This is a joke I've heard before - at least, I hope it's a joke, but what if it's true? What if adrenaline tastes fantastic? Does it? We should know.
I'm increasingly starting to believe that the real difference between sentient, self-aware creatures like humans and other animals is that we have the ability to decide something is bad and then not do it, even though our biological drive is to do so.
I think I've read somewhere that e.g. hunters try to avoid stressing the animal before killing it, because adrenaline cortisol tastes bad. I could be wrong, though.
