I wonder what a headcrab tastes like.

[Axeldeath]

Black pudding - Dried pig blood made into a sausage.

 

Yet my friend will swear by it.

[Ray]

All this talk about headcrabs, bullsquids, spiders, dried pig blood, Sure is making me hungry

[scott155]

Mmm... bullcalamari...

[Jack Noir]

I guess it depends what kind of chemicals they're made of.

 

The blood of earth mammals tastes and smells like metal, because of its iron content.

 

I was never allowed to take chemistry in school, so I can't think of what could be in a headcrab's blood that might explain the colour. Maybe sulfur?

 

Sulfur smells like rotten eggs, or old piss. The blood usually gets drained from an animal before it's butchered, but yeah... I can't imagine that the meat is going to taste very nice to a human.

[Jek Jek Roo]

I bet it tastes like octopus. At least like chicken xD

Well, bug blood it yellow, so maybe it tastes like bug.

So what do you think would go good with cooked headcrab, any spices?....not that I'm thinking of trying or anything..

We could make a headcrab burger(very old joke ik). or make it how they do with real crabs. Headcrab lags any one

Oh nice. I love headcrab burgers.

[Chuckthe2nd]

Stuffed Headcrabs. They're the perfect shape for it.

If anything, Basil and fava beans.

[HLPrincess]

Like dead caterpillars (If no one mentioned it before...)

[Tom Servo]

crab. chicken. rabbit. or, for some reason i always though they might taste like potato chips, thats probably because of the yellow blood.

[BTGBullseye]

They taste like a cross between scorpion and cat, with just a hint of calamari.

[Numb.erz94]

headcrab blood taste like hot coco.

*facedesk*

 

 

Classic

[Cyber]

I figured they taste like meatloaf badly prepared with no sauce because it sort of looks like a roast headcrab and how I imagine they would smell.

[Tadrix]

My bet would be the taste of baked cockroaches. Some people say they are yummy (never tried myself).

[Tom Servo]

actually guys, we wouldn't share the same DNA code, so we wouldn't be able to eat them anyway.

[DuIstalri]

Why would a different DNA code mean we wouldn't be able to eat them? We have a different number of genes and chromosomes to every other living thing on earth. I suppose alien nature could make them poisonous, and they could possibly have a different DNA system (I don't know triple helix or something), or maybe RNA, but that doesn't inherently make them inedible does it? So long as we can break them down for protein or whatever, I don't see the problem...
