My claim is most meats taste like chicken! Why would God make fruit and vegetables taste like chicken? People don't like vegetables and fruit tasting like chicken because of its wet texture when with meat it's alright because of its rough dry texture.

So obvious...:banghead:
Most meat doesn't taste like chicken, however. Who sincerely says vegetables and fruits taste like chicken - at least, not in the context of a joke?

(Incidentally, your final statement betrays your trollish behavior.)

You apparently don't appreciate my posts, because you fail to address them. I'll reiterate - your claim that because everything tastes like chicken, evolution is falsified (and, by extension, ID claims victory), is outright false. We all took it as a joke, because you're using a dated joke as substantiation for ID.
What dated joke?

Again, I say most meat tastes like chicken! What don't you understand about this? :banghead:

We all do. We're simply humoring him now.

The statement "tastes like chicken" is an old joke, not meant to be taken seriously. Are you even serious in your claims? None of us are convinced.

Do you have any proof for this assertion? I provided mine.

I wonder why would anyone find something unusual about flesh of related animals tasting somewhat similar.

I'm going to guess that this is a disgruntled poster who was given the banhammer not long ago.

A quick Google-search would solve that. Plus, where's your evidence that most meats actually taste like chicken?

If so, then whom? I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, however.

As an explanation of why unusual meats would taste more like chicken than common alternatives such as beef or pork, different possibilities have been offered. One suggestion is that chicken has a bland taste because fat contributes more flavor than muscle (especially in the case of a lean cut such as a skinless chicken breast), making it a generic choice for comparison. Also, chicken reportedly has lower levels of glutamates that contribute to the "savory" aspect of taste sometimes known as umami; processing or tenderizing other meats would also lower glutamate levels and make them taste more like chicken.
