Doesn’t snake taste like chicken?

Ergo, ‘gator tastes like chicken. QED.

Your logic fails on two points:
1. Snake does not taste like chicken, it tastes like snake, as I already said.
2. A ‘gator is not a snake.

Your points 1 and 2 are false in my experience (though admittedly ‘gator does taste more like snake than it does chicken). The syllogism fails.
