Is it ok to eat horsemeat? We asked pupils in Stockholm. I think it is quite sad for the horse because even they have a life for themselves and its really quite sad if human beings just kill it and eat it up. It s really sad. Horses are fed drugs which can cause serious blood problems to humans so I think it s definitely not good to eat horsemeat. I think; why should we eat horses when we don t eat cats and dogs and they lied that they were selling horses in the supermarkets. It s certainly really not good to lie to people because if people get sick from eating that meat and they complain to the police, they won t be able to sell meat in stores any more. And that will be a problem for everyone because we all like hamburgers and pizzas and lasagnes. sad här: sorglig fed drugs få mediciner serious allvarligt to lie att ljuga get sick blir sjuk complain klaga Lady Gaga has an operation 1
