Agreed. They're rats with wings, barely a step above pigeons. I'd have to be starving to try it, but... Google-fu, on call.

Eh pigeons are no different than doves which I really don't like to eat either. It's like eating your pet.
Crows however are, in my thinking, more like buzzards, and taking that thought process further, they eat rotting animals, you kill them and then eat them and so then you are eating rotting animals which is :vom:
Khara, I hope you never think about lobsters, crabs, or flounder that way...
...Whoops.

Nope, strangely enough, even knowing they are scavengers my brain allows me to just ignore the ocean dropping eaters.... YAY BRAIN!!! Because I love lobster and crab and all those lovely little crawly creatures that taste so delicious in drawn butter... mmmmmmm
Well I don't eat flounder unless it's my only choice, it is not one of my favorite fish.

SCIENCE
:wink:
Sounds like the meat is...PUNGENT. That site recommends you soak the shit out of the meat before you even begin to use the recipe.
That's a good indication right there on how it will taste...

Actually, pigeon can be quite good. If you've ever enjoyed an entree of "rock dove" at a good restaurant, then you agree.
Crows, however, are predator birds. Predator birds are about the most disgusting-tasting warm-blooded creature you can eat.

Oh I never meant pigeon didn't taste good or dove for that matter, they're just so (I'm a girl dammit) cute.
I forced myself to get over the "don't eat the cute ones" instinct.
Had to, in fact. I think pigs are goddamn cute, so if I hadn't been able to come to terms with it I probably would have starved.
ECH,

something to add to the anecdote repertoire though right?

I guess so. Some things just aren't worth having the experience. For me, eating predator bird would rank right up there with doing ketamine on the list of things I'm not even glad I did once.
I'd eat it.
I'll try anything (food/animal) once
Suggestions:
Marinate.
Deep Fry.
Lots of Hot Sauce.
In other words, make it taste like anything other than what it tastes like.
You could always try that famous southern cedar board carp recipe.
Put the dressed bird on the board, roast, throw away the bird and eat the board because it will taste better. :lulz:

I hope the apocalypse doesn't accidentally the entire internet.
How else will I learn the proper way to harvest and prepare kudzu, or which antifreeze is safe to drink?

You joke but think of the fortune that could be made if you could just get people to eat it. It's actually supposed to be quite tasty. My mom always said it was poisonous so I never thought otherwise till a year or so ago and I saw some weird backwoods pbs show and the chick on there made a quiche with kudzu.
I'm telling you were are missing out on a golden opportunity, that shit is everywhere south of the mason dixon line!!!
Just cuz I'm jokng doesn't mean I'm not serious.
Kudzu fucking vending machines, yo.
Also a concern with crow meat: as scavengers, they bioaccumulate pretty much every nasty thing ever to be found in the bodies of other animals.
Now, I'm not saying that eating some crow will turn all of your body's cells into cancerous cells and give you mutant superpowers, but, y'know. Something to keep in mind.

If you make sure you are exposed to gamma rays or fall into a vat of toxic chemicals afterwards wouldn't that counteract any negative exposure.
In a sad twist of fate, my friend who obtained the crows managed to sell them as art. Shame, I was having mad/possibly ingenious ideas to make it not taste like awful. Also was looking forward to obtaining the powers of a crow.

Lots of the Gypsys up this way are fond of a Rook Pie. But that's thew only Corvid I've seen being eaten.
Raptors are supposed to taste like shit though. The most prized delicacy I ever heard the Dids
talk about, was Badger Hams. That's pretty universally supposed to be good.
Didikois. Up in your Hedgerows. Eating your wildlife.
