When I was a little kid there was a place downtown call Jet Burgers. Shut down after a few years for using horse meat. Tasted good and was cheap.
Some years ago, on Utah, I went to a restaurant that was known for having "great" steaks. Good beef was hard to come by there; I was accustomed to feed lot finished beef having come from the Chicago area. The place advertised that it raised the cattle on the same land as the restaurant. The steak was, to my taste, a little "off "looked out at the land from the dining room table and saw only horses, no cattle. Hmm.

I ate a horsemeat sandwich once and got sick...
But I think it was the tainted mayo-neighs.

ZEBRA meat is too confusing to eat, let alone 'count'... It's white meat / dark meat / white meat /dark meat - every other bite.

My Grandparents were from Belgium they came here in 1930....they owned a farm here in Michigan....I remember in the 50's-60's them butchering horses for the freezer....after my Grandfather passed away in the late 60's the farm was sold haven't had horse meat since then.... What I remember is it was dryer type meat if barbecued not very much fat.....roasts were about the same..... The only horse meat I've ever eaten was in a restaurant in an alleyway full of restaurants and shops just off of Grand Place (central square) in Brussels, Belgium. Didn't think it was bad.

When I worked for Northwest airlines, in the 90s we shipped lots of horse meat to France. Pretty much every flight most of the cargo was horse meat!
Deer Camp! about as good as it gets!

In the drought a few years back much of the horse flesh went south to Mexico. Drove prices on working horses up on this side. They like it there.

No and no. I grew up riding horses and working cattle. I will eat beef though.

I can’t believe the stupidity and emotional immaturity of a nation that lets people go hungry while feeding feral horses?

We had huge horse steaks several time at Sul Ross. Back in the 70's that place was cool in many ways.

They say donkey is the best.
The only reason horse is illegal in the US are the bleeding hearts. I seem to recall having it once and the impressions was that it is finer-grained than beef but just as tasty. I'd certainly have it again. Spot on. We all know why it is illegal to slaughter horses for meat and why. Cowgirls. Horse women. Some of these sweet hearts will just kick your azz. Throw full bottles of beer at you. I'm telling you I know at least 6 women that keep horses and they shovel and move some hundreds of pounds of relatively fresh horse manure every day or at least every other day and it sucks to do that.Then they ride it around on a spredder after it dries some. Course they take that time to run the dogs and check out all horses. It's a pshycosis. They live for those horses not to mention hard riding women. All barrel racers. You rock that boat I am not touching it.

Had some on a charcuterie board in Italy. It had a very strong flavor close to beef, but different enough to notice. Not high on the list of things to eat again, but if I’m starving, I know it won’t kill me.

I went to boarding school in England in the late60's-mid 70's. I can still smell the sweet smell of the big pot of simmering horse meat wafting out of the kitchen. They used to say it was for the dogs but wound up as [bleep] on a shingle over fried toast. didnt kill me.

I would much rather eat Lassie than Trigger.
I ain't never had a dog pack my nappy ass off of a mountain in a raging storm with wind chill around 10 degrees. I could never eat a horse, too close to cannibalism for me.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I really have no idea. Horse was common in Kazakhstan. Offshore on the Caspian we were served goulash on rice. No idea what the meat was. When I moved onshore (Atyrau) I found the local "grocery" store with a butcher counter and three walls of vodka. I wanted to make chili bringing the necessary spices from home. There I found multiple piles of ground meat labeled in Russian with employees that spoke zero English always wondering what meat I chose. That said, the chili was good.
