I think anyone growing up/ going to school in the 80's & 90's will have had horse burgers.

I like horse meat its very lean too.

The right place

Yes. In France. It was fine. It’s just meat.

I’ve eaten, badger, Fox, squirrel, hedgehog, greyhound, deer. I had a friend that was into eating road kill. He pops up on television every now and then.

Yes, tried a horse steak in Iceland.

Much leaner than beef, with a slightly sharper flavour.

It was good

I think its banned here. Whereas abroad it isn't and is regularly served as steak to unsuspecting tourists in France.

Supposed to be a little bit more tough as with it being more lean than a beef a steak.

I ate it years ago in Belgium - it has a slightly different taste to beef steak.

In French restaurants and butchers you will find that steak is labelled Boeuf Steak so that it is easy to see where it comes from.

I have eaten rabbit, pheasant, venison and enjoy them all but I particularly like offal which isn't very popular now. I like liver, heart and kidneys but you need to know how to cook them so that they are not tough.

Just like steak, but chewier is how I remember it.

Used to work overseas a lot, in some countries, unless you specify beef, you get horse...I didn't realise this at first!

Make sure its cooked properly. If it's underdone its a bugger to stop from jumping over the vegetables.

When I went to Iceland there was a restaurant that specialised in Puffin and all the menu was of Puffin prepared in different ways except for desert which was Tiramisu which I thought was a bit unimaginative.

Ha, I had Puffin as part of a tasting menu. It was surprisingly good, but not a lot of it.

I went into my local Hungarian shop for my fave spicey sausage. Picked up wrong one by mistake - I cannot read Hungarian - and lady at counter told me it was horsemeat sausage, not the spicey one.

I bought it anyway. Tried it and found it pretty tasteless. I’ve stuck with the spicey one since.

Yes when I was a callow hoof in France - it was lovely, I also had sweetbreads and andouillette which were quite interesting although snails on the same trip were a bit boring!

Tried Alligatoronce in Florida - tasted a bit like fatty pork - not worth the effort.

Also tried a Goan pork curry when I was over in India which had me dropping the kids off all night long - the rest of the trip was strictly vegetarian!
