best thing to ever grace buzzfeed.

I am happy to see at least there are a FEW people with a heart here. After seeing LOL after LOL and hearts i was truly beginning to wonder what kind of SICK idiots use Buzzfeed!!! Ugh!!! So dissapointing! We're talking about the lives of living, breathing animals NOT a silly YouTube video!!!!

Yeah umm treat your kids to a My Little Pony burger!!

I am really excited for new horse burgers

You are an idiot.

buncha dumbasses. you really think people are going to start raising horses for slaughter? here is what happens to old horses now. they're sent to mexico or canada to be slaughtered. all this does is allow the slaughter to take place on us soil. no extra horses are going to die because of this.

Actually… Horses now or days have next to no function in America. A lot of horses get bought as ponies for little kids and end up being put in miserable situations because the kid grows out of it or people can't afford it.  Then the horses often starve to death or to the point that they are beyond repair.  Eating a horse is little next to no different than eating a cow or a deer or a goat. We've just decided that they're the pretty animals. But I honestly don't see a problem with it. I'd rather a horse be eaten than starved to death and abused.  As long as it's humanly done, I don't give a fuuuu…

Stick to the games section.

Ok, so here is the issue, horses are really expensive to take care of, and often times once they become old or unsound it is hard for people to justify taking care of them when they have other bills to pay. Also, in this recession, people are increasingly unable to pay for their horse's feed and vet bills and the horses suffer because of this. Horse rescues have been absolutely flooded since slaughterhouses were banned in the US, and frequently they simply don't have enough resources to take in every horse that comes their way. Im not saying that it is a nice option, but it is way more humane than letting them starve to death, which is what is happening now.

Wouldn't horse meat be all tough and gamey? Why do people want to eat it?

Finally, the real Jack Shepherd emerges.

Jack Shepherd = My new favorite BF Editor. These pasture ornaments have had it too good for too long. If you have never cleaned out a horse stall you don't know the horrors of these giant meatbags.

They taste good. A sweet form of beef.
