“After interrogating the waiter, we found out that “forcemeat” is a mixture of lean ground meat and fat and not a misspelling of “horse meat.””
Haha . Re: food I’m a guy who will try just about anything once . The raw deer sashimi I ate just the one time . Horse meat is really good and famous here in Kumamoto where we live . Horse meat is leaner, sweeter, and has more nutrients than beef plus has higher levels of iron, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids . along with lower fat and cholesterol.I can understand why some won’t eat it though as horses aren’t considered livestock .
I haven’t had horse meat, but I have eaten kangaroo meat, which is probably healthier than beef because it’s leaner, but doesn’t taste as good. I often make spaghetti with ground buffalo meat.
When I was a kid, there was a butcher shop in town that sold horse meat, and we ate it any number of times, usually braised or in a stew. I liked it.
