Big deal.
I don't agree with people stealing animals for food but horsemeat is sweet, tender, low in fat and high in protein, for the majority of mankinds early existence horses were hunted as a source of protein.
Horses are now viewed as pets in the western world hence the taboo in eating their flesh, a taboo mostly popularised by the Catholic church.
On the numerous occassions when Ihave beenholidaying in France I have eaten horsemeat and I would do again without hestitation, it is tasty and healthy.

We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
