That is completely untrue.  Tastes like chicken is more of a description of the cooking method's flavor than the meat's taste.  The example I give is frog legs.  If you have ever had fried frog's legs, you will agree that they taste a lot like chicken.  However, you are equating the breading and grease from the fryer with the taste of the breading grase of fried chicken more than the meat itself.
