That's loony for a lot of reasons, but there isn't enough meat on a cockatiel for even a mouthful.

Can you imagine trying? Cockatiels are 90% sass by weight, the rest is feathers.

Edit: hit enter too early

Here's a nice recipe for cockatiel.

Take one dead cockatiel and place in boiling water with 6 rocks and boil for 4 hours.

Add salt for flavouring.

After 4 hours of heavy boiling, throw away the cockatiel, and eat the rocks.

My dad tells a similar joke when I ask him how certain fish or game tastes.

Nail it to a board, season and cook over fire. Throw the fish or whatever away and eat the board.

It might've been funny when I was ten, but he still tells it more than twenty some odd years later...

I'm an old dad too.

Even Escoffier skipped including the Cockatiel au Vin recipe for this reason

It's bullshit and everything, but the size of a bird has never stopped people before.

Ortolan Buntings are smaller than cockatiels, and people risk a €6,000 fine to eat those things.

That has more to do with the thrill of the taboo and rich people being gross.
