   If it ws horse, it probably died of ‘natural causes’. Horse meat is popular in France.

   Have you noticed many mice missing around camp of late?

   EarlWash, I heard of Germany and/or Austria eating horse too on Travel Channel show “Andrew Zimmern’s Bizarre World” on the episode of the said places.

   Used to buy frozen horsemeat and cook it for the dogs way back when they were slaughtering the mustangs out
   west to thin the herds. I never tasted it, just roasted it.

    I once met a woman who had been on vacation in
    the USSR, and claimed she had had rat stew. In
    fact, when I was in Korea in the service, I’m pretty sure I had dog. It was surprisingly tasty. :-)

    When I was with the US Army’s 196th Light Infantry Brigade and in Company A, 8th Support Battalion and worked for Army lawyers at HQ at Chu Lai, South Vietnam, the food served in the mess hall was not always that good.

    We had either boiled in water roast pork or roast beef almost every day.

    When we were headed to noon mess, and we saw someone coming from the mess hall, we asked them what was served.

    If they said “Chu Lai steak,” we usually went back into the Staff Judge Advocate Section office and got out our P-38s (little folding can openers, Army issue) and the hot plate and water heaters and fixed what we got from the PX for lunch.

    I used to work at a warehouse and we had a large family of chipmonks that would show up when the next door neighbor tossed out the more than day-old bread that they sold (bakery). Then a Vietnamese restarant moved in on the other side of us. After that the family of squirrels seemed to become smaller and smaller, until they never came around anymore.

    Of course, I never ate in the restarant, because I always saw the women taking a break in the alley we all shared and I always saw them rubbing their feet because they were on them all the time. Made me wonder if they ever washed their hands after break.

    Often they would take a tray of something out in the alley and set it in the sun to dry. Some of us had the idea to whiz in a jar and then take a large object that would hide the tray from the propritors eyes as we walked by, and someone would liberally sprinkle the drying food items with the “liquid” from the jar.

    They seemed so ignorant of American cleanliness!! When they first arrived they would let the greasy water and stuff just run out in the alley and go down the hole in the middle. They did not realize that that hole emptied into the street and the street was becoming wet and slippery, so much so that an accident occured where a car slid on the gunk and slid into another car, causing a serious accident. The Vietnaese people got sued by the victims of the accident for not showing proper disposal of the used grease.

    Holy CARP! I am beginning to look like a Joe Allen Know-it-all tirade.

    Sorry ‘bout that!

    Ya know?

    I went to New Orleans with a few friends about 8-9 years ago. Between parades we would grab something quick to eat if parades were scheduled close in time. One day we went to a nearby chinese street vendor trailer. Almost everyone got the duck special as it was ready and quick. One of my friends wondered outloud if it was really duck. I quickly pointed out the complete absence of pigeons in the area. It’s funny how some people lose their appetites, and some just keep eating.
    Another time i ate a pile of frog legs before someone told me they weren’t chicken wings. they really do look and tast like chicken. I finished what i had but just couldn’t bring my self to get more.
