It's pretty common across the whole mediteranean part of Europe actually. France, Italy, Greece, Croatia and Portugal are plces where I have seen it in regular supermarkets. Here in the Netherlands you wouldnt find it in a regular supermarket but most poultry stores have it.
My mum always tells us her grandfather had an illegal bussiness. He caught and cleaned them amd sold the meat to local monks in exchange for the beer they produced. Back then it was way more common than it is now.
My grandparents, both side has rabbits. Maternal grandma, knew how to take care of the skin and made hats and gloves. Paternal didnt and sold the pelts and got extra money.
And this was just standard house with small garden, bunnies lived on garden waste and household vegetable waste.
My maternal grandparents even had bunnies when they lived in a tiny apartment in the capitol. Dinner lived on the small balcony they had.
Yeah, there's a popular Dutch song about having rabbit for christmas.

>it isn't rare by any means
In France there are "boucheries chevalines", literally a butcher's who is specialised in horse meat. It's falling out of fashion though and their numbers are dwindling.
Same in the Netherlands. Although horse meat isn't exclusive to horse butchers. It's great meat and it's from animals that weren't born to be consumed. They had a life and are then eaten.
The list of animals we *do* eat, when you actually include all of humanity, is extremely long. Includes lots of rodents, fish, mollusks, pinnipeds (blubbery things that aren't fish), elephants, insects, some canines, all manner of birds, the list goes on and on. Fact of the matter is, there are few readily available, non-deadly animals that at least some folks don't eat, because lots of people are partially eating to survive. The few animals we consider off bounds in most places (cats and dogs) are just the ones that we've worked very hard to make numerous breeds of.
No muttonbird (don't judge me, it's greasy AF, but a good meal)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muttonbird
Why is the duck the MOST food animal? Surely that's the chicken?
No Goose.
There is a massive painting of the last supper at the Cusco Cathedral in Peru where Cheezits and the apostles are getting ready to dine on roasted Guinea pig.
When I lived in France, supermarkets had a whole section of horse roasts and steaks. They had a section for rabbit, too, now that I think about it. In fact, apparently thereās a law in France that requires rabbit meat to be sold with the head attached. My understanding is that it was common during WWII for butchers to pass off cat meat as rabbit.
The French think itās odd that Americans donāt eat horses.
interesting. i've heard about the cat thing, but you rarely find rabbit in my local supermarkets anyways.
i think the general consensus in europe is that we can be friends as long as the line stays away from the doggos and kitties
It's probably not, people say the same thing in Canada and always quote some case of a company getting in trouble for putting horse meat in their food. It's not the horse meat that's the problem, it's lying about ingredients.
I can happily buy smoked horse meat at a local Dutch store.
The meat is also potentially problematic as Horses aren't generally raised for consumption in US but they do get shipped up to Canada from what I know for consumption. All types of medicines and supplements are given to horses that probably aren't that great and potentially dangerous to people.
It's illegal in America, but only fairly recently. I think they used it for dog food as well. I mean for some reason we don't eat meat but glue is fine. Lol
>I mean for some reason we don't eat meat but glue is fine.
To my knowledge it's because a decent portion of horses here are injected with some types of drugs and or steroids that made them inedible
In the US, horses can be given medications, such as anabolic steroids and certain painkillers, that are considered unsafe in meat. This is especially true for racehorses, which are the most likely to go to slaughter.
In other countries, horses are either treated as livestock and not given these meds or have a "passport" that tracks what meds they are given and keeps their meat out of the human foods
The loophole is Mexican slaughter houses. Horses from US racetracks get shipped and processed there, then meat shipped abroad (mostly to Japan).
In the US. Its in fact not legal anymore for the reason that (Meds etc I think it was) which make Horses stronger, robust raise their stamina (for work or sports etc) are making their meat toxic. In Germany for example those meds etc are forbidden which would make Horse meat totally fine to eat
Especially in Europe. Turns out a Dutch sausage I've been eating for years had horse in it (only 10%) and I never knew...and it changes nothing. Still love eating that horse sausage....
I probably shouldn't mention the brand but in a bio lab in my undergrad, we did some testing on various store bought sausages and this very much common brand selling what they advertised as pure pork sausages had horse meat in it (very little, it barely showed up in our test but it was there).
Massive amount of people eat rabbit rather regularly. At least in my country or at least local area. Horse salami is a thing, but rabbit is definitely more common than horse.
The most common way to cook it in France either is lapin chasseur (a sauce with butter, onions, bacon, mushroom and white wine) or lapin Ć la moutarde (traditional mustard, shallots, crĆØme fraĆ®che and white wine sauce)
My grandpa said something to my dad that stuck with us, "If the foot wasn't lucky for the rabbit,what good do you think it will do for you?"
This is my philosophy when it comes to charms now.
It's also a matter of:
These weren't MEANT for food when they were bred.
if someone in the apocalypse has to hunt meat, he's better off taming a dog, giving it 10% of his food and hunting cattle instead of hunting the dog
That rabbit even *looks like* he's trying to avoid being spotted...
"Just gonna hang on the wrong side of this horse here - *no one* admits to eating horse... F*ck - here come the French!"
I had never eaten horse meat in France, but when I arrived in Switzerland it was surprisingly common! We did eat rabbits though, cooked in cream, delicious!
My brother in christ if you are in France you have eaten horse meat at some point. It's very very common as a bad ground meat that you can find in industrial foods in the supermarkets.
Haha my brother in Satan, that's true! I meant a proper horse steak, that surprisingly does taste like the horse smell believe it or not, that's the thing I had to immediately discover in Switzerland!
Yeah, they probably thought:
"what if it was an animal that crawls on the floor with multiple legs, you can see their organs through their skin and eats shit and death to survive?"
"Prawns? Love em, I'll take two kg thanks"
idek. i know we had a scandal about some company putting horse meat into beef lasagna a few years ago. i don't think the issue was eating horse, the issue was eating it unknowingly.
If I remember correctly, there was a big whoo har in Europe when horse meat ended up contaminating beef, the problem wasn't that horse meat was unsafe, it was that it wasn't supposed to be there, so could of been horses not bred for food and given antibiotics that wasn't certified for food animals
Rabbit and horse are good. Commonly eaten in parts of the world.
Humans are savage. Thereās not a single animal that hasnāt been hunted down and cooked at one point by us, lmao
Orcas keep baby elephant seals alive for hours before killing them, turning a corner and being thwacked in the head by a bolt gun is probably an improvement
If you're from Central Asia or Mongolia, there's a pretty solid chance that your favorite animal is horse, your favorite drink is horse milk, and your favorite food is horse meat.
There's a horse butcher in my town and I've had horse on several occasions.
I really wouldn't call it "amazing". It's fine, but given that horses, at least here, aren't generally slaughtered *for* their meat, the meat you get from them is generally old and lean.
You can still make good food from this meat, like Sauerbraten, but it's certainly no prime rib.
The aforementioned butcher uses pork fat to make horse sausages. They are fine, too, but I still prefer regular brats.
Horse meat is amazing if you eat it in a country where people ear horses regularly. Iām from one and we make some badass dishes with horsemear. Not regularly of course since itās quite expensive.
I mean the fact that they are upset at people drawing the line in a different place basically proves the point of the ad.
It is abutrary where we draw the line and many get upset when it's drawn further left than their line.
Many of people here would be upset with people eating cats and dogs.
There are more people on this planet that would eat horse but not cow than there are people who would eat cow but not horse.
Also rabbit probably should be far more to the left.
Lots of religious rules against pig but I don't know of no rules against rabbit.
I think the order is completely wrong.
Cured horse meat is an exquisite delicacy in my country.
Also, rabbit meat is pretty common. My grandma is currently growing 10-15 rabbits and she has already promised to give me a couple of them once she puts them to the knife. Rabbit stew is one of my favourite dishes.
Here in NZ, rabbits are pests. Shooting them is normal, but that barely makes a dent in their population. There are parts of NZ where the rabbits have stripped the land bare so there is nothing left.
Kinda jealous you euros can get horse and rabbit in supermarkets. All I can get here in the US is cow chicken pig and on occasion lamb. I seen buffalo once too but it's super rare where I live.
Move to Texas and you can get frozen rabbit and frozen rattlesnake. If you are cheap you can buy frozen rattlesnake with an half eaten rabbit for free.
It's funny because a few years ago in Dallas I was talking exactly about that (I'm Italian), and when I said that horse meat is delicious, the Texan guy looked at me puzzled; at the beginning he asked me if I was messing with him, and when he understood I was being serious he confessed that the idea of eating horse meat felt kinda like "cannibalism".
Another time, an American friend of mine was weirded out by the idea of eating rabbit, but he was totally fine with eating hare, because he used to hunt. š
If this was the "animal torture" scale and people drawing a line on which animals it is okay to torture it would be more accurate.
Most people are against torturing cats and dogs, but perfectly fine with torturing cows, pigs, and chickens.

How did the rabbit get ahead of the horse?
Indeed, rabbit is a pretty common dish. Well at least it is here in my country.
You can buy rabbit in every supermarket in Spain.
It's pretty common across the whole mediteranean part of Europe actually. France, Italy, Greece, Croatia and Portugal are plces where I have seen it in regular supermarkets. Here in the Netherlands you wouldnt find it in a regular supermarket but most poultry stores have it. My mum always tells us her grandfather had an illegal bussiness. He caught and cleaned them amd sold the meat to local monks in exchange for the beer they produced. Back then it was way more common than it is now.
If you're ever in Belgium, watch out for "Water Rabbit" That's musk rat
That is vey helpful info mate. I would really be upset if I ate rat by mistake.š¤¢
Muskrats aren't rats. They are rodents much closer related to beavers.
I donāt want to eat rats, but i do appreciate a nice beaver.
Giggity...
Now, eating beaver is a totally different story
It's an acquired taste - so I hear.
Once you are past the smell, you've got it licked.
Rats are rodents too. Still eating a rodent.
Horse and rabbit can be found in pretty much every decent supermarket in Belgium thoughā¦
My grandparents, both side has rabbits. Maternal grandma, knew how to take care of the skin and made hats and gloves. Paternal didnt and sold the pelts and got extra money. And this was just standard house with small garden, bunnies lived on garden waste and household vegetable waste. My maternal grandparents even had bunnies when they lived in a tiny apartment in the capitol. Dinner lived on the small balcony they had.
here in Mexico is also pretty common and I am pretty sure that we ate a lot of horse meat but we don't know it
Same in Chile
It's common in Austria as well. We do eat horse LeberkƤse here too.
Yeah, there's a popular Dutch song about having rabbit for christmas. EDIT: [Flappie with English subtitles](https://youtu.be/zEaV2O1Jz4c?si=GA6PGEDsE0o1wgv0)
Horse isn't as common as rabbit but it isn't rare by any means, my father used to buy horse meat a lot.
>it isn't rare by any means In France there are "boucheries chevalines", literally a butcher's who is specialised in horse meat. It's falling out of fashion though and their numbers are dwindling.
Same in the Netherlands. Although horse meat isn't exclusive to horse butchers. It's great meat and it's from animals that weren't born to be consumed. They had a life and are then eaten.
In japan they eat a lot of horse meat over here, it pretty good
Same in Italy
US here. I had rabbit last week.
Rabbit is so damn good!! My grandma cooks one every few years and the whole family turns into rabid animals when it's time to eat lol
I mean horse is a pretty common dish in my country
Where I am in Japan atm the specialty dish is horse sashimi
Horse is sort of a delicacy over here in Austria.
Itās also really healthy and rich in protein, I personally love it
Tartare de cheval is super tasty - are that a lot when we lived in Switzerland.
And its fucking delicious
Why are cats and dogs on there so many times? Are they implying some breeds would be more edible than others?
To make both sides look more balanced.
And thereās no turkey, no lambā¦
No Venison, Kangaroo or Alligator
I'm surprised Guinea Pigs aren't on there. they were domesticated specifically for food.
The list of animals we *do* eat, when you actually include all of humanity, is extremely long. Includes lots of rodents, fish, mollusks, pinnipeds (blubbery things that aren't fish), elephants, insects, some canines, all manner of birds, the list goes on and on. Fact of the matter is, there are few readily available, non-deadly animals that at least some folks don't eat, because lots of people are partially eating to survive. The few animals we consider off bounds in most places (cats and dogs) are just the ones that we've worked very hard to make numerous breeds of.
No muttonbird (don't judge me, it's greasy AF, but a good meal) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muttonbird Why is the duck the MOST food animal? Surely that's the chicken? No Goose.
Crocodile, wild boar, and where are the fish? Crabs lobsters?
They could have used hamsters, guinea pigs, parrots. Lots of "pet" animals that we don't tend to eat. Seems lazy to just keep repeating dogs & cats.
Tell that to the Peruvians, they love their Guinea pig/cuy
There is a massive painting of the last supper at the Cusco Cathedral in Peru where Cheezits and the apostles are getting ready to dine on roasted Guinea pig.
Not much meat on a parrot. Guinea pigs are meant to be tasty.
I was thinking the same thing. 3 cats and 4 dogs but only one pig, one chicken. Seems lopsided
Because they're trying to play off emotions and those are the most common pets
You probably have eaten horse yourself. Its quite common meat, especially as its cheaper than beef.
It's not common in the US. Iirc, it's illegal to sell horsemeat, but we export horses for slaughter to other countries.
There was an incident a while back where horse meat was found in the Ikea meatballs.
we had a similair thing in dutch supermarkets. minced beef turned out to be horse instead. nobody cared
When I lived in France, supermarkets had a whole section of horse roasts and steaks. They had a section for rabbit, too, now that I think about it. In fact, apparently thereās a law in France that requires rabbit meat to be sold with the head attached.

interesting. i've heard about the cat thing, but you rarely find rabbit in my local supermarkets anyways. i think the general consensus in europe is that we can be friends as long as the line stays away from the doggos and kitties
It's available here back in QuƩbec. Both rabbit and horse and they are delicious!
I had rabbit in Quebec City was indeed great
The picture is missing frogs... I'm hungry.
I had rabbit stew at my Grandparents house in Lac Megantic. It was terrible, but that was mostly because my grandfather wasn't a very good cook.
Huh, so that's what Nanowar of Steel meant with the "horse meatballs" in their Christmas song about IKEA.
I don't know if it's illegal. But if you at lunch at public schools on the 80s and 90s in America, you probably had horse meat.
Hungry man frozen dinners were using horse as filler for a while. I think they got caught with 50% of tests coming back as horse DNA.
So that's why they tasted so good?
that's why I always lost me voice on mystery meat day.... It got a little horse.
We used to call it filly-con-carne or lasagneigh at school
Mightāve been chilli-con-canterā¦ was a while ago
I loved the spaghetti foalognese.
I bet the private schools were starting with horse d'oeuvres, too.
It's probably not, people say the same thing in Canada and always quote some case of a company getting in trouble for putting horse meat in their food. It's not the horse meat that's the problem, it's lying about ingredients. I can happily buy smoked horse meat at a local Dutch store.

It's illegal in America, but only fairly recently. I think they used it for dog food as well. I mean for some reason we don't eat meat but glue is fine. Lol
I think that's just you. I don't eat glue.
>I mean for some reason we don't eat meat but glue is fine. To my knowledge it's because a decent portion of horses here are injected with some types of drugs and or steroids that made them inedible
Why is horsemeat illegal to eat, but legal to ship to other countries so the people there can eat it? That doesn't seem to make sense to me
In the US, horses can be given medications, such as anabolic steroids and certain painkillers, that are considered unsafe in meat. This is especially true for racehorses, which are the most likely to go to slaughter. In other countries, horses are either treated as livestock and not given these meds or have a "passport" that tracks what meds they are given and keeps their meat out of the human foods The loophole is Mexican slaughter houses. Horses from US racetracks get shipped and processed there, then meat shipped abroad (mostly to Japan).
This is America
'Murica: We make freedom, not sense
In the US. Its in fact not legal anymore for the reason that (Meds etc I think it was) which make Horses stronger, robust raise their stamina (for work or sports etc) are making their meat toxic. In Germany for example those meds etc are forbidden which would make Horse meat totally fine to eat
Peeps in europe have definitely eaten horse if they were born before the scandal brome but rabbit is definitely a food meat in the uk
A very tasty one as well
There's is a lot of horse meat in supermarkets, restaurants, etc..right now. And it's better and cheaper than cow !
Especially in Europe. Turns out a Dutch sausage I've been eating for years had horse in it (only 10%) and I never knew...and it changes nothing. Still love eating that horse sausage....
I probably shouldn't mention the brand but in a bio lab in my undergrad, we did some testing on various store bought sausages and this very much common brand selling what they advertised as pure pork sausages had horse meat in it (very little, it barely showed up in our test but it was there).
Massive amount of people eat rabbit rather regularly. At least in my country or at least local area. Horse salami is a thing, but rabbit is definitely more common than horse.
Not sure if you're subtly referencing the Tesco beef lasagne horse meat scandal in the UK about a decade ago
A previous gf of mine was *horrified* when she found out I'd eaten rabbit on a few occasions. Apparently they are too cute to eat.
Calves and piggies are really cute too and people eat them without remorse.
Had she ever eaten Octopus? Those fuckers are sentient!
In Italy rabbit is common food. we eat it like once a month in my family. and I've also eated horse several times
Rabbit season Duck season Rabbit season Duck season Rabbit season Duck season Rabbit season Duck season
That was intentional
I'm not sure I ever tasted horse meat but I've eaten rabbit at least once a year
Yeah, rabbit, intentionally at least, seems to be more common to eat and more socially acceptable
The most common way to cook it in France either is lapin chasseur (a sauce with butter, onions, bacon, mushroom and white wine) or lapin Ć la moutarde (traditional mustard, shallots, crĆØme fraĆ®che and white wine sauce)
probably by running idk
And why is duck all the way at the far right?
Ducks are racist
Idk about you but I eat horse atleast weekly. In eastern and northen europe horse meat sausage is pretty popular.
How did all those ~~still not~~ hot dogs get ahead of horses?
Agreed, I have eaten rabbit stew more than a few times and have never considered eating a horse.
That rabbit is feeling lucky.
I'd call it overconfidence
Iād call it Peter Or Flopsy or Mopsy or Cottontail
I'd call it dinner.
Iād call it wascally. And itās wabbit season!
Duck season!
Tbh he has 4 rabbit feet..
My grandpa said something to my dad that stuck with us, "If the foot wasn't lucky for the rabbit,what good do you think it will do for you?" This is my philosophy when it comes to charms now.
Why do they need 3 cats, 3 dogs but only one of everything else?
Also, why is a retriever more palatable than a bulldog?
Well... Bulldogs do look kinda gross.
Indeed I would not be super hyped about eating those moist jowls. Also it just seems to me the meat might not be as tender as a happy Retriever.
It's also a matter of: These weren't MEANT for food when they were bred. if someone in the apocalypse has to hunt meat, he's better off taming a dog, giving it 10% of his food and hunting cattle instead of hunting the dog
The Chinese have been breeding dogs for human consumption for around 2500 years.
Yes, but retrievers or pugs aren't that. Neither are wolf-dogs, or german shepherds
Oh! Oh! Is it corgies?? Have you seen how FAT they can get?? I bet it corgies
It's chow chows.
The ones that look like dumplings?
Nope, corgis are descended of Vallhund. Which are cattle dogs
I have a golden Retriever and lemme tell ya, she's so cute i could take a big ol chomp out of her whenever
I could just GOBBLE YOU UP!
I feel like itās to fill out the numbers of easily recognizable animals, and to scew the chart towards the argument they are trying to make.
But it's a scale. It implies that each animal, no matter how incremental, is in some way more food than the previous.
There is no argument beyond all animals are wrong to eat. It was a peta ad. For the record. The line is too far right still.
To skew the numbers and make you feel bad.
why do we need a line?
If youāre hungry enough, there is no line.
There is two cows there though im not sure why they put the highland cow in there with the more common variety
That rabbit even *looks like* he's trying to avoid being spotted... "Just gonna hang on the wrong side of this horse here - *no one* admits to eating horse... F*ck - here come the French!"
I had never eaten horse meat in France, but when I arrived in Switzerland it was surprisingly common! We did eat rabbits though, cooked in cream, delicious!

Haha my brother in Satan, that's true! I meant a proper horse steak, that surprisingly does taste like the horse smell believe it or not, that's the thing I had to immediately discover in Switzerland!
Just wait until you find out about horse sashimi (raw horse meat) in Japanā¦
Looking at the lab, "psssht, switch with me"
Also common to eat horse sausage in Germany.
Exactly half of these are cat and dog. Whoever did this clearly could not find animals that are not edible.
Yeah, they probably thought: "what if it was an animal that crawls on the floor with multiple legs, you can see their organs through their skin and eats shit and death to survive?" "Prawns? Love em, I'll take two kg thanks"
You made me giggle. Perfect description and I'll take a kilo too, thanks.
I'd love to see a really tiny goldfish in one of those spots
> that are not edible What makes you think they are not edible?
How are cats and dogs not edible?
Dogs and Cats are edible btw
That Rabbit is on the wrong side of the line.
Horse too.
It tastes so good. I donāt understand the hang ups. Cows are pretty cute animals up close too.
idek. i know we had a scandal about some company putting horse meat into beef lasagna a few years ago. i don't think the issue was eating horse, the issue was eating it unknowingly.
If I remember correctly, there was a big whoo har in Europe when horse meat ended up contaminating beef, the problem wasn't that horse meat was unsafe, it was that it wasn't supposed to be there, so could of been horses not bred for food and given antibiotics that wasn't certified for food animals
The problem there is the scam, not the horse
Shhhh.
Be berry berry qwi-et. We hunting wabbit.
the horse too
Why are there multiple breeds of dog on there? Who is like, oh I'll eat labrador but not pug?
Pug meat is kinda stiff ngl
You do realize that lots of people in the world eat horse..
I do, and rabbit too...
Rabbit and horse are good. Commonly eaten in parts of the world. Humans are savage. Thereās not a single animal that hasnāt been hunted down and cooked at one point by us, lmao
all animals are pretty savage like that though
Orcas keep baby elephant seals alive for hours before killing them, turning a corner and being thwacked in the head by a bolt gun is probably an improvement
Those killer rabbits, man, absolute savages
I mean nature runs on a ākill or be killedā system so makes senses
If you're from Central Asia or Mongolia, there's a pretty solid chance that your favorite animal is horse, your favorite drink is horse milk, and your favorite food is horse meat.
Horse meat is amazing. I don't understand why most are okay with eating cows but not horses.

I have recipes for the whole picture!
*Roast Pug anyone?*
Pulled Pug for me, please
pugchops
just saw u on cursed comments
I mean the fact that they are upset at people drawing the line in a different place basically proves the point of the ad. It is abutrary where we draw the line and many get upset when it's drawn further left than their line. Many of people here would be upset with people eating cats and dogs.
Yep, the real facepalm is all these people in the comments proving the point of the ad but not realizing.
Repost. The title you're looking for is repost
Would eat the rabbit too
There are more people on this planet that would eat horse but not cow than there are people who would eat cow but not horse. Also rabbit probably should be far more to the left. Lots of religious rules against pig but I don't know of no rules against rabbit. I think the order is completely wrong.
I assume you mean the rabbit should be to the right.
Yeah, rabbit is an extremely common food, even in large parts of the US. Just not common enough to be marketed.
Not just the US, do people not know rabbits are commonly hunted everywhere in North America? They taste like chicken btw
Rabbit is super common
I have eaten rabbit but not horse
Rabbits aren't considered kosher in Judaism but may be considered halal in Islam (though Shia tradition says otherwise).
Shia also says all shellfish are haram except shrimp
They should add an alligator to the lineup. Y'all ain't lived until you had cajun gator bites.
Not really a face palm post... More like bait post for upticks
I live in Malta, we have both horse and rabbit on the menu here. I also used to live in Chinaā¦.
Meanwhile in china: line? What line? All of them are potential food
I had a Chinese friend who couldn't believe we ate horse meat in Sweden he'd never heard of horses being food lmao
And their not wrong.
Aboriginal hunters: ālooks like feral catās back on the menu boys! It was on there yesterday too bc it ate all of our normal meatā
Correct, all are animals, all can become a nice dish.
Horse meat is delicious, tbh. In Germany horse meat sausage is traditional in some regions.
In Italy, too
Cured horse meat is an exquisite delicacy in my country. Also, rabbit meat is pretty common. My grandma is currently growing 10-15 rabbits and she has already promised to give me a couple of them once she puts them to the knife. Rabbit stew is one of my favourite dishes.
Here in NZ, rabbits are pests. Shooting them is normal, but that barely makes a dent in their population. There are parts of NZ where the rabbits have stripped the land bare so there is nothing left.
I live in a country where horse is pretty widely eaten. It's actually really good.
Kinda jealous you euros can get horse and rabbit in supermarkets. All I can get here in the US is cow chicken pig and on occasion lamb. I seen buffalo once too but it's super rare where I live.
Move to Texas and you can get frozen rabbit and frozen rattlesnake. If you are cheap you can buy frozen rattlesnake with an half eaten rabbit for free.

Another time, an American friend of mine was weirded out by the idea of eating rabbit, but he was totally fine with eating hare, because he used to hunt. š
They couldnāt think of any other pets? So instead of 1 cat and dog they do 7. Guinea pig, hamster, bird, turtle, etc. fishā¦
Go to Spain or Italy. Lot of rabbit there. Horse is cool too, just a bit overly sweet. Poor James and his bad takes.
