2. Because everything TASTES like chicken.

On Edit:

I haven't eaten meat in over 20 years, but I can say with absolute certainty (based on the prior 27 years) that chicken doesn't HAVE a taste. So saying it "tastes like chicken" is safe for pretty much anything with no flavor. Tell me again why the fuck I ate that shit? :puke:

3. Farm Bred chicken is good...
Store bought chicken tastes like what ever you added to it when cooking...

4. I had farm bread chicken as a kid. It still doesn't really have a flavor. Neither does turkey.
And most ham just tastes like salt. That's that.

5. Depends on the method of cooking used as well.
You can boil the taste out of just about anything, including a chicken breast.

6. I just know that carp is Mississippi tuna.
Chicken's just got to re-brand itself I guess.

8. Funny how Charlie's dark rimmed glasses are making a comeback.
Course, he doesn't know that cause he's 'down there'.

11. The whole shrimp size thing is puzzling.
Is tiny shrimp repetitive?

Is jumbo shrimp an oxymoron?

18. Because
big fish that normally eat tuna do not typically plop outta the water and flop as they chase chickens and eat them.
