Well, when Rob and I do a goose, and part it out carefully we can squeeze 6 people out of one and have a carcass for rendering into 
stock. Certain parts when roasted are more useable as stock makings rather than eating like the wings, both double wing sections don't 
have much in the way of meat but are great for stock. The legs themselves are about the same amount of meat as a chicken, and the 
thighs are a bit skinny also. But then again, a goose whole for 6 people, roasted nicely would be great looking and very opulent feeling. 
Unfortunately, unless you are going to raise them, or hit up the local butchers wholesaler and buy a serious large quantity of them they 
may prove to be a bit more expensive than you are willing to pay.
