I am not even sure whether we can buy pigeon in Australia but in the UK they love eating it, apparently. :)

I watch the British Masterchef programs and some of the meat they cook with I have never tasted or seen sold here.

sounds revolting I was told by someone who kept pigeons you could only eat 2 per year.

they eat a lot of offal in England waste not want not.. you dont watch free to air...[snob] but on sbs there is a show on Victorian London Slums and people who would have had ancestors living in the slums of London 150 years ago have been sent back in time.....and its terrible...no holds barred its all there... and when I think about it thats probably how and where my ancestors lived .. I am a born cockney they have just told us how the pearly Kings and Queens came about...they still have them...its quite an honor I believe..

pigs trotters were big Nef..

Yes, the Lifestyle Channel on Foxtel shows a lot of that sort of thing and I do watch then. Currently there is a new one called "Back in Time for the Corner Shop". They started with the Victorian era, next is the 20s, then 30s, and so forth.

Have a look at the meat they use and vegetables, some I have never heard of. ;D

Gone are the days when the English (Scottish and Irish) served "stodge" or meat and 3 veg!
