Anybody have any interesting dinosaur facts?

[–] schnitzelbub@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They very likely taste like chicken. Chicken are very closely related to dinosaurs and so are crocodiles. Crocodile/alligator meat also allegedly tastes very similarly to chicken.

Yum. I'd totally eat dino-meat, chicken-flavor or not.

Which dino you think tastes best?

[–] schnitzelbub@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'd bet on raptors, at least for familiarity and close relation to chicken. Pangea fried Caudipterix. PFC.

I'd turn that bad boy into a living-room sized schnitzel in a heartbeat.

*(Historically inaccurate as Caudipterix lived in the late jurassic/early cretaceous, when pangea was already kind of broken apart. Also, it was discovered in China) *

I can totally see a T-Rex rocking a crown.

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

Oh, yeah? How is it gonna put it on?

Well the dinos lasted millions of years so they are doing better than we are.

We haven’t even found fossils of their MBA degrees
