Which means, of course, that the stuff passes unhindered inside the whole european/eurabian union.

“Every year over 100,000 American horses are transported to Canada and Mexico to be slaughtered and their meat shipped to Europe for human consumption.
Horse meat is considered a delicacy in Europe costing around $20. per pound.”

“The horses from America (Canada & Mexico) that are slaughtered for food are race horses, show horses, trail horses, companions and pets.
Horse meat in America is considered taboo.
Horses are mostly considered pets in America thus the taboo for eating its meat.”

Gives new meaning to TESCO’s slogan, “every little helps”.

Does it taste good?

[yarddog]

I remember Nikita Khrushchev telling the Russians that horse meat was good. Also said he would have starved to death during WWII if not for spam.

As a mobster once said when asked about the meat markets in NY.....”Some of it moo’s and some of it don’t moo”

Horse Meat Discovered In Burgers Sold In UK And Ireland

Yabut...

Where's the beef?

[Iron Munro]

Horse meat is sold by special horse butchers and the best smoked meat anywhere is made of horse meat. All deep red meat without a trace of fat.

All pretty expensive meat and purchased only by the well-to-dos.

So these burger eaters should be tracked down and charged extra for the burgers that contained the high priced horse meat!

I, myself wouldn’t knowingly eat it - and I eat just about anything that doesn’t eat me first, LOL!

Can’t get past how beautiful horses are. I also can’t eat coyote or wolf - too close to a dog for me. I’m raising my first steer for butchering. His name is, ‘Dinner’ and he’s still WAY too cute to eat, IMHO. Supposedly I’ll get past that when he’s big and ornery next year. We shall see. He p*ssed on me the other day...that’s not helping his chances!

I’ve eaten guinea pig, snake, rabbit, squirrel, bear, venison, elk, moose, raccoon, bobcat, ostrich, buffalo, alligator & turtle.

Who thought to eat the first lobster, I wonder? LOL!

The article clearly states “horse DNA”.

Those burgers could be full of horse semen, not meat.

It’s called the Camilla Burger.

A man I knew said in WW2 the army fed them ‘corned beef’ but they later discovered that it was canned horse meat.
In the ‘80 he told me that he had stopped buying corned beef because it was horse meat, I asked him how he knew and he told me the above, well with in a month it was in the news that there was a recall of corned beef [from South America]....he was right... horse meat...

"Yeah, well if wishes were horses we'd all be eating steak"

[szweig]

Nothing wrong with horse. Had a delicious sirloin du cheval in Belgium a few years back. Very lean but flavorful.

It’s too bad that the US suffers from “Bambi Syndrome”.

“Oh, they’re so cute....how could you eat one, besides they become pets and this fouls the market. I’d take a horse burger anytime...probably cheaper than the ‘beouf’...Stevie666
