[Sca-cooks] Neigh not udder things to consider

[Ana Valdés]

I have read on Marvin Harris great book "Good to Eat" and he says the taboo
to eat horse food is a cultural taboo and in the US the Navy provided cheap
cuts of horse meat several years in their subventionated restaurangs but the
beef lobby denounced it and they stopped it.
