We have all heard the phrase "tastes like chicken" answered when one asks what something taste like. Seeing as how Sunday's are always boring for a police officer on a college campus, I began wondering about this today. As I thought about all the foods people referred to as tasting like chicken I had a eureka moment. It seems to me that when someone has never tried a dish made from a reptile or amphibian it is said to taste like chicken. Be it snake, alligator, frog the list goes on. That being said it has been proven, at least in the south, that natives have been shooting (with there traditional bows, had to throw this in hear to tie it in to trad hunting)eating reptiles (especially alligators) since the beginning. It may be just me, but I think that a reptile dinner was probably eaten long before a chicken dinner. So that being said, I think it's time we set the world straight in regards to the tastes like chicken cliche. You know, there are many evolutionary scientist who believe that birds evolved from dinosaurs because of bone structures and densities and the apparent evidence of feathers appearing on the last of the dinosaurs. If that is the case, would T-Rex have tasted like chicken? All I am trying to say is what if chicken does not taste like chicken? I think chicken taste like alligator, or maybe rattlesnake, or possibly even the aforementioned T-Rex? Who knows, I just wanted to try to give this great group of folks something entirely useless and mindless to ponder over and hopefully, just maybe draw a laugh or two. Hope all are having a beautiful Sunday!
