Of all phrases used in the english language, none have frustrated and annoyed me more than the aforementioned.
This is, of course, used to describe the flavour (by many people) of alternative meat sources.
I've heard this stupid claim made in regards to Alligator, cockroach "meat", Rabbit, snake, eel, Mako Shark, fried snails and, according to my 12th grade biology teacher, human flesh...Now, how he knows this...Ah, whatever.
Is everyone else's tastebuds set to retard mode, or are mine? I've tried some of these and the only thing I have ever eaten that tastes like chicken is chicken!
The one thing that really gets my goat is when you are served your meat-like meal with a hefty helping of "tastes just like chicken" on the side, bite into it and exclaim "this tastes nothing like chicken!"
To which, the response is "well...Y'gotta, kinda get into the mindset."
WHAT??? You served it to me, looked me straight in the eye and told me it tastes just like chicken! Now you're telling me that the only way this piece of multi-tentacled shit will taste like chicken is if I play some Tom Clancy, race-against-the-clock-before they blow up the Whitehouse Harrison Ford psychological thriller bullshit in my own head before I stick the fork in my mouth?
Fuck your hillbilly ass!
On the up side, at least the western culture is in agreeance that the only alternative meat source that definately does NOT taste like chicken are McDonald's chicken McNuggets...I hear they taste just like ass.
I'm getting a headache. I think I'll pop a few Advil and lie down. I hear if you suck on sixty eight of those fuckers at once for fifty hours straight, they taste just like chicken.
