Canon flavors for the xen aliens

[Atom]

I DEMAND to know.
Headcanons:
Headcrab: rubbery chicken
Antlion: Beef with dirt undertones, bit acid and hard but crunchy, more inner meat should be very soft.
Leeches: Very metal like, bland outside of the taste.
Antlion milk (filtered): Lightly sweet, watery consistency, with slightly sour aftertaste.
Antlion milk: (unfiltered) battery juice

Here is your lore

 

[DillonVentures]

what about vort, bullsquid, and houndeye

judging by the name alone i assume bullsquid kinda tastes like calamari, maybe mixed with a little bit of beef flavor
i also assume bullsquid kinda has a similar preparation to fugu since the toxic spit has to come from somewhere, and i doubt you can safely consume what ever the hell it is

A tier: Antlion. The two to three paragraph long descriptions of the Antlion Stew production by a certain Vortigaunt made it sound like better Crawfish.

B tier: Leeches, like slightly off shrimp.

B tier: Bullsquid, a gamier kinda calamari.

C tier: Headcrab, like meat flavored gum.

C tier: Vortigaunt, like slavery and cognitive-adjacent-cannibalism.

D tier: Barnacle, like eating rotten meat.

Never forget the vort meat incident of i24
