Depends on what they h...Do they taste that bad?...<br /><br />Depends on what they have been eating. A Canada Goose that lived on a golf course and ate pesticide laden grass, tastes different from one that migrates and stopped on farm fields.<br /><br />Goose hunting is quite popular (where legal).<br /><br />I suspect PC and local sensibilities had more to do with it. I suspect that the New York bureaucrats probably had prejudices against "hunting" and game meat, where the Pennsylvanian ones did not. Could also be a rural vs. urban thing.Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-27265211154387043122011-06-19T10:48:12.741+01:002011-06-19T10:48:12.741+01:00I think the reason nobody wants them has little to...I think the reason nobody wants them has little to do with their taste, but everything to do with the time and effort plucking and cleaning them.Budvarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01411709142357622721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-75518073030138121262011-06-19T05:15:49.670+01:002011-06-19T05:15:49.670+01:00"Yep good old Red Tape stopping NYC homeless ...<i>"Yep good old Red Tape stopping NYC homeless getting a meal"</i> <br /><br />Ahhh, those compassionate liberals!<br /><br /><i>"Are you kidding? goose is delicious,rich and tasty..."</i> <br /><br />Oh, indeed!

The magistrate asked what happened...<br /><br />Well your Worship, said the defendant, it was a tragic accident. I was out shooting pigeons and the poor eagle flew in front of my gun just as I fired. There was nothing I could do. The bird was dead, and rather than waste it, I took it home and ate it.<br /><br />The Magistrate said... This Court believes your story and gives you a conditional discharge. But just out of interest, what did it taste like?<br /><br />Well your Worship, it was rather like Swan...<br /><br />Goose is delicious, if you know how to cook it, by the way.RABnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-11021104593499087952011-06-18T13:57:23.000+01:002011-06-18T13:57:23.000+01:00"Do they taste that bad?"
