Did you really eat it or just put it in your mouth for a few minutes ?

I ate it. I was there in 1980 and there were not any McDonald's outside of the one in Paris, and I didn't know what I was ordering for some reason except that it was a burger. When I was halfway through my French friend told me what it was.

Dare me to eat this when I go in a few months?

I think the issue riding side-saddle as scandal has more to do with mis-labeling (fraud) as consumers are not getting the meat they anticipated.  ;)

Excerpt from linked article:

"...The scandal erupted Feb. 7 when Britain’s Food Standards Agency discovered horsemeat mixed into frozen lasagna labeled as 100 percent beef. Horse-loving Britons, who would never think of eating Black Beauty, were shocked, all the more so in that the lasagna came from across the English Channel.

“It’s a straight fraud,” said Britain’s environment minister, Owen Paterson, giving voice to the outrage of English consumers. “If a product says it’s beef and you’re actually buying horse, that is a fraud...”

I don't know what the difference in eating a horse versus a cow, lamb, or pig would be.  Is a horse more superior than a cow? 

Naked man sings to ham.  Maybe a hot man will be singing to a Horse soon.

I have heard that a pig is more intelligent than either a horse or cow. Still, bacon.

I think every culture, but ours in a noteworthy way, engages in cognitive dissonance.

I thought this was going to be a thread about something else.  Darn. 

I've always found it interesting how we decide which animals are acceptable to slaughter and eat, and which are not.  I mean, cows are very gentle animals and pretty smart.  Well, watch out for those bulls.

Class!  Class! (hitting wooden ruler against desk).  Pay no attention to that vulgar off-message display immediately above! You are better than that! 

We are here to have an informed discussion about consumer fraud. Admittedly, the lead discussion title is a bit provacative, however it served only to promote interest in the subject and not to encourage certain attendees to revel in the sophomoric antics and sway your attention with a visual of a............................................... plump...long...full...huge...tipped...succullent...mouth...watering...package...of... sausage.....oooohhhh Andrew!  (clears throat, shakes head and regains composure).  OK. enough of that!
