the horsemeat had clearly not been passed for human consumption, as we didn't know it was there.

Its culture is not in Japan in general. It exists only in high-end restaurant.

-I mean, we breed by prodding a thing in a hole and then grow one of ourselves in a giant, fluid-filled cyst, before trying to squeeze it out in unbearable agony. Some of us do it several times.
-Our societies can barely exist without creating an 'us and them' mentality, which usually leads to the 'them' being marginalised and oppressed.
-Our evolutionary success partially derives from our ability to eat other creatures that aren't that dissimilar to us. There is also evidence to suggest that humans once widely practised endocannibalism.
-We enjoy looking at cat videos.

You'd probably have to hang it for a good few weeks to make something out of it that anyone would want to eat. That or use a really big sledgehammer, which might seem a bit disrespectful to poor Nobbin.

nobody knows what horsemeat was used. Every cow in the UK has a 'passport' and is traceable throughout the system. I wouldn't mind eating horse, but I'd want to know it has been checked for disease etc before I do.

I think it's pretty fucking profligate of the UK government to dish them out to cows willy-nilly.

If your entire life consisted of standing in a field then being killed and eaten, you can't begrudge them a holiday. Strange so few cows take up the option.

But cows can't go on planes -- too big -- and and things tend to happen to them when they pass through France. Being eaten is bad enough but being eaten raw by a Frenchman? The mind shudders.

the problem is not what is in things generally
but why "random things are suddenly in things" that should not be in things.
Wow, poor standards in the meat industry, how completely surprise
innit.
