      Anyone else ever wonder whether the dinosaurs were delicious?

          I suspect T-Rex (like carnivores in general) isn’t such a good choice if meat is your goal. Sauropods on the other hand? Tons and tons of meat from a single herbivore animal. You might even be able to use existing cattle feed.

            Well that’s true if you have a live animal producing your meat. Not sure that applies if the meat is lab grown though?

            At the point where we’re making lab-grown dinosaur meat, I suspect the cool factor is way more important than silly things like efficiency. T-Rex meat all the way babyyy

            i’d imagine they’d largely taste like wild turkey/alligator, since that’s basically what they were and how they lived.

            Not even all parts of a chicken taste the same.
