Ever taste an Hombre?
That’s how I read it at first…
horse meat is illegal? ive eaten horse meat before.
What does it taste like? I imagine it’s tough as hell and tastes like a bland, overcooked pork chop, but with a mild hay smell.
it was really tough, i ate it once because my grandfather believed it helps with people with low iron.
“So do beets and iron pills, grandpa.”
“Ain’t the same thing, pussy…”
Tesco horse meat scandal
Didn’t Ikea also have one a while back?
Iirc, It was a national problem. Not just Tesco.
Nobody in the supply chain was being overly cautious about what their suppliers were providing them. Resulting in horse meat being found in loads of places.
Turns out it was a European problem.

Back when it happened, I didn’t really follow the news properly and thought it was only a German thing.
As someone who’s been to Kazakhstan 25 years ago, you’re not missing much.
What did it taste like? I’m imagining that it tastes a lot like deer
Pretty much. I had really good horse meat sashimi in Japan and it tasted pretty much identical to elk or deer. It was tasty, but not something I’d feel like going out of my way for.
Yeah it’s not far off deer or springbok or kudu or other types of game. Very sinewy. I prefer the others a bit over horse though. Horse tastes a bit more “dirty” to me.
The fun thing is, you’ve probably already eaten horse.
A horse is a horse of course of course and no one should eat a horse of course unless of course the horse is the main dinner course

Yayy, lasagna!
Fun fact, here around it is quite common to eat horse meat.
I just ate it, minutes ago. Ground horse meat, mixed with mustard and capers.
🇮🇹
Oh, I did not know it was also common in Italy. I knew about donkey meat in salami. Good to know!
Also Mexico. Tacos de caballo are very common here in Baja California.
We eat donkey in many different ways, not just salame. Same for horse meat.
Are you from Verona by any chance?
Nope
That’ll go great with a horseburger, and a horse coke to wash it all down.
Horse Pepsi okay?
Much as I’d like things to be otherwise, some people needs to be locked up for the sake of public safety. This is one of those people.
There’s an entire YouTube video of him doing this.
Killian is a treasure.
I can only recommend looking up Killian Experience on YouTube.

Horse meat is pretty tasty.
I don’t think I’ve (knowingly) eaten it as anything but cold smoked cold cuts. Those are damn good but so is probably any meat
I heard from my dad that back in the day some butchers used to pass it off as some cuts of beef. It’s not like they couldn’t sell horse meat, since it’s legal (there’s some health requirements) but beef is supposed to be more tender and tasty, thus more expensive.
It’s just not a particularly desired type of meat, so you don’t see it often at butchers nowadays.
Horse meat is consumed regularly in some Central-Asian countries. From what I’ve heard, it’s lean as hell, moreso than lamb.
That’s interesting because in fact the only times I had it was as a spread, many many years ago. It’s got this slightly gamey taste, great on toast.
Is horse meat illegal? Why?
In the US at least it’s sort of a legal grey area
We of course have our usual patchwork of different local and state laws, and I believe it is outright banned in some parts of the country
But overall, federally, I believe it’s more of an issue that there’s so little demand for it that no slaughterhouse for horses has bothered to open and go through the necessary USDA inspections and such to process horses for human consumption.
I believe, if you really wanted to, you could go slaughter a horse yourself and feed it to your friends and family and be totally in the clear, but if you try to sell that horse meat anywhere you’d have the USDA beating down your door (not a lawyer, don’t go feeding your friends horse based on my understanding of the issue)
As for the cultural reasons that Americans don’t want to eat horses and why it is outright banned in some parts of the country, I can’t really comment on that. I’d eat a horse and wouldn’t feel the least bit bad about it.
In the US it’s seen as taboo to eat animals that provide labor or companionship to humans, it’s almost like a betrayal. This includes horses, donkeys, dogs and cats.
It used to be found in a lot of cheap canned dog food, but now most dogs eat better than I did as a kid.
The Tongans around here used to eat l, and probably still do, eat horse. I was working graveyard with a guy and he offered some of his food. Turns out it was a horse meat dish cooked in milk to tenderize it. It was sweeter then beef, wasn’t bad, but wasn’t great either. At least cooked like that.
Not sure. In Begium I’ve seen butcher shops that specialise in horse meat and in Korea there are restaurants where horse meat is served.
I’ve had horse meat in Italy. Nice with polenta.
Yeah, I live in Korea and bring horse jerky back to the US as gifts. Don’t think customs would like finding it though.
For the Cowboys it’s like eating a pet, which is understandable.
Legaln’t chips
“And since only very few if any of our customers have ever actually tasted horse, they’ll never think to question the shit we’re feeding them. It’s perfect.”
I had these. They were pretty gnarly. There are two other flavors, maggot cheese and puffer fish I think. None of them made me think I was missing out by not eating the real thing.
They should include endangered animal flavors and bald eagle.
I’ve never had maggot cheese, but both horse and puffer fish are pretty good.
Not good enough to go out of your way to eat them, but if you’re already in an area that serves them, they’re worth trying.
