    Chicken is dinosaur meat.

      So dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets are… Hm…

        That was a recent showerthoughts post.

        A couple of people got really weirdly mad about it, too.

        Something about the circle of life

    Frog tastes like chicken.

      It really does. I had fried frog legs in Malaysia. Just like tiny chicken wings.

      So “yes”, then.

        Yes.

      With the texture of fish

    I’ve eaten alligator tail and it senses like a cross between chicken and white fish so maybe something like that

    It depends on how much frog DNA they use when they clone them.

      To make a DINO-SOAH!

    Depends on the dinosaur. Chicken, duck, goose, ostrich all taste a little different and other dinos would vary as well.

    It’d depend on the dinosaur wouldn’t it?

      This. Why would all dinosaurs taste the same? All birds don’t taste the same, and they pretty much are dinosaurs.

      Also, I bet that those ancient dinosaurs tasted a lot more wild and gave me than some farm-bred chicken.

    I’ve had frog, it’s practically the original “tastes like chicken” food. They have maybe the slightest bit of fishiness to them, but nothing a little bit of seasoning won’t almost totally cover up.

    Similarly gator is also almost a dead-ringer for chicken, just chewier (not surprising, I’m pretty sure just need to look at a gator to be able to tell it was gonna be tough and chewy)

    So I’m thinking odds are that dino tastes like chicken.

    Depends if you are asking based on the scientific defenition of “dinosaur” or the pop culture understanding of a dinosaur.

    Scientific: chicken

    Pop culture: Who fucking knows? Jurrasic park ruined palentology, and the general publics understanding of what a dinosaur even is. Most of them come from different families and some possibly from other phylum so it would be a mix of random whatever so maybe a fishy hotdog?

      To make matters worse, Jurassic Park spliced together dino DNA fragments with frog DNA to make their “dinosaurs”, so your dino meat might taste froggier depending on where you get it from. Non-GMO dino nuggets probably taste indistinguishable from chicken.

    Maybe it would taste like a crocodile?

  • Cort@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I’m betting the avian dinosaurs tasted like chicken. Or maybe turkey, with a hint of goose.

    Best shower thought in ages.

  • teft@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I prefer to think they taste like duck. Tasty.

    source
  • Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I’m thinking more like ostrich. BIG ostrich.

  • wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Common mistake. Dinosaurs actually tasted like dinosaurs.

    source
    • grue@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Chicken tastes like dinosaurs too, though.
