I wouldn't eat horse for the same reason that I wouldn't eat beef (read: I'm a vegetarian!) but if I ate meat, I think I might be prepared to eat horse. It's hard to say, I never have eaten meat so a lot of my views on things would have to be different for me to eat it and therefore my view on horses might be different too. I don't think I could eat cat or dog though. But the point is that they said "oh shit how did that get in there?!" which means either they are lying and knew it was there, or genuinely didn't know it was there, and either way that says a whole lot about their approach to food hygiene and safety regulations.

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've done that... I'll have to retroactively do it more to fix it and set continuity straight....
On topic, I can be fairly picky when it comes to food and may be among the people overly freaking out... but I'd like to think most of it would be the whole "hey, this is NOT what you said it was" deal. Though.... if horse looks and taste like beef anyway, maybe it wouldn't be a huge deal for me to try it. Maybe...

I don't know that there is a single animal I would outright refuse to eat outside of legality issues. I am not easily bothered by knowing what I'm eating due to being raised on a ranch. On the other hand, I also won't deny that I'd have some moral qualms about certain animals due to their eerily self aware intelligence such as elephants, dolphins and various primates.
Otherwise, I'm the kind of person who is well aware of what goes into sausage, and considers it a good thing, and gives no shits. So to speak.

Not being able to tell the difference between horse and cow in hamburger is pretty likely. The whole pig anus / calamari thing involved a taste test, and people couldn't tell - basically, if you slice something thin enough and then fry it, it'll be hard to tell what it is anyway.

It's act 1. I can't get the player to post as a link, sorry.
