Squab is yummy, but eating the local rats-of-the-sky is akin eating a disesased animal with a chaser of d-con.

Squab are pigeons that have never flown, but it is what all young pigeons are called in the US. "Pigeons" are pigeons. The rest of the world has the stomach to call it what it is. BTW, whatever you call them, they are delicious.

Latest Silver Jews record refers to "chicken fried pigeon in a sonny james sauce". Wouldn't be the first time David was a taste maker!

the "Longacre Square Longhare." (a delicious dish from the pre-"Times" era.)

" POACH at your own risk!" I prefer my pigeons either deep-fried or grilled, thank you.
