Are chicken's just God's catchall? I mean everything tastes like chicken. Frogs, lizards, snakes, people (so I'm told). Why don't eggs taste like chicken? Why did God make chicken shit smell so bad?
mmmmmm chicken.
mmmmmm chicken.

I was once asked by a waiter how my chicken was. I told him it tasted just like snake!

Coincidentally, this matches with what we would see if we were inside a "gravastar," an object recently proposed by a couple scientists as Los Alamos National Laboratory. It's an alternative explanation for black holes that doesn't require infinite collapse into a singularity.
