The facts: There is one slaughter house that kills and processes horses for human consumption in the United States. it is owned by a Belgium and French company. The USDA recorded over 55,000 horses inspected for human consumption last year alone. Our horse meat is a delicacy in Europe, selling for $15.00 a pound. Most of the horses in the slaughter house were privately owned. Some were race horses while others were once someone’s companion or pet. |
