I'd try it, I'd guess the main reason people don't like this idea is because horses are considered pets in this country like dogs and cats...

We had a Mare breaks it leg when I was a teen. My father wasn't about to bury all that meat. We ate it for about 6 moths. It was a bit distinctive in flavor but delicious.

I tried it once a few years ago, similar situation to what nhgunnut had. A horse was permanently injured, its owner put it down cut it up and sure well for a while. I wouldn't say it was good, tasted like a tang steak

I always wondered what Tang was made out of.

I wouldn't eat it. There are all sorts of meat that I won't eat.

I love hearing stories like this because I cannot comprehend a life where this would happen. Much respect.

Same here.
I'm not going out of my way to find it, but if it were served to me I'd give it a try.

I'd try it. Never heard of it being available anywhere, though. Why was the ban put in place and what caused it to be lifted?

I know it had something to do with Willie Nelson.
