Horse meat

Horse meat is unpopular in the United States and Great Britain: eating it is taboo.[1] Horse meat is, however, relatively popular in mainland Europe; in France, Belgium and Sweden, it outsells both lamb and mutton.[2] In the United Kingdom and Ireland, there was widespread outrage in 2013 when it was discovered that beef products sold by several supermarkets contained undeclared horse meat.[3]
