Eating horse is allowed in "dire straights". It is not recommended to eat horse meat because horses are very noble and useful animals. It is your ride in the "Wild West". He will take care of you and get you back home when you need it.mojo84 wrote:Speaking of that, why do we eat cow but not horse?
Yeah, cows just stare at you all creepy-like... slowly chewing their cud... <shudder>Beiruty wrote:Eating horse is allowed in "dire straights".

Sushi actually means with rice. Sashimi is raw fish only.mojo84 wrote:RottenApple wrote:You're making a common assumption; that sushi is raw fish. Sushi may indeed be raw fish, but it is more often, in America at least, smoked. In this case, I cold smoked the salmon (wild caught Alaskan) over a 4 hour period.mojo84 wrote:We cut up bait quite often when we go fishing.
I'm actually starting to like some sushi. However, still not excited about eating raw fish though. If you were to grill it before wrapping it in the rice, then we would be talking good food.
Interesting. I was unaware the fish in some sushi is cooked or smoked. Thanks for the info. That may make it easier for me to eat it. I like the flavors but I just have a little hang up about raw fish.
Very good job. It looks much better than my first ... second ... and third attempt.RottenApple wrote:Ok. Totally (and I mean TOTALLY) not firearm/CHL related, but I made sushi for dinner tonight. Futamaki (fat sushi) made with salmon, avacado, & cream cheese. This was only my 3rd attempt at making sushi.
FYI, the total on this came out to less than $20.

Texas housed two of the last horse slaughterhouses in the US. Horses are such different animals than cows on a cognitive level. People in the states were not for eating them. Other countries, however...Oldgringo wrote:You don't?mojo84 wrote:Speaking of that, why do we eat cow but not horse?
