If you have had duck, chicken, goose, and pheasant you have already have had some dinosaur!
With the wide variety of dinosaurs they would have had even more vsriety than we have with modern birds. Just like with the wide varety of fish and mammals.
I feel like turkey, cornish hen, and maybe quail are more common as food than pheasant and goose. At least in the US. If you're European maybe you put live blackbirds inside pies or something, I dunno, but I guess that's technically a dino meal too.
LIVE BLACKBIRDS???
Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened the birds began to sing,
Oh wasn't that a dainty dish to set before the king?
The king was in his counting house counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!
Moral of the story, don't be a minor character in an 18th century nursery rhyme.
more like don't be a poor person in an 18th century nursery rhyme.
For entertainment purposes. The birds would fly out when the dish was uncovered.
I've always wondered about the blackbird pie thing. How did they get the birds into the pie? How many escaped during the pie-ing process? Were there originally a lot more than four-and-twenty? If they shit on any half-prepared food during the escape, was it thrown out or served to the cheap seats?
As an American duck seems more available than goose. I've seen turduckens, I've never seen a Goosiken
This is the correct answer.
