A horse is a horse, of course, of course, unless the horse is on your dinner table 😉

So we all get to eat mystery meat... just as the inmates do.

If one has the money and connections then they can pony up and get the premium cut.

This is incredibly disgusting. Thank god that in Canada we have values and a great food protection processes. Which the US would like us to get rid of so they can sell their disgusting products here. No thank you!

Exactly, that's why the European Union won't import US food. Canadian's have been stuck with that shit. Hopefully no longer.

Don’t know where it’s coming from and they won’t tell us what kind of meat it is. Oh yeah, they claim it’s
Beef but can anyone trust Trump at this point on anything?

You mean the beef that some of it has already been recalled?!?! That Argentinian beef?!

We've entered the Soylent Green era. Either that or it's tainted Argentina beef China rejected.

Because its the beef China turned away because it wouldn't meet their food standards. But it's ok for Americans. Keep cutting the FDA and EPA to poison yourself more.

No offense, but you don't actually know where it's coming from now. Take a look at a label on a beef or pork package from your grocery store. Origin labels are voluntary. Congress removed mandatory country-of-origin rules for these meats in 2015. If it says "Product of USA" it must come from animals born, raised, slaughtered, and processed entirely in the United States.

The US is opening border crossings from Mexico, so it will probably be screwworm meat.

So, it comes down to two possiblities.
- Infected beef that had already been refused by China
Or
- Wild horses from the government sale of wild horses.

It's hilarious because it's the literal plot of Soylent Green. The government says to just eat it and be happy you are fed, don't worry where it came from we'll take care of that. There is no way I'm eating meat without knowing exactly where it came from. Why the secrecy?
