Would you eat horse?

wretcheddomain

So would you eat it as regularly as other meats?

I'm not horsing around with this thread only I think it's one of the mane issues that's worthy of discussion. We can hear both sides of the debate despite the fact that many will trot out the same old arguments. Nonetheless, we won't be muzzling anyone's views on this thread. I've added a poll but I feel I know which side will gallop away in numbers but I may be proven wrong.

So is it a yay or a neigh?

It's a yay from me.

Frosty McSnowballs

Only a racehorse.

FearDark

Puns.

Surely enough excuse to start a thread.

Cue Tesco jokes in 3.... 2..... 1....

I could eat the arse off a horse in mid-race.

kneemos

Probably have.

theblaqueguy

Yeah sure why not most of us have probably eaten already because of the horse meat scandal

zenno

I wouldn't eat a horse because I like the little fellers. But I don't like humans, so I'd eat them instead.

Pass that bit of leg over tony, yum, tender indeed.

Wasn't it just crappy frozen burgers though? In that case, I haven't.

If you had a piece of flesh from a human and a horse, which would you try (after cooking of course)?

PizzamanIRL

Am I right?

Horse.

Human flesh is meant to taste like pig fat.

It'll take you quite a while to get through Brian Cowen so; and you'll need something sharper than a knife as well.

I'm vegetarian so no but if I ate meat I would have no particular objections to horse meat.

Eaten horse a few times in france...it tastes pretty much like beef.

It's quite well known...called "long pig" by those who eat it.

Also human and swine flesh is structurally quite similar...they have been known to use pig skin as part of human skin transplants and pig insulin has also been used.

That's why uncooked pigmeat is so dangerous,what lives in a pig can live in a person!

It was only a matter of time before the vegetarians i.e. self-righteous moralists, felt the need to tell us they don't eat meat, declaring their superiority over us heretics to nature.

Ironic that this thread is currently sitting just below the one about the cruelty to the horse in Tallaght.

I'm merely clarifying my position that I don't currently eat it but have no particular objections to horse compared to other meats.

But you just go right ahead with your thanks whoring drivel.

Cut the attitude and stop baiting people.

Id love a horse burger washed down with a horse pepsi

Howard Juneau

Yep, it was ok, only did it as I had never tried it before. Same with kangaroo & springbok.
Actually want to try dog......or at least the little fckr in the doge meme....I'd enjoy every last mouthful!

Yes, I have seen it in several documentaries or factual type programs now.

Also sells horse steaks to take home and cook for yourself. Delicious.
I usually have them with honey roast sweet potato and carmelised red onion.

I have eaten it, lovely.

Had horse salami in Germany some years ago, it was very tasty :cool:

osarusan

Ate raw horse (basashi) in Nagano about 7 years ago. Thin slices of meat, just tasted like meat.

tampopo

I had it once in Japan. Have to say it was the most delicious tasting meat I'd ever eaten. I'd eat it again, no problem...

Colleagues in Brussels tricked me into eating horse salami once. Did not like, was very stringy.

The supermarkets over there are mad, there is an entire horse section...
