Horse meat has an emotional history in the US.

I'd be concerned simply because the product was not as advertised. If they're lying about what's in it (or even worse, really, they don't KNOW what is in it) then I wouldn't trust it to be safe to eat.

Pretty much this. I don't enjoy killing, but I have slaughtered and dressed some small game and was raised on a dying ranch; I'm not a vegetarian because most of the time I'm not really bothered that a portion of my food comes from tissue that once was, just like myself, a creature with a mind and the force of life running through it.
However I *do* mind being misled as to what I'm buying. Don't sell me sweet potatoes and then mix in normal potatoes without telling me, and don't give me horse meat if you led me to believe I was buying cow meat.
