so did this guy http://www.schwarzenegger.it/mro/nubret.jpg
And i think the horse meat will be the same price as steak maybe even a little cheaper
It’s actually surprisingly good when eaten raw and dipped in soy sauce (or yakiniku sauce). The Japanese call it “Basashi”

For me, I gotta say the idea feels pretty taboo and not in a naughty fun good way…
I don’t think I’d ever try it.
I hgihly recommend it as it is leaner and superior in muscle building components. meat from horses is a staple food in the diets of many African bodybuilders.
Mmmm…seabiscuit.

I am willing to bet it is cheap as hell when it first hits the market.
So many people, myself included, won’t eat it that they will need to build a market.
Assuming the meat was regulated the same as every other meat, I’d probably have to try it out. The idea is kind of repelling but I imagine it’d taste/smell good. So, if it’s healthy, why not?
If I can stomach crustaceans I can probably give horse a try. If you can eat something that close to a hexapod, a horse shouldn’t give you much pause.
I had some in japan. It’s actually one of the best meats I have ever had. I hadn’t realized it was illegal in the states.
I was raised on it before I came to the US. Kinda tough, have you ever seen a fat horse ?

i have heard it is tough/sinewy too… that being said, nothing a few chains and corn/soy diet cant fix 
…could also make a decent lean burger i suppose
Had some smoked horse meat here in Japan.
It was good. Real good.
Fellas, it’s tough, pretty tough. Cooks quick because it is so lean. Very bloody, it is a staple in hospitals in Italy because of it’s iron and hemoglobin content, supposedly helps you recover faster but I cannot account for that. Horses have almost double the blood a human has.
From an article I found…
“Beyond its taste, however, horse meat is also incredibly good for you, and is USDA-recommended. It?s low in fat, very high in protein, and has double the iron of lean beef and other meats. It also has a high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids, which help fight stroke, heart disease and neurodegeneration.”
If you care to look for it, you might find it under a label of “Equine” for a more politically correct reaction than seeing a sign saying “horse meat” in the supermarket.

I love horse meat. Twice the iron, half the fat as most beef!
It’s a little less flavorful than beef but can be had ground, or in steak form.
One of the best foods out there for weightlifters of all kinds imho.
