Personally I think the grass types then just didn't survive decomposition restraint.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

True but if you have evidence of everything else but not that one thing, the working hypothesis is that that thing was not there.

Empty shelves at the supermarket for the most popular item shouldn’t be construed to have never existed just because less tasty items remain.

I have a grass compost and I can not tell it was grass after three years.

CO2 levels and temps were much higher during the Mesozoic and you had incredible plant life. Tree sized ferns and the like all the way into the high latitudes. Weirdly enough, not much grass since it evolved later than other plants.

I’ve always wondered how dinosaur might have tasted. I’m guessing some would have been very tough. Others, maybe like gator?

If it's popular, people have experienced it in the past.
Or we could just believe or not believe what evolutionary paleo-biologists say about grasses evolving towards the end of the Mesozoic instead of the beginning. I only included it as a curiosity not as a point of contention. I am more worried about the people who don't understand concentrations!

If weather/climate was a constant, would this dark humor be possible?

Chicken since they are dinosaurs.
A good question would be should we go down the road of Jurassic Park. When Crichton wrote it, the gene tech was non-existent. Now with CRISPR, the future is bright or dark depending on your POV.

a good cow will turn that grass into a cow patti in one day . . . same difference just a lot quicker

LOL Have you been? The monument that shows the snow depth is incredible.
Ironically enough, a warmer atmosphere can hold more h2o and hence, produce more snow.
