Wait really? For a window of time, we had horse meat on the menu?

It can still found in some places in France. It's quite good, a bit like beef with less fat.

Sold overseas, absolutely. Domestically, it's been a more.. controversial subject. https://priceonomics.com/when-americans-ate-horse-meat/

Horse leather (shell cordovan specifically) was for years used to make police belts and holsters - it's heavier than cow leather and more supple.

I think you can buy a horse steak in most western countries, although most regular grocery stores don't carry it. You'd need to go to a butcher or a higher end store.

I bought a cut of horse steak in Norway around 2005. I haven't really looked for it since, so I don't know if they stopped selling it. It's often mixed into sausages as well, but labeled in a less obvious way.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
