They discovered French lasagnes sold to England had horse in them recently.
I shudder to think what's in some of them here.
The French do have a history of eating horses.
It could be worse. I suppose.

It's a mental and cultural thing.
I would not knowingly eat a cat or dog.
Most Americans would not. But virtually any other animal that is made of meat is on the menu.
I've never knowingly eaten cat.
But i ate dog twice, once knowingly.
not particularly flavoursome and a little fatty.

I do like fried locusts.
They're crunchy and yummy like potato chips.
Lots of missing potential for protein.
I'm not 100% against the practice. It's just not in our culture.
We have so much food, a lot of it goes uneaten.
There was a fad with chocolate covered ants years ago. But it was 99% chocolate and an ant.
Not very adventurous.

Had that , too.
In England, it was a luxury item.
And had a lot more crunchy ants in it.
And then there are honey ants where you bite off the whole abdomen which is like a ball of, er..well honey.
