Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I do not prefer days off in hospital to work, which is kinda sad. I have a hospital phobia that's threatening to be born, and I can't avoid the damned things.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That list of acquired tastes is weird. Talk about subjective.
It's an eyebrow-raiser. Some of those have to do with losing your bitter tastebuds as you age.

What does snake taste like? I always imagine it as something like fish. I also never thought much about the taste of horse, just that I prefer animals that get less exercise.
Chicken? Actually, I think I did hear that it does from a friend who lived in Indonesia. But that could have been dog.

Calamari and octopus are acquired tastes?
I don't have an issue with how calamari and octopus taste. It's all texture. It could taste like manna from heaven and I'd be wondering why god wanted me to gag this way.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I always thought that reptile was the archetypal "tastes like chicken" animal.

What she said. Rubbery and food should not go together.

No one's ever going to get me to put something that had tentacles into my mouth.

Unless they are nummy cephalopod!
But I've found the texture of calamari can really vary depending on how it's prepared....

Mmmm. Octopus is good. I read in my Bittman that you can't do much in the kitchen to affect whether it is tough or tender, that it totally depends on the meat. But I'm not sure how fancy restaurants get such tender octopus, unless it has more to do with where it comes from.
