Peacock is delicious......

Irva, a friend of my mothers, used to raise them and if they got too old
to sell, she would not hesitate to eat them. Mom used to get free birds
for helping her do processing. I was pretty little, (about 8 I think)
but I still remember it! Irva died from complications from Adult onset
diabetes when I was about 14, and her husband took every single bird she
had out in the yard to the local shelter to be put to sleep.

All the cats and her two dogs too. <sigh>
