Wild goose is okay if you aren’t expecting fowl. It tasted more like beef to me. Mr. Mercat calls our ubiquitous wild geese “cows with wings.” I have a great memory of this wild goose. I’m a retired lawyer and years ago was talking with a man who said he always went out Christmas eve and shot geese. I asked him for one. Our secretary who was Jewish had volunteered to work Christmas eve, called me with a shaky voice, saying, “there’s a dead goose out in the hall.” I had totally forgotten my request. It was there sure enough, complete with head and guts. LOL She thought is was some sort of warning like in the Godfather.
That’s funny.
I really don’t remember the wild goose; but the first wild duck I had was great.
