Why don't Americans eat pigeons?

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question.

Americans generally don't eat pigeons for the following reasons:

1. Historical and cultural factors: In the European immigrant community in the United States, pigeons are regarded as urban wild birds in gardens or parks. Like other wild birds, they are mainly ornamental objects, not food.

2. Health reasons: Pigeons may eat garbage or other unclean food when they are active in cities, so some people worry that pigeon meat is unsafe and unhealthy and may spread diseases.

3. Supply and demand: In the United States, pigeons are not a popular meat, nor are they the main food sources, so it is difficult to find pigeon meat in the market.

In a word, Americans don't eat pigeons mainly because of cultural tradition and market demand.

I hope my answer is helpful to you.
