Horses to be killed for meat in U.S. for the first time in five years due to Mexican demand for unusual food

The owner of a New Mexico slaughterhouse is defending his plan to become the first plant in the nation since 2007 to handle horses after an outcry from politicians and animal activists.

In interviews with the Roswell Daily Record and the Albuquerque Journal on Friday, Valley Meat Co. owner Rick De Los Santos said he's trying to revive his failing business and that what he's proposing is legal.

The horses he plans to process are being slaughtered anyway in Mexico and his operation would be overseen by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and meet much higher standards, he said.

Octopus is nice. Never tried eating it alive like some of my more daring friends in Korea, but dead it's quite tasty.

I used to be a real carnivore as a kid and ate anything that was given to me including wild squirrel and deer! but for health reasons I now just stick to chicken and seafood. Still I'd love to try horse meat. My cousin and his family used to reside in Kazakhstan and over there horse meat is a delicacy!

Horse meat is actually good.. I love horses but whether cows, chicken, horses.. they all are animals at the end.

The health benefits of horse meat is way better than Beef, lamb. It is way leaner. I don't see why they would justify killing some animals and not do that for others... is it because they look better? :)

There is a fast food place in Qatar that sells camel.

I think it's called 'Wali' and it boasts about being Qatar's first fast food restaurant.

What's wrong with eating horse? It is not haram and the meat it provides has the same nutritonal value as cows. Is it because cows are ugly and horses more appealing we find it difficult?

May be they are after horses' power ?
