I haven't had any knowingly, but recently the USDA approved a slaughterhouse for horsemeat, so it will be available in butcher shops soon if it isn't already.
I can't say I'll be looking for it. I am no fan of gamey meats and I was even nervous about trying buffalo. That tastes pretty good, but I like beef better.
Call me anything you like, but I want no part of mutton or goat. Even lamb is revolting unless it is very well done.

Even though it is once again legal to slaughter horses for meat, the resulting meat is still not allowed to be sold for human consumption domestically. At this point, it is used to make pet food or exported.
Up until very recently it was illegal to sell horse meat for human consumption in the USA. However there was also a pretty big black market for horse meat and from time to time people would find their equine pals butchered in the pasture or barn when they went to feed them in the morning.
This is a very hotly debated subject in the equestrian community.
OK, thanks guys & gals for answering. Looks like my knowledge regarding the kind of meat eaten here is limited. How about cooked deer meat, does that fall in the same category as cooked horse meat. Deer hunting is popular in PA for all I know.
Has anyone tried eating cooked deer meat. I know there are a couple people out there in the woods who might have.
FYI, I am a pure vegetarian Hindu, so this is for the pursuit of knowledge. I will NEVER partake in foods which have meat, seafood, or mushrooms.
Deer meat or venison is VERY common in lots of regions.
Yuppy urban cities would most likely have very little exposure to deer. In more rural areas, you can easily pass by 5 trucks in one day with a dead deer strapped to the back of it during hunting season.

I have never seen sale of deer meat here in central NJ. However, I once stopped over at some rural region in Tennessee to fill up gas on my way to Atlanta. While there, I saw a person with deer strapped onto their pickup. Was Shocked , because nobody really hunts deer here at current.

It was cheaper than beef. We ate it during the times my dad would get laid off at the wire mill.
My mom would buy it at a shop called the Equine Market in Worcester, MA.
It tasted like tough steak, but the fat was yellow and didn't taste as good as beef fat.
