I have never eaten horse meat. What does it taste like ?
I,d probably give it a try if I saw it on a menu in Italy - apparently they are the biggest consumers of it in Europe.
It's different for cows.They deserve everything they get. They get well Bolshy when I walk across fields with my fishing gear. Nearly had me in the Arun on more than one occasion. I eat half pounders just because of that.
What happens to all these horses soon after being retired ?
Have a read up on that if you are concerned about these horses and the love their owners and trainers really have for them.
