Any of y’all know what meat this is supposed to represent? Obviously some kind of limb meat but what animal and who eats it like this? I know it has Asian origins and looked it up on both TV Tropes and Emojipedia expecting it to be some manga thing that Westerners just lack context for, but all I learned is that it’s a distinct trope in Japanese culture as well, known as “ano niku” which translates as “that meat” because they also aren’t sure what it’s supposed to be.
It ain’t a beat-em-up if you can’t regain your health bar with meat you found in the trash traditional Bin-Roasted Beast, but it always bugged me that you couldn’t save the bone at hit people with it
Item: Roast Beast, +10 Health, and when you’re done you get a Bone Club (1d4 Bludgeon)
We actually did get an answer, combining a few responses: the basic shape was from poorly-prepared mutton served to soldiers in World War Two, and after spending a while as a cultural meme in Japan it then entered cartoon iconography via a 1960s/70s manga and anime called “Gyatoruzu” (aka “Gon the Stone Age Boy”) in which it was Dinosaur Meat! Awesome job, everybody, thanks
