The Rich Chinese love it. The poor love to catch the pigeons and sell em for money. THey used to eat them at first but when they found out the pigeons were worth a ton more than just eating they sell em on the black market.

That said pigeon racing seems cool, we should breed them in the US and sell em to stupid rich people.

What does pigeon taste like? I'd say I'm asking for a friend, but I have no IRL friends so honestly I'm asking for me. My gambling debts mean I cant eat like a normal human being beyond the first few days after payday

They probably taste bad. If they tasted good they wouldn't be everywhere.

E: I'm sorry you have no friends Kuato. I'll be your e-friend if you need one.

Would you be able to give any insight as to which pigeon type is the best for racing?
