Swans, however, are 'royal birds' simply because only the Royal Family had the right to eat them. The British Royal Family
??? to be precise, one Swan was offered once a year to the Royal family, I very much doubt this is practiced these days...So to state the Royal family eat swans is a bit stupid.
Anyone got a good rabbit recipe?
You cant beat rabbit stew, I find it a bit tough if its not braised for a long time, its actually having a bit of a revival in the UK, it was popular after WWII because meat was in short supply but it fell out of favour and was seen as a poor mans meat when things got better..Now its seen as sustainable and healthy..
farm-bred rabbit
Why would anyone want that? I prefer wild rabbit that has had a happy and organic life, not some animal who was raised in a controlled environment..
