Whats Wrong with Horsemeat? (in Off-topic)

Can some one tell me why Bartjan has a problem with horsemeat? He Seems to be touchy about this issue..I am just curious..People all over the world eat all kinds of things that some of us wouldn't touch..Cats ands dogs have come up before as to the fact we dont talk about those poeple who eat them for dinner. So is horsemeat a new edition to the dont talk about items? This is a new one if so . J ...Texas Exports 500 tons of Horsemeat annually for human consumption..Whats the problem? Texas should just stop feeding 3rd world countries .

Noo!! Poor horses!!!

Horsemeat is very tasty I believe the French eat a lot of it - the bad feeling about horsemeat all stems from the 1st world war where old horses were being eaten (they were killed first). If any of you has eaten Mutton you will know that generally meat from an old member of a species is tougher than young meat.

There is nothing different about eating Horse (especially the d'oevres) than eating 'bambi' steaks.

If I was a horse I would rather know that I would be eaten and enjoyed with a nice bottle of Chianti than boiled down for Glue (I think) .

If I were a horse, I'd rather be a 900k Stallion than a 150k Filly with one day's NUB left

There's nothing wrong with it per se, however many people consider the horse a noble animal. That is, one capable of assisting man and being his companion, much like a dog.

A horse burger just doesn't sound appetizing...

Horses for courses. I'd prefer it as a first rather than a main :P

This thread is really flogging a dead horse

You know.... I think... yes indeed I am... I am hungry enough to eat a horse.

Stop horsing around.

theres a dish in japan where they eat raw horse meat like they eat raw fish (sushi, sashimi). too bad i ate it BEFORE someone told me it was horse meat.... it tasted pretty nice too, especially with soy sauce.

Perchance you were eating SEAhorse meat? :P

You really need to get down of your high horse

Don't you just love threads that turn into punfests ;P

"Don't you just love threads that turn into pun fests"

Yeah you either love or hate them...
Question is why am I the putz that is always involved in them :P

Oh yeah I forgot to add a line:

If your hungry....never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Was that a rhetorical question, Simmo? ;)

And trying to correct your spelling after Bast has turned up is like locking the stable door after the horse has bolted.

A horse destined to be eaten in a third world country walks into a bar to order his last drink.
The bartender looks at him and says, "Hey buddy, why the long face?"


Oops, wrong thread :P

Is that a suggestion that France is a third world country? ;)

It doesn't really need to be suggested by BM really does it? I think we all know the answer ;)

for us citizens, France is already a member of the third world, isn'it? ;-)

i can add that horsemeat is very tasty, and moreover it raises performances of men
