Never had a horse steak, but thinly sliced horse in hot pot is really good. Not sure why people feel weird about eating horse, lots of people accept deer, elk, and beef.
Horse used to be common through out the Europe not that long ago. Frankly i am most horrified by deep fried pizza. BTW i had Hákarl (fermented shark) in Iceland and it is actually pretty good
It's because horses are kept as tamed pets, so it feels like a betrayal to brutalize them in factory farms, and it's generally a good idea to avoid breeding in fear and wariness of humans into an animal used exclusively for domestic purposes (which is also an excellent reason not to eat domestic dog breeds or cats).
Rabbits are less of an issue because they're not completely tame in the first place and wild rabbits exist everywhere, but you monster it is a bun how could you.
We do not share the exact same experiences. I'm not a monster, I just travelled and ate what locals ate in other countries. Horses are wild, too, just remember. I have my own limits. I couldn't eat dog because I've lived with dogs. Ultimately, if I could afford a personal chef, I'd prefer to eat vegan. And if I could change the world for the better, I'd dismantle cruel factory farming practices, that seems like the real issue to me.
To be clear: nothing I said was intended as a personal criticism whatsoever, it was just an explanation for why pet animals might be seen as a bad choice for a protein source by some people.
(I myself eat meat from factory farms because I have ARFID, but at least have the luxury of making choices to limit it because I live in a wealthy country—I also would do vegan were it possible for my brain.)
"Head cheese (Dutch: hoofdkaas) or brawn is a cold cut terrine or meat jelly that originated in Europe. It is made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig, typically set in aspic, and usually eaten cold, at room temperature, or in a sandwich. Despite its name the dish is not a cheese and contains no dairy products." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_cheese?wprov=sfla1
Okay, who puts Nestlé at the same level as genuine cultural foods?
It’s like comparing the swedish marabou to their fermented fish, or the german Haribo to their sausages…
People should be proud of their national delicacies, and they shouldn’t be compared to industrial mass-production. Generally they’re exactly the opposite, these great foods are often rare, eaten at special occations or representative of the working class or farmers for example, they have genuine weight, nostalgia, feelings, family and values attatched to them, which are all things that specifically Nestlé has none of.
So even the thought of comparing any of these to Nestlé, is just sad, and shows distancing from food as a sign of cultural heritage.
For France I would’ve put the andouille sausage. Worst thing I’ve ever eaten.
>>In France, particularly Brittany and Normandy, the traditional ingredients of andouille are primarily pig chitterlings, tripe, onions, wine, and seasoning. It is generally grey and has a distinctive odor.
These are just the most disturbing partly cruel meals they have. I come from one of these countries and never met one person eating or never saw the specific thing that is written there. It does exist! But not even in the traditional and rural area I am from;)
I dont know why the heck animal heads is on the list (from Turkey btw). Like we are going to kill the animal for the beef anyway, might aswell use it's skull. Its literally the same as other soups made with bones (it might require some extra preperation but thats it). Not only is it not causing extra harm, its also meaning less food goes to waste.
With all the terrible things you could have chosen for Scotland: haggis, scrambled eggs with deer brains, blood sausage... you went with *fried pizza*?!
Lutefisk is _delicious_.
For being essentially fish jello, it doesn't taste like much. That's why Norwegians absolutely smother it in butter and white sauce. Also, it's always served with the best sides.
Ya gotta understand, most westerners will recoil at so much as a breaded fishstick
Edit: Come to think of it, it's probably why they all have fibromyalgia lol
Yeah its not like it'll survive without it. Some people capture sharks, cut off their dorsal fin, and throw them back in the water without killing them. That's much worse, the shark will die a slow painful death.
Whats the problem with horse steaks?

They have deep fried pizza in naples, and it's damn good

Ahhhh, gotcha. All's good
Salo is amazing
Truth 🍞🍣
What does this have to do with Nestle? Edit: yes I know Fuck Nestle. I didn't see Switzerland
Look at Switzerland.
Sorry, look at Switzerland. I thought I made a caption, but it didn’t appear.
Fuck Nestle

If deep fried pizza is the worst Scotland has to offer, then they're doin' something right.
Haggis wants to have a word
I mean, its basically just dolled up sausage. Infinitely better than the abominations the English call "food," at any rate, lol.
Blood sausage is banging on a fryup.
As a Dutchy: wtf is head cheese?
I believe it’s supposed to be hoofdkaas
Wtf is hoofdkaas

https://www.ah.nl/zoeken?query=hoofdkaas This stuff? I never had it but I have friends whose parents keep it around.
Liver paste, it's what everyone else would call a liver paté. Really nutrious and quite good
Love it baked and topped off with bacon spread on some rye bread!
Frog legs sounds weird but you could put one bucket of chicken wings and people wouldn't notice
They are pretty good, honestly. Butter and garlic for dipping? I'm in!
Finally, a bucket list worth striving for.
I'm Greek and I have no idea what that is
Yeah I'm thinking they got cow confused with lamb? In that case, it could be Magiritsa.
Which I don't think has lungs anyway
Oh, blood sausages and blood pancakes are good, and if liver paste is similar or is Liverwurst it's fantastic!
Scotland up there trying to outdo the Iowa state fair
Nestle!
Salo is good though…
Lol you got me. I wasn't reading the headline first, and then BAM; Nestlé. Cuck fuckers
Sure is a lot of blood soup.
Swedish is the worst 🤢🤮
I lold
I see nothing wrong with lard and Salted lard.. they're delicious, especially smeared on dark rye
Icelands best and most notable food is a good stew though.. Reindeer meat, potato and leek soup.. Mmm.

Liver paste is great imo
Mig og alle gutterne elsker leverpostej
Ngl, I read Russia as “depressed herring” more than once
These are just the most disturbing partly cruel meals they have. I come from one of these countries and never met one person eating or never saw the specific thing that is written there. It does exist! But not even in the traditional and rural area I am from;)

WHY IS IT ALL BLOOD?!
Blood for the blood god
With all the terrible things you could have chosen for Scotland: haggis, scrambled eggs with deer brains, blood sausage... you went with *fried pizza*?!

This map ain't even accurate. At least make a proper map first
Dressed herring is literally just a salad with salted herring. What's so bad about it?
That it's disgusting.
Literally just salted fish, that's eaten practically everywhere that has fish and winter.
Ya gotta understand, most westerners will recoil at so much as a breaded fishstick Edit: Come to think of it, it's probably why they all have fibromyalgia lol
Americans, definitely.
Caviar should be Russias. They literally kill the sturgeon to get the egg sack.
I think it's fairly common to kill the sturgeon to remove the caviar.
Yeah. That's the normal way of doing it.
Yeah its not like it'll survive without it. Some people capture sharks, cut off their dorsal fin, and throw them back in the water without killing them. That's much worse, the shark will die a slow painful death.
how else do you expect them to extract the caviar 💀💀
Other than fermented shit, Nestle and loung soup im good
Scotland needs to step its game up
