bones. Legally, most things are not as simple as they seem. Also, the environment in which you found the bone, your witnesses, ect. will greatly effect your ability to sue. In summation, unless you were severly injured by eating a "boneless" chicken breast, dont bother. Your judgement would probably only be a refund, and whats that, $1.50?

Yes you can.
Anyone can sue anyone for anything and for any amount.
The issue is: What are your damages?
Unless you needed medical care and/or suffered a serious injury, your case would cost more than the expense to try it.
Your best bet is to return it to where you bought the chicken in question and politely ask for your money back.
A letter with photo documentation might result in your money back and perhaps a bit more, like a gift certificate; but I wouldn't expect to get rich off of this mishap.

you could, yet large businesses like Tyson likely have large legal experts and the attempt and time doesn't be properly worth it. yet there is always a probability that you'll win and finally end up with a small fortune.

Did you also find a brain in your brainless head? Maybe you can sue yourself.
