It's why I never really *got* the horse meat scandal a few years back. Like, obviously lying to consumers is completely reprehensible but much of the outrage was about 'ew! I don't want to eat horses!' and I just thought  I couldn't care less what it is if it tastes nice. I find the whole monopoly of dignity people put on their home nation's domesticated animals a bit strange really, why is the life of a dog more important than a pig just because it could be a pet? |
I'm like you. The only thing I question is the animal husbandry before slaughter and the method of slaughter. Unfortunately, a lot of horses get exported on the hoof to countries who don't have the same slaughtering rules we have.
I was vegetarian for quite a long time and I still have this little voice in my head that says, "meat is murder" but then I smell smokey bacon
