Charlotte Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 F&ck sake its just another animal. I know horses are meant to be more noble but come on you'll eat everything else from ostrich to alligator. Just don't tell Rosie huh I just think it's a personal choice. I don't eat meat anyway so I'm not fussed either way but I mean, I think you should know what you're eating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Well to her credit she decided she didn't like it BEFORE she knew what it was. Can't say I was that struck either. Cooked it a bit dry unfortunately. Tasted similar to venison/wild boar - that kind stronger mean taste. I won't bother again. Her face was priceless though as she stared at me in silence for several seconds trying to weigh up wether I was taking the piss or telling the truth. All she said was "If you're going to feed me strange animals I'd rather know before hand so I can decide if I want to eat them. I don't think I would've eaten horse." Which is fair enough really. Looks like I'll live to see another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need4Speed Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Popular myth is that Cheval meat is just any horse. It comes from a particular type of horse and it's not the stuff you find at the pony club! Ask any knowledgable (and they seem to be when it comes to food) Frenchman. Incidentally, why are prawns 3 times the price in the UK that they are in France? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Did you ring me from France yesterday Pete? Yes - I wanted to know if you wanted some of the same stuff bringing back. I was in Tesco Calais at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only get that re-constituted crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Somewhat interesting actually... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_meat I may have to try some to say I have at least tried it before I comment.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 You're a brave man Pete. Incidentally, why are prawns 3 times the price in the UK that they are in France?Especially when they import them from us. No, seriously, they do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tepster Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Dont tell her! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/horse_racing/6143558.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 So the dilema is, do I tell her before I cool them up and feed them to her tonight? Or tell her after? I would only tell her about the little French maid that you and your mucka went two's-up on Pete!! I would leave the horse-burger issue though as that might be just too much for her to accept!! :yummy: :yummy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
