I`ve got to put Ben , one of my horses , to sleep later on today , is it morally acceptable to eat him ....?!
I`m sure he`d be ok with thatWww@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Yes- but you will need to shoot him as barbiturates work second hand!. It would be silly to waste all that meat!. If he is old a slow pot roast would be ideal (say, overnight in the bottom oven of the Rayburn) add plenty of onions,carrots, garlic, herbs and red wine!. If he is young and has just broken down and that is why you have to slaughter him, then take some steaks off the rump and fry as you would with beef!. Yummy, yummy BEEF!. Mmmm!. Hey, this horse thing sounds a great idea!. I'm all for eating road kill and anything from the wild!. It is crazy that people consider it more morally acceptable to throw a dead animal away than to utilise it and at least make its death useful in some way!. When so many are starving in the world, I think we should consider ourselves very lucky that we have the luxury to pass moral judgements on such things!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes it is morally acceptable to eat him, unless your a vegenazi, who will probably come on here and give me heaps of thumbs down!. But yes if you are going to shoot him then you can eat him, actually horse meat is delicious, although slighty tough!. If he is going to be injected then I wouldn't eat him, because whatever drug they use will remain in his body!. also if you are in Australia dont eat him, because of the old Equine Influenza outbreak, although its over now, some horses may still contain the disease, and with a risk of human infection, similar to Bovine Spongyform Encetholopathy or Mad Cow Disease, which is known in Humans as Jacob Crokfeldt's (spelling) Disease!. Anyway check the liver and kidneys for white spots or strange colours, check the heart for worms and if they have none of the above, then its fine to eat!. I am sure Ben would be happy, that you ate him and didn't waste him, you could also take the skin off and cure it, then have a nice Ben rug!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Since the vet will use a cocktail of drugs to deliver a fatal dose which will cause your horse to die!. This cocktail of drugs will affect all parts of the horse and may prove to be poisonous!. I don't think that the authorities will allow meat that is not fit for human consumption to be used as food!.
Not only that some horse destroyers are exceptionally highly poisonous anyway!.
I am not totally sure but I believe that horse meat is not available in Britain for human consumption in accordance with the law!. What I do know is that until the 1930's it was eaten!. I don't know if a law was passed preventing it from being eaten or if it is just a taboo that has come around!.
Not forgoing all of the above, I don't see any reason why if you are permitted to eat him why you can't eat him!

Sure as long he wasn't diseased or anything!. I remeber a tv show where one character was talking about his pet pig!. They asked him how he was and he answered " not bad with apple sauce!.!."

Well actually I have often thought about donating my remains to a zoo or wildlife park as food!. Let's face it, I will not need by mortal body when I am dead so why not use it to feed something!? The only thing I haven't got round yet is the fact that animals might start to prefer the taste of human flesh which is probably not a good thing!.
There must be many ways in which the human body can be recycled instead of being buried!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is illegal to sell horse meat from horses which have been vaccinated against disease!. I'm assuming you were a good owner who gave Ben his jabs, and aslo assuming you don't want to eat meat which could make you ill/die!. So I'd say no!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
There's nothing wrong with that!. If you don't, something else will!. Just be careful!. If you're putting him down because he's ill, do not eat him - it may be transmissible!. If it's due to injury, you should be fine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
