Thread Name: Irish feeding the English horsemeat.
Subject: RE: Irish feeding the English horsemeat.
'Family members have made a career trucking horse from Nebraska to Canada for quick slaughter and immediate loading onto aircraft to Belgium, Netherlands, and France.'

I understand slaughtering horses is illegal in the US so horses get sent to Canada and Mexico to be disposed of.

American horses are so full of medication they're considered toxic by EU standards and it;'sa worry US horsemeat enters the food trade this way.
