Horsemeat Scandal In Europe

Horsemeat Scandal in Europe By Elton Camp “Beef” is a word that’s loosely applied Although to most, cow meat is implied It’s off to the slaughterhouse with old Mag It seems it’s been the same with the old nag Let’s hope you have a stomach that’s strong It’s been shown they’ve done this right along But, the facts I’m forced to admit, of course There’s no special hazard in eating a horse A person’s food choice is a cultural thing Chinese eat dogs, to the mind does spring In other places, people will eat a rat To me, plenty is wrong with that If I’ve ever eaten horse, I didn’t know it Otherwise, I likely would up throw it Nor would I choose a taste of a cat, But I’d greatly prefer it to eating rat “So hungry I could eat a horse,” we say But, in Europe, many have done that way Should we check beef sold in the USA? I hope it says “Moo” and not “Neigh” It’s true that veganism has its benefit At least eating beef, I think I’ll quit Then there’s no problem if they say “We tested and found horse DNA”
