DO NOT READ IF SENSITIVE TOWARDS ANY MYTHOLOGY. People may speak of eating your favorite beings, please be prepared for such.

To start off, While I am a pescatarian, I think biblical angels would be delicious fried / grilled, specifically the ones who aren’t high enough to be abstract shapes, as I do not think I can stomach a wheel.

    I loved swordfish steak the one time I had it, so I’d bet that Scylla, Charybdis, or the Kraken would be quite good.

    Oh, also The Kraken is quite tasty.

    A bite of the Ouroboros, why should the serpent be the only one that gets a taste of itself?

    Flying spaghetti monster feels quite obvious

    Beyond that I’m vegan so I’d eat snacks off Aphrodite’s belly, therefore snacking upon Aphrodite

    I bet Jörmungandr the world-serpent, who gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil-tree, destined to kill and be killed by Thor, tastes like chicken.

    Didn’t Zeus go around appearing as things like swans? Is swan like goose? Christmas Zeus, with a bonus of all that fat to fry potatoes in is my choice. Just gotta catch him in swan form.

      The problem with ingesting Zeus is that I’d have a good chance (nearly 100% based on my Greek mythology knowledge) I’d end up being pregnant and incurring Hera’s wrath, or being whisked to Olympus as his winebearer… or both!

    I would most prefer the Tyrant (the judeo-muslim-Christian God) because nothing tastes better than vindictive spite.

    Gonna eat all the Wuxia pills.

    Heavenly Pearl pill? Nom. Nine Color White Lotus pill? Nom. Holy Flame pill? Nom. You refine it, I dine it.

    Once I eat all the dānyào Mike ‘n’ Ikes I’ll either leave the room a Dragon Warrior or I’ll meet Master Oogway in the spirit realm. Maybe he can give me advice on the Daoist approach on debugging C++ multithreading.

    If my soul evaporates it’ll be a bummer tho

    I’d say one of those immortality peaches from Chinese myth. Probably one of the eternal youth ones that blooms every six thousand years.

    I’d say Idun’s apples for the immortality, but those aren’t a deity/being, so I guess Idun? Maybe that works too

    I’m not sensitive to mythology. Couldn’t care less about any of them, 100% atheist. But… are y’all meat eaters okay?Deaming what sentient, and often benevolent kind creatures would taste like is just wild.

    While I am a pescatarian, I think biblical angels would be delicious fried

    You won’t eat beef, but a literal messenger of the god would be fair game? I know this is a silly hypothetical, but I don’t understand these metrics at all. 😂

      It’s called “mortal comradeship”, thats why the birds, bees, and squirls sit with me during lunch.

      I’ve been off gluten for a while now for medical reasons and god damn this a thousand times. I would kill for some decent spaghetti.

      All the gluten free ones are kinda shit.

          Chickpeas are legumes and legumes don’t have gluten. Although you should still check products because there might be crosd contam or added wheat in some products.

          But yeah probably chickpea spaghetti can be found gluten free. I’ll put it on the “to try” list, but I’m not too hopeful. I’ve tried a whole bunch and without that gluten in there, just can’t get the consistency right enough for it to please me.

          So I just got a rice cooker.

              Huh maybe it might be okay then because the ones I’ve been using have had longer cook times and even when I played around with them, never got them nice.

              Ty for the tips.

        I would imagine the FSM to be composed of the platonic ideal of gluten rather than physical gluten, though I’m not sure if that would be more irritating or less. I’d consult a GI and maybe a metaphysician.

          Metaphysician here. The platonic ideal of gluten will induce the platonic ideal of diarrhea. Honestly I’m not going to call that a good trade, but that’s an exercise for the reader.
