Squab is the meat from a young domestic pigeon; formerly adult birds from several species were called by the same name. Squab for the table are roughly a month old; they have reached adult size but have not yet flown. Consumed throughout much of recorded history, squab is not usually a staple food where it is a part of modern cuisine, and it may be considered peculiar or exotic. | Squab is the meat from a young domestic pigeon; formerly adult birds from several species were called by the same name.

Pigeon is commonly shot as a game bird. Because there is relatively little meat on a pigeon, and what meat there is has a very strong, almost liver-like flavour, pigeon meat is better suited to flavouring sauces being the main substance of a dish. | Pigeon is commonly shot as a game bird.
