During the civil war a lot of soldiers on both sides resorted to eating horse meat. As I understand it the meat was pretty good.

I used to feed my show cats horse meat. It was very good for their coats and their digestion, recommended to me by an old-line breeder.

The English-speaking peoples' prejudice against the horse as food is said to originate with the worship of the horse-goddess Epona. Dunno if that's true . . .

I have no doubt that we will be eating horse meat if the republicans don’t get behind President Trump and the democrats control congress. They already control the bureaucracy.
