In the UK I've never seen horse meat available in the supermarket. During the horse meat scandal the biggest complaint wasn't so much that they were selling horse meat, it was that they were lying and saying it was beef, so I suspect a lot of us would happily buy it and eat it if it was sold properly, especially if it was cheaper than beef. While you can buy raw / unpasteurized milk in the UK, there are limitations. You can only buy it direct from the farm, or delivered straight from there, so it's not available from the supermarket. So by definition it's definitely bought when it's very fresh.

Add Switzerland to the list. As a result of riding horse breeding, some of the calves not suitable for riding go to specialized horse butcheries. Especially cured and dry aged filet/tenderloin (Swiss German: "Pferdemostbröckli") are a delicacy and go for over CHF 100 per kilogramm (USD 50 per pound). These are very well appreciated as Christmas gifts. Back in the days when there were no roads and tunnels through the alps, mules were the only option to transport goods over the alpine passes (horses were not sure-footed enough and donkeys too stubborn). As a result, the original northern Italian Salami was made of horse/donkey/mule meat. Nowadays salami is made from beef and/or pork.

Yes, a lot of cheeses have edible mold on or in them. I don't know the English term for it but in German we call it "Edelschimmel" which translates to "noble mold". There are many mold fungus cultures within cheese specialities in different colours. Have you never asked yourselves where Camembert gets its white, furry surface from and why Gorgonzola has these bluish green veins for example? But don't be scared! Unlike common mold all of these fungus cultures are completely atoxic. Most of them are even wholesome. 🙂

Horse meat was fairly common in the Netherlands. These days you encounter it now and again, and you can just buy some products with horse meat in it in the supermarket. Not much of a difference with eating any other meat. The meat tends to be a bit leaner than beef and depending on the part of the horse it can be stringy. In a number of dishes I prefer it over beef.

German here. Tonka Toxicity: If you eat the salt from 2400 dishes, you could probably die too. You can't find horse meat in _every_ butcher or supermarket in Germany. But if you want it, you will find it easily. It's more of a moral thing. Basically, the meat doesn't differ much from beef. When I was a child, we bought milk directly from the farmer. Absolutely unprocessed. The famous Emmentaler cheese is also usually made from unpasterized raw milk. My opinion: It is the most natural milk. And if you've ever had Swiss cheese from a small cheese factory... you'll be disappointed with most other cheeses. It´s a whole other level in taste. Like you said, raw milk goes bad very quickly, but... that's how nature works. I like Gorgonzola cheese, but not maggots cheese.

Norwegian traditional sausage (think salami) - contains horsemeat (sheep, horse and beef) and is common and sold in normal grocery stores. Also it is almost completely black (deep red/purple tinge). We also commonly eat reindeer and perhaps not as common but not unusual - whale. Keep in mind that many of these "odd" foods stems from a time where there were no supermarkets. You had to use what you had at hand - to avoid starvation. And you could just not "throw away" parts of an animal because "you did not like it".

Suppliers were passing off condemned (not for human consumption) horse meat as prime beef to supermarkets (eg in budget price burgers) and making a big profit.

Eating horse-meat is extremely uncommon. Most Europeans you ask would say they've never heard of eating it and most of the rest will never have tasted it. I have, around 20 years ago. And that's literally the reason I did, to taste it. The horse wasn't slaughtered for meat though. It was in an accident and my father was offered some of the meat. Raw milk is not common in Europe either, only the products made from it. When you've processed the raw milk into something else it'll last a long time for most things. A brie can last months for instance. Haven't tried Casu Martzu, have tried: Roasted ants, fermented shark, traditional haggis(buried in a field), surströmming, pilot whale meat and blubber, silkworms, rattlesnake.

In Finland we do eat horse meat. We don't have horse meat production here but most of the race horses and such do end up being slaughtered in the end. Years ago there was a campange (by some animal protection organisation) to eat more local horse meat because horses were transported to Eastern Europe to be slaughtered and the long journeys were considered to be cruel. We have horse meat steaks available in some higher end grocery stores but mostly it's consumed in sausages (usually in mettwurst). I remember the horse meat scandal in Europe years ago. It was not just about the fact that it was horse meat but that Eastern Europian horse meat was mixed in with beef illegally and sold as beef. So no one knew the real origin of the meat and because meat production is highly regulated in EU it was pretty concerning. They tested all sorts of meat products to find out what was in them and they found out that the scam was a large scale operation and not just in UK. Since then the regulations have gotten even tighter and these days the label on full meat package tells you the farm where that particular meat comes from, at least they do here. On meat products like sausages the label tells you the country where it's from.

To be clear: horses were eaten in pretty much every country where horses were prevalent, all the way up to the early 20th century. You simply do not waste that much meat. However, unlike cows or sheep, horses normally worked for a living. That meant they were usually old when slaughtered, so the meat was tough. It was poor people food ... and army food (which is how it became "normal" food in France). These days, most horses in Europe are used as glorified pets and treated with all kinds of products that make their meat unusable for human consumption (in particular the lethal injection with which they are usually put down). The food scandals around horsemeat are only serious when it comes from those kinds of horses. The meat that is still served (not just in France) tends to come from purpose-bred horses and ponies - often from the US or UK - and is more expensive than veal, i.e. it's not economical to use it in stead of pork or beef. Ironically, the US is actually one of the top producers of horse meat. The UK also produces large amounts of horse meat, only for export. Horses that are not suitable to be eaten generally end up being rendered for fish food.

So we do have Kindereggs in Sweden still but those who made the kindereggs had to adjust to the size. At this point i am fairly sure that most countries including US also have adjusted to that.

I'm not sure, but either the last butchers to sell it openly were in the North ... or they may still be selling it.

A consideration arises spontaneously in my mind after watching many of these comparative videos. I believe that US leaders, in history from the beginning of the 20th century to today, have envisioned a nation project totally oriented towards production efficiency to the detriment of anything else. Even in food distribution it is evident, they have taught you to make huge purchases at long intervals, stuffing your freezers and pantries, losing the taste of fresh and seasonal products. It's obvious that to enjoy life we need to dedicate time to ourselves, an example is shopping every 1-2 days and cooking. But instead the narrative pushed by your media was entirely aimed at creating economic ambitions and objects of desire obtainable exclusively with absolute dedication to work. Unfortunately, the war between rich and poor has been won by the rich all over the world for some time but there are places (example from you) where they have taken advantage of it in a much more brazen way.

Horse meat is not a normal food in Germany. Nowhere in Europe can you order a roast made from horse meat. Rather, it is mixed into a few meat mixtures to create that typical robust taste, like some robust Italian salami sausages. It's similar to game meat. Not an everyday meal.

horse meat (steak) is delicious, more red than beef. (Belgium, but with French grandmother, where I used to eat when I was little). I remember, when I was young that there were butchers where there was an illustration of a horse on the sign.

You can buy horse meat products in The Netherlands, though it's becoming more rare these days. Generally you have to find a specialized butcher that still works with it. It's delicious though, so well worth trying ;)

It has been eaten by Celtic and Germanic tribes in ancient times. While there was a ban by Pope Gregor III in 732, it was done even throughout the medieval times. The horse slaughterer, that took old horses to get the leather and bones, often sold the meat to poor people. The traditional "Rheinischer Sauerbraten" is made of horse meat. In Westfalia they usually hunted and slaughtered wild horses. Until the mid of the 20th century, horse meat was given to poorer people and lung patients. It was a cheap meat, when horse slaughterers took the old and maltreated coach horses in the towns, the poorer people got a good meat for a cheap price. Actually there are some herd of horses, that are kept for meat production. In contrast to sport horses, they are not given certain medcine. So there is a special "passport" for every horse, if it is a sport horse or a meat horse.

What he didn´t mentioned is the swedish surstömming. The mos smelliest fish in the world. You are not allowed to transport it in a plane because of the risk the can will explode. And it is common here in sweden when we serve it. We ask the naighoubres if it´s ok we eat it. Since it stinks so incredible when one open a can of Surströmming. There are plenty of videos of how people who never iten surströmming react the first time they do on YT

We usually do our groceries monthly in Brazil, if you go to a “walmart like” store/supermarket here in the first or last week of the month, you will find it packed with people carrying 1 to 3 shopping carts, sometimes you can’t even find shopping carts available because of the amount of people

Horse meat is quite good actually, but it's not widely consumed and most butcheries don't sell it. Since horses are no longer seen as a cultural heritage like in the US, some people don't see much distinction between horses and beef cattle.

Tbh i have had horses as a kid, i am from Croatia, we did import and export a lot of horses and yes we did eat horse meat but only from horses that had to be put down, im sure there are some horse farms that grow horses just for meat but we were also quite big and never ever killed any healthy horse, only after vet said that he they had to be put down did we actually kill them and if they are approved for eating we eat them. Have to say as much as i love horses i reaaallly love their meat too 😂 the meat is really delicious and sausages made from it too

But foie gras is only an exaggeration of what happens naturally. Geese gorge themselves before migrating to build a layer of fat that will sustain them on the flight to Africa so they don't have to feed. Okay, they don't have humans putting a funnel in their mouths and piping food directly into their stomach, but geese do bloat themselves of their own volition.

Horse meat was available a lot after the second world war in France when agriculture became very mechanised. There were horse meat butchers in every village when I was a kid, although being half British, my mother would look at it with horror and we never had it in our home. But a lot of people my age are still keen on buying it, and a lot of horse meat was available when the very Eastern countries (ex Soviet countries) joined the EU, they butchered thousands of the poor animals dut to 'progess'. We can still find it in supermarkets.

Hi, You can get Horse meat in France, not sure which other EU countries. I have eaten what I believed was Horse Steak, it was good, slightly sweeter than Beef Steak. It is legal in UK, but you would need to label the food correctly, and Brits tend to be ... nah, thanks but no. The Tesco's thing with Beef Burgers, was a specific factory which made burgers etc for other countries had a problem with cross contamination on some of their machine. It also turned out to be an issue with Findus meat pancakes (I think). Generally there is no really good reason for eating Cow but not Horse. In France there are specific Butchers called boucheries chevalines, who specialize in Horse Meat. In French restaurants, a steak that is not specified as Beef (Boeuf) is probably Horse.

I don't eat meat, never have. Here in the Netherlands people eat horse meat, but in America it is also a kind of taboo, just like in England. And animal bones are found in, for example, gelatin, soap and glue. And it seems that horse bones are extremely suitable for this. So maybe you don't eat the meat and it is used in dog and cat food in America, but you do eat the bones in many products. Hmmm, it just depends on what you like.

I 'm French and yeah, in old time, we eating horse meat because it's fatlesss and contained a lot of proteins and iron (good for women). It was the principal ingredient for "steak tartare" raw meat french speciality. But, now, only gourmets eat horse meat, lot of french people think it's disgusting and horrible for animal's rights. It's now unusual and expensive. I love horse meat but i eat that, maybe, one time in one year.

In Britain, we do not intentionally manufacture or eat horse meat, which is why there was such a public outcry over it's use in burgers. The Brits look down on the French for their eating of horse meat and snails and frogs legs. In France aged 10 I laughed at a bar sign outside on a chalkboard that said horse burger. I thought it was a joke. I have unwittingly eaten horse steak in France. It was delicious but I don't like the idea of it. I have also eaten foie gras and Venison in France which tasted amazing but I don't like the idea of either because of the cruelty to the animals. Force feeding geese and deliberately bleeding calves to make their flesh pinker or lighter is disgusting.

The horsemeat issue is something else entirly, most Horses in the US a drugged with several chemicals which makes the meat toxic, EU Horses are drugged at a lesser rate. The Horsemeat that was mixed in was from the US and thus highly likly toxic, which is why there is a blanked bann. EU Horses that recieved the same or similar drugs are also illegal to sell for meat as they are similarly toxic.

Horsemeat can becbouht here in Belgium in almost any big gorecery store. Is not ascpopular as cow meat, but it was for a while during mad cow desease outbreak (some decades ago). Either sold as steak, or as very thin slices for inbetween your bread (and in some local places even as sausages) Still, once and a while, buy and eat the charcurterie one. Steak not so much anymore (smell different when you cook it but taste wise not that much different compared to a normal cow stake)

My family is from Sardinia. It's true that the rotten cheese is banned and you are not allowed to sell it. You have to know a person who knows a person... and so on. I don't know how other families eat it, but normally you cut a piece and you knock the maggots out of it before eating. You can eat the maggots and some people do, but in my experience they are pulled out. As for horse meat: normally they are old horses that you kept and that got ill or injured so much that you can't ride them anymore. You can sell them to butchers. I don't know if you also slaughter young horses as they are mostly used for riding and such
