I probably already have and just didn't know it. I did eat cafeteria food when I was in school. We always joked that the "Salisbury Steak" was horse meat.

Absolutely. I've often wondered where I could get it.

Sure. As long as it's not my horse. (Though I've known a couple of ponies that certainly had it coming...)

Not only would, but have, it's quite tasty.

It's not legal to sell in the US if I remember right though, so you'll have to go to Canada or Europe or something.

There are several horses at the barn where we board our flea-bitten varmint that deserve to be stewed.

Yes; I would try dolphin if you give me a chance.

Quick question:

  • Cow = Beef

  • Deer = Vension

  • Horse = ???

COngress has removed the ban on funding FDA Horse meat inspections.

I probably would not. Dolphin are meat eaters. I'm not a fan of eating other meat eaters, taste bad. That, and they tend to concentrate pollutants- dolphins tend to be quite high in mercury.

But I have no problem if you want to eat it.

other countried eat cats and dogs. Horses are vegitarians, so some of the meat probably tastes quite good.

Good point. I was just being a jack ass. Tuna are meat eaters and they taste great but are not mammals...

Seems to be a lot of outrage about it. It doesn't bother me.

People tend to get butthurt over "majestic" or "cute" animals, but don't give two E36 M3s about ugly ones.

They called it Paardenvlees in Belgium, but that just means Horse Meat in Dutch.

Sure, I bet it's pretty lean.... i'd guess along the lines of buffalo... or maybe closer to deer.

They say pigs make great companions, are really smart, loyal, etc. but nobody seems to be passing on bacon because of it.

I can also look at a young calf and lick my lips while thinking....mmmmmmm...veal.....

I can buy kangaroo meat at our local butcher. Granted, it's not a local kangaroo.

According to Esquire -

People in America expect it to taste like game meat, like buffalo or moose, but it tastes just like sweet filet mignon. Kangaroo is very lean; there's no fat on it at all.
