Swedish Horse Balls, South African Donkey burgers and Water Buffalo Sausage everywhere but the U.S.

29. I'm used to seeing non standard meats in international groceries

and blew all my fuses over those. There is all sort of frozen critter out there in US markets and the stipulation is that it has to be labeled correctly.

Now about those meatballs: it would make more sense to have a kitchen set up in the US using meat from US providers instead of European, the other ingredients coming from Europe. European providers were the ones caught red hoofed.

That isn't to say an unscrupulous jobber here and there doesn't have burger that whinnies. It means the main slaughterhouses where living animals go in through one gate and leave at the other end as packaged steaks and burgers use the critters they're set up to slaughter and butcher. The line moves fast enough that slipping an occasional horse in there would be dangerous to both equipment and workers and the last thing they want is for the disassembly line to stop.
