I read that house sparrows are OK to kill. I never tried to eat them.

Um.. just a question for you...
Do you even know what the Depression was??
People were starving...
Would you rather starve and see your kids die or eat a bird??
Think about it for a minute....

It depends on which sparrow you are talking about. The sparrows mostly being referred to in this thread are the House Sparrows (Passer domesticus), which are non-native and invasive. They are not illegal to kill. In fact, someday you may see a bounty (again) on these destructive birds here in the US. Several countries have bounties in place now or historically on them.

I remember my mother many years ago stir fried them with ginger, garlic and soy sauce.
