Sometimes you are so hungry you say could eat a horse. But a Swedish rider has caused furore on social media by doing just that when her favourite steed had to be put down after suffering serious injuries. Harness racer Helena Ståhl turned her one horse – named Iffy Mant - into one course and is now defending her decision to do so after a fierce backlash. The 24-year-old told Swedish paper The Local: “For me there were no alternatives … to eat an animal that had a good life felt right for me.

It’s Sweden. The outrage is probably over the horse not being halal’ed.
Swedish lady eating horse = evil
moslems raping horses owner = diversity
BINGO!
Hi Tennessee Nana!
*ducking*
Yeah, but venison is best.
An old cartoon (can’t find it now) and and equally old joke comes to mind.
The cartoon showed a guy sitting at a restaurant table saying “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse.” and the two waiters behind him are giving each other a knowing smile.
The joke was some guys trying to outdo each each other as to the worst place they ever ate at. One guy said that he was eating a steak at some greasy spoon when somebody yelled “Whoa!” and he damned near choked to death.
He won.
I like kangaroo and moose.
Sadly the kangaroos are so adorable,moose are mean spirited.
When i went to a conservation park in South Australia two weeks ago i was hand feeding the roos, i apologized for eating one of their kin. But you don’t see the same intelligence in the eyes of a roo as you do in a horse or a dog.
Some think that chicken eggs are aborted chickens so won’t eat them. Grocery store eggs have never been fertilized so they can’t be aborted chickens.
I knew a vegetarian who would order pepperoni pizza and pick the meat off. Never mind she was eating the meat juices. The animal gave it’s life so that moron could throw it in the garbage. Disgusting.
I've never ate horse meat...
Beef tastes just fine to me....
I get a lot of mean....from a lot of stores.
And I guess...eat..if you want?
From the movie “The Cowboys” “...never name something (a horse) you might have to eat”.
Anal secretions from beavers taste similar to vanilla? How would they know? Why did they want to know? Ahhhh
I really loved my horse...can’t imagine eating him, wow!
Horse meat wasn’t too bad when I ate it in a Camp LeJeune messhall. It was leaner than beef, not as much fat.
It was marketed as beef but our cooks knew the difference. Later on after I was a civilian there were two Army colonels out of the Pentagon who were buying food for East Coast military and naval bases. The FBI was doing surveillance on a meatpacker outfit in Philadelphia run by the Mafia and discovered the two colonels by accident. They were buying substandard meat at premium prices and getting a nice payday from the Mob.
One day one of our cooks showed me some beef they had gotten in that had a purple stamp saying USDA rejected. They threw that crap in the dumpster.
The article said the horse was euthanized after sustaining serious injuries. What caused the injuries? We’re they accidental, or did this woman do something that caused the injuries?
Dunno..I’ve been around people who had to put their horses down, and never heard of anything like this. They were beyond heartbroken. Eating their horse would not have occurred to them..
This woman’s attitude just seems bizarre
On a sunny Friday morning in Venice, Valerie Rosas is standing in a kitchen, carefully cutting little pieces of meat...It's human placenta...Rosas is a placenta encapsulationist — which means she helps transform the organ expelled after childbirth into something edible:...Sara Pereira, who has encapsulated more than 800 placentas,..."It's becoming so widespread...," Pereira says...Rosas says..."Your own body made it, it's just for you," she says. "No one could prescribe anything more perfect than what your body has made for you."
My daughter’s six year old paint died last spring. They think maybe a rattlesnake got it.
Her husband’s sixteen year old thoroughbred died in November. Got it’s head tangled in a barbwire fence and managed to cut an artery an bled to death. Son-in- lawcwas quite upset.
YOU MEAN IT COMES FROM ANIMALS?
