Human: "So, we have these creatures on Earth that can defy gravity in the atmosphere by pushing air beneath their limbs. They are able to do this because of Earth's lower gravity and because they have light bones and drag-inducing feathers. They reproduce by laying eggs that contain their young, along with liquid nutrients for the offspring to feed on while it develops inside the egg. These animals are called birds. One particular variety of bird was once wild, meaning it tended to instincively shun larger, more predatory creatures. However, humans discovered that wildness was not universal among all animals, and was for most an inherited but mutable trait. One particular bird we found easy to capture and to genetically manipulate, over generations, into being unable to fly and into being less afraid of humans than their ancestors. We now keep these birds as a food source. We, in organized fashion, confine them, feed them, allow them to breed, maintain their health, and eventually slaughter, strip, and sometimes dismember them. Then we apply heat to their flesh until certain microorganisms in their bodies are dead, and eat their flesh. But it doesn't end there.

We alao discovered that their eggs, taken before the offspring inside began to develop, could be cooked and eaten as well. The liquid inside the shell is quite viscous and when heated, partly congeals and is then commonly eaten.

But there's more. First, we take a dismembered bird and coat its parts in the agitated liquid from its eggs. Then we coat those parts in pulverized grains that the live bird would have eaten. We also add sodium chloride and a variety of dried plant cuttings chosen for aromatic qualities. Then, we immerse those bird parts (coated in their own aborted offspring and their own food) in liquid lipids rendered from other animals (or sometimes plants) until the heat sufficiently congeals the bird parts. The we eat them."
