I voted no, but...

... the question is about the future.

There has been a trend in the last year to have horse meat cold-cuts as appetizers in Ukraine. The first time I saw it, I tried it because it wasn’t obviously cow tongue. It tasted like a soft beef jerky, very dark meat with a bit of a tang. I didn’t really like it so I didn’t eat any more, didn’t ask what it was. The second time I saw it was another party when it was offered to me. I declined because I recognized it as something I didn’t like, and the host said, “What? This is good horse meat, why don’t you try it?” I looked him straight in the eye and said,

“Why would you ask a Texan to eat a horse? Why don’t you go chew on your car.”

Nobody else has offered me horse meat, so I think the word is out amongst my friends.
