    Just as speculation - would we have any reason to believe that horse meat would be any cheaper than beef if it were as popular as beef and produced in a similar manner?

    I see no reason that it would be a fraction of the price of other meat products if it were not viewed practically as a waste product in the mraket.

    I'm reminded of an episode of M*A*S*H where Colonel Potter got all upset about locals eating horse meat. Paraphrasing, he said, horses are noble creatures, beautiful animals. Cows are ugly. We're doing them a favor by eating them.

    Of course, Potter was an old horse soldier so he might have been a bit biased...

    Americans agree: Eating horse is not kosher.

    But isn't that only because we are all mind-controlled by the Jewish Illuminati lobby?

    I will not voluntarily eat horse. I'm with LWT, this is not rational as I am happy to eat cow, pig, chicken, deer, elk etc. Some how eating a horse is just wrong. However something has to be done with the wild horse population. They are not a native species and in some parts of the west they are destroying the land. I just don't think eating them is the answer.
