Me and my friends ate a chicago park pigeon once...
Yes, it was a dare.
Yes it tasted fine. (Hot sauce ftw)
Yes it was full of little feather tips cuz we were all city teens who had never cleaned a bird.
Yes, I still have the slingshot.
I grew up next to a large dairy farm, and my buddy who lived / grew up there use to shoot pigeons off the silo all the time, and there was an old woman who lived in a mobile home on the farm that use to cook them up and eat them, and she claimed they were a delicacy. Of course they were corn fed so probably were tasty.

You had a bog witch? You should have offered her a giant's toe and asked for a blessing.

I have since had some store bought squab, and it is honestly alright. I find those super young chickens you can get (can't remember the pretentious french sounding name right now) to have less of that wild gamey taste, but they are both nice!
