I guess that’s also why people started having turkey for big family gatherings even through chicken tastes better.
Now a chicken is perfectly adequate for a family of four, or even six depending on the trimmings.
I don’t necessarily want them bigger. I want them to have 12 legs and wings so there’s more of the good parts.
Took a long time to pokevolve.

I’m happy to eat meat if it tastes good. They are animals after all.
sensory pleasure doesn’t justify unnecesary pain and death
it does if its pain and death of animals
Non-human animals share all the traits you value in humans to not inflict pain and death on them. Ability to feel pain, have future goals and desires, build social bonds etc. Choosing to hurt them purely because they’re animals is arbitrary. Would you be fine with someone hurting and then killing and eating someone’s dog just because it falls into your two criteria? Tastes good and causes death and pain to an animal.
I dont want to inflict pain on humans specifically because they are humans. Your desire to not hurt these animals is just as arbitrary as my indifference to their suffering.
My desire to not hurt animals isn’t because they’re animals. Discriminating against non-human animals is just an arbitrary class like discrimimating on race, intelligence, or sexuality etc. It’s more reasonable to choose morally relevant principles like whether or not we should inflict suffering, death, or mass breed their species and propetually deny them of freedom because they can feel pain, they want to live, and they want to be free. There’s no trait that is specifically for humans and not for non-human animals and thus its arbitrary.
Everyone in Iceland just starved to death.
No, we want to eat the hormone infused turkey chicken hybrid!
How else we can grow Manboob?
Turducken would like a word.
Oh thanks.
The explanation behind this is actually pretty disturbing. Due to the growth hormones we feed chickens in America, the chickens become fully grown much earlier than usual. It’s like the equivalent of becoming a fully grown adult by the time you are the age of five, but you still have the mental capacity of a five year old.
I’ve raised Cornish crosses and fed them normal, quality feed without any hormones: they ended up looking just like the chicken on the right at about 8 weeks old.
They’ve been selectively bred over the decades to grow as fast as possible, as big as possible, docile, and stupid.
