In France, horse falling off restaurant menus

 While draining a cup of Joe this morning, I found out, to my horror, that people in France eat horses!

I had no idea these beautiful animals were on anyone’s menu these days. I’m glad to see that the practice is slowing down, and hopefully will end soon.

Many people love horses and traditionally, many French people have loved them even more with a side of salad.

That passion, however, has slowed to a trickle in the last couple of years as crisis-hit French consumers buy less meat and years of campaigning by animal rights groups take effect.”
