As someone who’s been to Kazakhstan 25 years ago, you’re not missing much.
What did it taste like? I’m imagining that it tastes a lot like deer
Pretty much. I had really good horse meat sashimi in Japan and it tasted pretty much identical to elk or deer. It was tasty, but not something I’d feel like going out of my way for.
Yeah it’s not far off deer or springbok or kudu or other types of game. Very sinewy. I prefer the others a bit over horse though. Horse tastes a bit more “dirty” to me.
Horse meat isn’t bad. It’s not exactly a light meat, awful as sandwich meat, but quite similar to beef, actually.
It’s a bit too sweet for my taste.
I’d say it tastes closer to kangaroo than beef.
Ah, yes. A meat everyone can relate to. Very useful.
we eat horse (infrequently) where I’m from. If prepared properly it’s delicious
I’m in Japan right now and have seen it available a few times. I just can’t bring myself to try it.
Maybe I’m just weird, but I don’t get this. I think all animal mistreatment is bad, and I try to reduce how much meat I eat, but I still eat it. I’ve never understood the attachment people have to horses where they won’t eat it. Most people have probably never seen a horse in person, let alone ridden one. I have, and it wouldn’t bother me. I’d eat dog too for that matter, and I have had a pet dog and love dogs. As long as they aren’t mistreated (which they will be if farmed on a large scale, but that’s another issue) then why does it bother you? As far as I’m aware, it’s really only an English and American thing, and particularly American.
In addition, I’m assuming you eat cow/chicken/etc? How does their mistreatment not make you avoid eating them? Shouldn’t that be more important than what type of meat it is?
I’ve ridden horses for years, but I don’t mind eating horse.
Maybe it’s just me, but I feel more kinship with cows than with horses. Cows are fairly intelligent, like regular pack animals. Horses are afraid or everything all the time, it’s exhausting.
Of course I eat some cow every now and then, but if I had to choose, I’d eat horses. They’re not as worthy.
Come on, you can’t say neigh to be a bit of horse
Tesco horse meat scandal
People around me stopped buying Findus not because of the scandal, but because they just didn’t taste as good once they changed their recipe.
I can’t say if it was the horsemeat, but the ready meals tasted better before. I don’t know how to word this without sounding awkward.“It was tastier when it was horse”?
That’s the general consensus around my friend circles, over the years. It did spawn the short lived joke, “I’m so hungry I could eat a Findus” though.
Didn’t Ikea also have one a while back?
Iirc, It was a national problem. Not just Tesco.
Nobody in the supply chain was being overly cautious about what their suppliers were providing them. Resulting in horse meat being found in loads of places.
Turns out it was a European problem.

Back when it happened, I didn’t really follow the news properly and thought it was only a German thing.
Interesting. I’ll have to read that.
Ah, interesting. I’d try it haha.
So? It’s all wrong. Horses, much like cows, pigs, chickens and fish, are capable of feeling love and pain. They are sentient. What difference does it make if it’s horse flesh or cow flesh?
It’s more a false advertising thing than a moral thing.
horse meat is illegal? ive eaten horse meat before.
What does it taste like? I imagine it’s tough as hell and tastes like a bland, overcooked pork chop, but with a mild hay smell.
It’s not tough at all. You know how beef tastes like beef? It’s like that, only horse.
Where I come from, South Sardinia, it’s a delicacy; very common. Buy it fresh, very thinly sliced, cook shortly with garlic, Evo oil and parsley. It’s lovely!
it was really tough, i ate it once because my grandfather believed it helps with people with low iron.
“So do beets and iron pills, grandpa.”
“Ain’t the same thing, pussy…”
lol
Need to do a whole line of those: dogs, cat, human, etc

I’d try them
This looks like something you’d find at Omega Mart
Please tell me that people don’t actually believe this is made for horse meat.

am I going to jail?
Kazakhstani chips?
Legaln’t chips
I’d try it. 😆
Ever taste an Hombre?
That’s how I read it at first…
