My Little Pony

Hose meat eh?? *munches on garden hose*

@satwnhetafangirl "Tastes like rubber ... with just a hint of faucet water."

@PaxRomana XDXDXDXD

Found horsemeat in the flowers I ordered for Thanksgiving. Must be my little Peonies.

@FreyjaRN Flowers? How can meat end up in flowers?

@satwnhetafangirl Sorry. Puns in one language don't necessarily translate well into other languages.

@FreyjaRN um? Could you please maybe explain the joke here? I'm honestly very confused right now..

@satwnhetafangirl It's a word play on My Little Pony and a bouquet of peonies.

@FreyjaRN ohh okay

There's HOSE meat in my cow? I know it was a typo, but still XD I was really confused for a second there

I love me some garden hose meat!

I would also freak out if there was hose meat in my meat.

Oh I remember that scandal, it was an issue here in Germany too.
For some reason it had something to do with lasagna too? Everyone talked about horse lasagna.
Maybe that's where they first found traces of horse meat. I don't remember the details xP

@Kyasarin and in the netherlands there were horseburgers or something like that?

@TheDramon Recently where I live there was an issue with glass getting into lasagna.

Actually considering how expensive horse meat is, it's a cheap way to eat some, but it's still better to know what you eat.

@MagicRooster never eaten horse meat.

@VanessaLeskinen Me neither, but I would like to taste at least one time... or I already tasted it but didn't know, all those bad food with horse meat that where in cow food was about "all-made food" and don't have any taste except all the chemical things they put in it, it's definitely trash-food.

@VanessaLeskinen
It apparently tastes enough like cow that people can't tell the difference without a thorough investigation of the production process.

@MagicRooster Horse meat tastes better in my opinion as in actually having some flavour. I think it may be because horses actually *move*. Cows and pigs don't.

@Suominoita What do you mean cows don't move, you've seen a charging bull, haven't you? You mean, like they're not nomadic?

@Xordic More like a general behaviour. Sure, bulls can do some moves if they have a reason to. Most of the time they don't. Horses have need to move around a lot just because.

I don't really care so much if there's different types of meat in stuff (partly because I'm vegan, so I don't have to care (heh heh)) but also, Why does it even matter? Why make such a big fuss over one type of meat to the other? They're all animals. They're not that different. I say go all or nothing.
So, CANNABALISM!
(I'm just kidding, go vegan, it'll save the world XD)

@ScottishHetalianCat There are a lot of reasons why it is serious.

To start with many religions forbid the eating of certain types of meats (or the eating of meat at certain periods of time, or the combination of meat with other food types), and so people who follow those religions and observe the accompanying rules do not want to be tricked into breaking them.

@PaxRomana ... This is awkward. You're completely right of course, and I was being thoughtless. Sorry if I came off as rude.
I guess, to be clear, what I really meant to say was that people made a fuss over different types of meat just because the animal was more cute or something, it made me annoyed because I think that all animals should be considered equal (at least to an extent). For more serious reasons, of course it is an issue. I'll shut up now before I say something offensive, as I am quite prone to doing that by accident. Sorry about that.

@ScottishHetalianCat other than there are certain religions where you can't eat certain things there is also a problem with the declaration of the product. For example if you order vegan chocolate and they add milk without telling you it would be bad. They have to list the exact ingredients

@ScottishHetalianCat *cough cough* vegan won't save the world *cough*

Hose meat are the worst

OH NO! NOT THE HOSE MEAT!
