Question about eating horse meat.
So it would seem that many people in Europe unknowingly have been eating horse meat.
They did not know they were eating it. It was in many popular meat sauces, meatballs etc...
The key word here is POPULAR. People were eating it, and liking it. Coming back and buying more of it.
I'm sure some people evern made comments such as "dude, this meatball sandwich is awesome!".

So here's the question: If you found out the meat you have been eating (and liking) had been mixed with horse meat, would you then be open to eating horse meat or would you be disgusted and shy away from processed meats?

Re: Question about eating horse meat.
Horsemeat is popular here. It was never taboo. The only thing that could bother me is the false advertising but the fact that I ate horsemeat, I couldn't give a fuck less. Horsemeat is tasty, have been eating it since I was a little boy.

Re: Question about eating horse meat.
They only liked those products because they were easy to make because they are soo lazy all they wanted to do was warm up a Meatball in the microwave.

Not because they were actually good, or good for you. Not because it was Quality.


But because it was convenient.

Sure, I agree with that. But it still had to taste good or people would choose another brand.

I'm not saying anything is wrong with it. I'd try it. The thing is a lot of people would not consider eating horse, and this is becoming a big deal/big story.

Re: Question about eating horse meat.
The problem with Horesemeat is not that it tastes bad.

But that it is Tough because it is so lean and does not have enough marbling (fat) to be tender.


So they grind up the horsemeat with added fat.



And we all know that fat tastes good ;P



Horsemeat would make a bad hamburger by itself, but if you added a bunch of fat it would be ok.


They have to add fat to hamburger when they grind up beef too. So its no different.

Re: Question about eating horse meat.
I remember back in the 50's or so that many people were unwittingly eating horsemeat from various sources. The problem occurred when they would receive a certain type of vaccination which contained horse serum. I don't remember specifics but some people has allergic reactions and blood dyscrasias from previous exposure to horse antigens. Also, there are no federal statutes or quality standards for horsemeat so someone could slip some foul dead nag's meat into a burger with no FDA oversight. If it is happening let's get it out on the table and regulate it and enjoy a little horse. I've eaten bear, snake, grasshopper, ants, hedgehog, why not some lean red cayuse.

Package it as Mr. Ed meat.

This issue is that they mislead with the packaging.

Re: Question about eating horse meat.
Horse meat is very healthy, especially for those suffering from anemia. I heard stories from my parents how horse meat was used to cure anemia while they were kids. When she was just 7 years old, my mom suffered from extreme anemia, after she almost died from pneumonia, and she cured anemia with horse meat. I've heard similar stories from other older people as well. So horse meat is definitely not taboo where I live, but it's not eaten that often since horses are considered more as working livestock, than food.
