Do Tau taste like chicken?"
Yes, duh.
Of course, but so does the rest of the biomass.
No. . . but Eldar taste like Turkey! some light meat some dark meat . . .
I would not know, my 'nids are vegetarian, they only eat Orks
No, they taste like lamb.

Having voted, I would like to say that once, a long time ago, a young Dracon in my kabal once tried to dine on a gaunt. His whole schtick was trying of all the delicacies the 'verse had to offer. Before going stark raving mad, he blabbed something about 'nids tasting like something out of a garbage disposal that had been sitting for three weeks.

I thought it was pretty clear that Kroot taste like chicken (duh), though I would guess that Tau taste like flounder or cod or some other generic fish meats. Don't call 'em "fish faces" for nothing!

I voted for Eldar tasting like turkey, by the by

Eldar ar strong, thin, sinewy, and probably have all the texture and flavor of an overcooked Joshua tree.

Tau are evolved from little blue-skinned herd grazers. I say they taste like beef or lamb. Tallarns are fond of Tau shawarma whenever the commissar's not looking.

Humans taste like pork...or, uh, so I've heard.

Lobster are the cockroaches of the sea. They are delicious. Nids are the roaches of the milky way. Draw your own conclusions.

So are the 'Nids going to end up nibbling on each other?


I dunno... I imagined the sept guarding the Perdus rift would wear the same black armour as Ulthwe eldar. Maybe being in close proximity to the warp makes you emo.

They already do. There are accounts of Nid fleets fighting one another to see which one had the best bio-organisms. The Tyranid as a whole win because in the end they get the strongest "models" and all the biomass is absorbed.

Tau have hooves, and therefore taste just like cow, I would know.

Yeah, but Tau don't have cloven hooves, right? Going by that they're more likely to taste like horse.


My first thought was that they taste like toothpaste, because of the color. When I realized it was totally irrational to think than a fictional alien creature tasted like toothpaste, I figured that if they are warm-blooded, they probably taste similar to other red meats.

Hmmm, guess my Tau taste like cheese then But seriously though I play an entirely mounted force and have lost several games. If you know what your doing the Tau can be easily beaten. By no means are the Tau cheesy. Except in an Apocalypse match. Can you say 10 Hammerheads
