I think it is a historical hangoverOld horse probably tastes crap. Young horse was too valuable to eat because it was too useful for plowing, transport etc. Eating a horse might give you 10 meals, using a horse to work on a farm will give you 1,000 meals.

I was told that the older the horse, the better the meat.:)

What I mean is, I can understand being okay eating any animal, or refusing to eat any animal.I can't understand the halfway positions which most people seem to adopt.
Also, I'm tired of people asking me "but you still eat fish, right?"

True, I don't understandthe halfway types either. I'll eat, or at least try, almost anything (If you are paying). The only food I wouldn't give a go would be because it was endangered etc. I don't understand people who say 'I don't eat X' when usually there are about 500 ways to prepare it that all taste a bit different.
