Dinosaurs -> chickens

Chickens -> pulverized chicken paste

Pulverized chicken paste -> dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets

@roguetrick @TheSlad I occasionally talk to groups kids or sometimes adults about dinosaurs. A lot of them are still surprised to learn that all birds actually are dinosaurs (descendants from the only lineage(s) that managed to survive the K-Pg extinction event).
Surprisingly (or perhaps not surprisingly) people’re often resistant to the idea that birds are dinosaurs, i.e. that not all dinosaurs died out. The fact that many were feathered is helping shift the paradigm
