I was in Oklahoma (shush I'm taking a break from lugging things up and downstairs) in basic training. You were always hungry in basic training. The amount of physical exertion and the amount of times you ate did not equate.
Didn't matter what they served, you were hungry enough to eat it.
Anyway I stumbled into the mess one afternoon, as hungry as all hell and started eating what they told me was chicken.
After devouring half of what I had, I realized the bone formation was really weird. Really weird! for a chicken.
Turned out to be rabbit.
It did taste like chicken and seeing how ravenous I was, it was delicious.
Can't say I am a fair judge or anything seeing how hungry I was, but if I didn't have chicken to munch on, I wouldn't hate rabbit in a pinch.
No idea why they tried to disguise it as chicken, but they did.
And really the meat is little different.
