My tits also occasionally destroy the brains of small critters

Ah yes, that particular internet myth. It is not true, because it would be basically impossible for them to do this. Usually it is about them eating the brains of their own species. But this variant of the myth is also funny (although still untrue).
Great tits eat plenty of insects though, I don't know why this particular myth has gained so much traction, do people think these birds are vegetarians?
I can confirm, I'm a mammal who's occasionally been attacked by great tits
It makes me wonder whether they always think of the brains as food that they simply don’t like, or they just snap when they’re starving.
