    Iā€™d be grateful if someone could tell me what started the ā€œtastes like chickenā€ line. Iā€™m sure it must have been some movie, but the last time I tried to find out, Google was no help.

    I think itā€™s mostly intended to be reassuring. A lot of people donā€™t want anything thatā€™s going to be too different from what their limited palate recognizes.

    Yeah, me too. I finally assumed they mean a ā€˜blandā€™ taste. Not gamey. Donā€™t forgot alligator tail, turtle, tortoiseā€¦Interestingly most comparitives are reptilian.

    That seems plausible, since birds evolved from reptiles.
