If this happens I am becoming a Vegie

Where's the input from our brothers up North? I don't know this for sure, but I thought horse meat was consumed in Canada? I don't see what the big deal is, I eat everything else meat related (bear, deer, squirrel, cow, turkey, etc.). Granted, I've never had a pet horse so maybe I'd feel differently but I doubt it.

This could open up a whole new BBQ debate.
The Carolinas say BBQ has to be pork
Texans say BBQ has to be beef
I wonder who will be the first to be the horse BBQ capital of the US

We are at the top of the food chain, everything else is fair game.

I mean, shit, I enjoyed a goat's tongue, brain and eyeball (which, I was assured, was normal) with cigars and scotch. What's a horse?

I only caught a few seconds on the radio, but I believe they said the previous restrictions on regulating horse meat was only in place since 2005 or something. In other words, this new bill won't do anything but resort us back to how it was less than a decade ago. I don't know about you but I don't recall a lot.of horse meat on the shelves then either...

Exactly.

When you read the article, it's the activists that are predicting (or rather, freaking out) what "might" happen next. This is what activists do best, hence their namesake.

Classic. New state motto:

"We breed winners and dinners!"

Or, if you're a fan of Richard Gere in his Officer/Gentlement capacity:

"We have two types of horses..."

A lot of kids eat paste maybe they will be allowed to add it to the school cafeteria menu now. From what my kids say it may be an improvement.

People have been eating horse and camel meat for ages don't see why this bill should stir up such storm.

I chowed down on iguana a while back pretty good. I know its cliche but it did kind of taste like chicken.

I wonder if in 5 years we'll have the debate on production and free range horse meat.
