Elongated nostrils, white showing in the eyes and ears close to the neck. That is a very angry horse.
Widened eyes and flaring nostrils can also be fear, no?
True, the raised head could indicate that. Hard to tell from a picture alone.
In any case, that horse is ready to go

Just win that race ok
Horse meat is absolutely tasty, and if it wasn’t so unpopular it’d probably be in the same price range as beef, overall the market is quite small, and absolutely zero horses are raised for meat. Bluntly said at the end of a horse’s career an owner is asked “do you want an urn, vacuum packs, or not pay anything I’ll sell the meat”. If your dietary preference for meat is animals which have been loved and pampered all their life horse is a very good choice.
Trouble with the scandal back then was that it was all untracked horse meat. And there’s plenty of horses around which get treated with veterinary drugs that make them unsuitable for human consumption because no owner is prioritising slaughter over their health.
Eh, it goes on the plate like frogs do. Horse meat is great and cheaper than beef here
le francé?
I ate horse meat before. It was chewy, and I have special ethical issues with it, like for me it’s like eating a Dog. It does not matter even if it where tasty.
Your dog would not mind eating your horse. Your dog also wouldn’t mind eating you.
There’s two principal reasons why people make a difference between cats/dogs on the one side and horses on the other: The degree to which they’re family, but very crucially also to the degree to which horses, or cows, very much aren’t carnivores, it’s about position on the foodchain, how much heavy metals etc. accumulate, that’s not just a modern thing it’s always been the case. That’s why eating dogs is an exception among human cultures, while with cows not eating them is the exception.
I removed myself from the food chain a decade and a half ago by forgoing meat entirely. Now I don’t have to have weird moral arguments with myself.
Nah, you’re just occupying another spot on it. And unless you’re an algae or something, literally living from light and elements floating about in the air and sea, you’re not at the bottom.
The ecology expands beyond your pet ethical considerations.
Side question: Would you begrudge your dog eating your corpse? If you love them so much, why don’t you feed them, when that is all you have left to give?
Yup
I always knew lasagna was horse. How else could they glue the layers together?
They deliver it at superluminal speeds and the speed keeps everything together.
I checked the best before dates of all the beef lasagne meals I have… and they’re off
So hungry, I could eat a The Picard Maneuver!
Have you eaten one before?
Underrated post
How did I get to thirty before realizing the expression comes from people eating horses when they’re starving and have no other option
Buddy, I’m 41, and I always thought until just now it was saying you were “so hungry you could eat a(n entire) horse.”
That’s how I’ve always interpreted it too.
It’s pretty much an Anglo Saxon exception that horse meat isn’t eaten… It’s not as popular as it once was in Quebec, but it used to be readily available…
Well sure, there used to be a lot more horses that died annually, back when they were a primary means of transport.
Which expression? I’m fluent in English but don’t know all expressions
I’m so hungry I could eat a horse.
Makes sense. Thanks!
Absolutely worth it
Horse Burger?
Ooh I’ve been there
Not that hungry…
Yet…
Where I live it’s common enough that there is a stall in the farmers market that sells horse meat and sausage.
I actually ate horsemeat once at a (supposedly) Mongolian restaurant. Nothing memorable compared to other types of meat
Totally forgot about that.
Calm down, I said eat out 😏
This post is about a horse, sir.
Not a cow… like your mom!You just roasted the shit out his mom.
What a shame, I prefer a medium rare
Brotha neighhh
