{{quote|Among both amphibians and land-based (jargon: terrestrial) animals, some degree of "chicken-like" flavor developed and has persisted among all the tetrapods. In fact, among the vast and varied four-legged community, there are only minor exceptions, such as the evolution of "beef-like" and "pork-like" flavor among mammals.|"Tastes Like Chicken?", Joe Staton, ''Annals of Improbable Research'', vol. IV no. 4, 1998, pp. 5-9.}}
{{quote|A gourmet once challenged me to eat
A tiny bit of rattlesnake meat.
Remarking, "don't look horror-stricken
You'll find it tastes a lot like chicken."
It did.
Now chicken I cannot eat
Because it tastes like rattlesnake meat.|'''[[Ogden Nash]]''', "Experiment Degustatory"}}
