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.

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 wish you best of luck in comprehending the dao of programming.

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.

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. πŸ˜‚

It's called "mortal comradeship", thats why the birds, bees, and squirls sit with me during lunch.

(this entire thread is humorous and I believe you are obtuse)

You know how you can tell someone is an atheist vegan?

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.

Spiced rum? Have to try sometimes.

Allah can turn things to ice, and thus would be mint flavored.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Allah choclates....🀀

Bro's gonna get to the great beyond and experience horrors beyond human comprehension for this one

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

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

Flying spaghetti monster feels quite obvious

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

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I bet Aphrodite would taste divine.

Would definitely stuff her

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

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

Stay Puft Marshmallow Man

Dionysus has gotta taste like wine.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

A nice Caribbean Faun curry sounds delicious.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

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

My issue is most are human. So id need to find one that is an animal. I cant do Jesus either cuz i cant eat gluten. Unless he is gluten free bread? idk

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

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!

Tiny Tim: Mom, look at the Christmas Zeus! It's almost as big as me!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago

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

I've been binging Hades 2 this week, so: Dionysus. Have you seen that package?!
