Okja from the movie Okja. Super pigs would presumably produce super pork.

The gingerbread man

Tauntaun, but it has to be served lukewarm.

[–] qjkxbmwvz@startrek.website 2 points 3 hours ago

But I thought they smelled bad on the outside?

The animal at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe that wants to be eaten.

[–] callyral@pawb.social 6 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

Mooshroom is the only one I can think of right know, I think their meat would taste like standard cow meat but embedded with mushroom flavor or something like that.

Oh! Also could SCP-999 taste good? It's like a blob of orange jello from what I recall. I wouldn't want to eat it but it would probably taste good.

[–] wattanao@fedia.io 1 points 6 hours ago

iirc 999 smells like peanut butter, so it might taste like it too. Eating it might be hard though, I think it's one of those hard to kill types.

Pulled Winnie the Pooh.

It's honey marinated and fat.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Eating bear is how you get brain worms tho

[–] classic@fedia.io 5 points 8 hours ago

Chocobos are just large chickens, so...

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

you know you can just eat ostriches right? It was a meme in the 90s to open ostrich farms, they might have all closed by now though.

So you know in the Monster Hunter games where you eat a big ol' feast before a hunt?

I don't know which monster they cook up, but whichever it is, is probably incredibly delicious.

[–] persona_non_gravitas@piefed.social 10 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Ameglian Major Cow, must have been created for flavor as well.

[–] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 7 points 8 hours ago

Waiter: Would you all like to see the menu? Or would you care to meet the main dish of the day?

Arthur: Meet?

Trillian: What is it?

Waiter: It's an Ameglian Major Cow. I'll bring him over.

Zaphod: Ok, we'll meet the meat. that's cool. [a large Pig-like creature is wheeled in on a trolley]

Dish of the Day: Bweeeh... [clears throat] Good evening, Madam and Gentlemen. I am the main Dish of the Day. May I interest you in parts of my body? [Arthur and Trillian go "Huh?"]

Ford: Oh, well.

Dish of the Day: Something off my shoulder, perhaps, brazed in a little White Wine sauce?

Arthur: Your shoulder?

Dish of the Day: Well, naturally mine, sir. Nobody else's is mine to offer. [clears throat] The, uh, rump is very good, sir. I have been exercising and eating plenty of grain so there's a lot of good meat there. [moos] Or a casserole of me, perhaps?

Trillian: You mean this animal actually wants us to eat it?

Ford: Me, I don't mean anything.

[–] Denjin@feddit.uk 1 points 5 hours ago

Brisket of that fiery red bull thing in Last Unicorn. With BBQ sauce.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Have you eaten reptiles? Especially big ones? Gator is pretty much kinda fishy greasy chicken. I don't think dragon would be all that tasty. Like tough chicken. Though maybe it's more like emu and kinda beefy...

I've talked myself around to trying it.

I bet that Golden Goose tastes fucking awesome.

I mean. Goose is delicious, so I bet the mythical goose is mythically delicious.

Are there any fairy tale ducks? I'd chow down on some fantastic duck too.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Beholder maybe? Its a floating meatball with eyes and a mouth, that doesn't touch the ground, bet its pretty tender

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

I've heard seal eyeballs are pretty good. Maybe it'd be like that but family-sized.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 7 hours ago

Im a bit hesitant to eat the eyes off the stalks (mmm, tastes like disintegration), but the big one is fair game

[–] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 3 points 8 hours ago

I bet roasted dwarf is delicious.

This is the correct answer. Even Pizza the Hutt seems to agree.

Blob monsters, like the gelatinous cube sort not the pulsating mutation of animal flesh sort, seem tasty, like caustic jello. Just use some acid neutralizer and mmm mmm zingy delicious.
