I wonder if horse is as heathy as venison?

Depends on how much of a thoroughbred it was… 😈

I had horse in Switzerland a couple of years ago. Meaty, but not as tasty as steak by a long shot.

If you’ve ever had a steak for under a tenner in France, it’s horse. 🙂

Very healthy, apparantly.

Oh, can I be the first?

Cheers, I feel better now.

horse meat is ace– best sausages i have ever eaten were horsemeat ones yum yum

I had a cheval burger in France once,it beat steak by a short head

Eaten horse on a few occasions, don’t see what the problem is.

It’s not as good as moose…

the fact you are buying a beef burger and getting upto 29% horse meat……

never knowingly eaten moose–is it good ?, have eaten dog,not very impressed, wouldn’t do so again, defo won’t eat a ‘burger’ unless i knew its contents ….

Go on, tell us.

Moose – yeah, seemed to be a bit like venison but milder. Although it was cooked up with a peppery sauce a little hard to pick out.

Most of us have eaten horse, if we ever had school meals back in the 70’s so i’m told..

Horse is my favourite steak, I worked in the horse eating capital of the world (Vilvoorde) for a few months, got a real taste for it. Wish it was readily available over here.

I never buy burgers. I always make them myself. With Beef mince.

Probably !

29% meat in a supermarket burger? I’d be impressed!

in curacao , in the worlds largest brothel– i kid you not they had a turnstyle to get in–happy valley it was called– went in with a few shipmates as you do….. it was like a butlins, but full of scantily dressed women– there were food stalls, bars,usual stuff–i asked for what i thought was chicken drumstick–it was big–but it did not taste of chicken–there was some sniggering from the vendor and his mates,i did not finish it, was told later that it was most likely dog , as they used them as a cheap chicken substitute !! this was 1981–

I love horse meat, I wish it was generally available here.

Prefer it to beef steak personally.

Yes, I felt ‘woof’ as hell afterwards.

My wife fed me Tesco burgers this evening, mmmmmmmm 29% Horse Meat lmao

My daughter looks appalled, which is even funnier 😀

It’s an ideal mane course.

Tend to eat my burgers on the hoof.

Lol funny I said just a week ago in the Tesco thread about the shit quality of the Irish meat they were buying. it’s not even Irish. it’s imported from abroad then processesed as Irish. they were likely send lumps of meat packed as beef from ol Carlos. no tractor on the pack no eating. probably all sorts of meat in there.

Gives me the trots.

Yes ate dog, used to get served it in a chicken surprise sandwich in Bosnia 😉 surprise was the sliced egg was the only chicken. Should have realised as there were very little in the way of livestock at the time. Tasted ok tho and I went back.

Used to eat horse lots overseas too no probs, tho I doubt these burgers have much of any meat in them

Gives me the trots.

and we have a winner

Eating horse? Just say neigh…

“It’s not as good as moose… “

Chocolate moose?

Tesco horse puns, you say? Why, yes, I do: https://twitter.com/beztweets

Maybe best to check that someone else didn’t do the same gag five posts earlier 🙂

horse meat–worth a dapple ….

Horse Burger ?

We’re going to need a bigger bun !

Buy them quickly because they won’t be on the shelves furlong.

I’ve eatn horse in France and it was OK, a little stringy for my liking.

Worst thing I’ve eaten was crocodile in Africa – now that was disgusting. Like rancid fatty chicken and pork combined.

I went to get a burger from the fridge last night, checked the best before date … And they’re off!!!!

I had donkey steak in a very swanky restaurant in China. Was good, slightly sweet, and tender.

Tesco’s finest equine burgers anyone?
