I've eaten plenty of horsemeat when I was a kid. My grandparents uesd to have some sort of sausage. It has a weird taste to eat, not at all like pork, chicken or any other meat I've tasted.
I've heard about this horse meat scandal, though mostly concerning the beef sold at Tesco. I don't really see the big deal. People eat horse all the time. I wasn't aware it was one of those animals that was too cute or intelligent to eat.
I don't eat any animal that could potentially save my life.

There's a great scene in the Paul Newman movie HOMBRE. Newman is a white man who had been raised by the Apache's...but is now wearing white men's clothes and has had his hair cut short. He's listening to an uppity woman talking about the Apache's, about how they even eat dogs.
Newman: Lady, you ever been hungry?
Woman: Yes, but never hungry enough to eat a dog.
Newman: I'm not talking of "I didn't finish breakfast and it's another hour before lunch hungry".....I'm talking your belly is so empty you feel it pressing into your backbone hungry. Go 3 or 4 days with nothing.....dog gets real tasty then.
I'd rather die than eat my best friend.
